Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) no less than 95.

Diesel engines: only refuel with diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590.

The use of other products or mixtures may irreparably damage the engine with invalidation of the warrantydue to the damage caused.

ENGINE START-UP

Petrol engines with manual gearbox: make sure the parking brake is pulled (instrument panel warning lightxon); put the gear lever to neutral; press the clutch pedal down to the floor without touching the accelerator, then turnthe ignition key or the Keyless System knob to AVV and release it as soon as the engine starts.

Engines with automatic electronic transmission (COMFORTRONIC): make sure the parking brake is pulled (in-strument panel warning lightx on) and the gear lever is to P; hold the clutch pedal pressed down to the floorwithout touching the accelerator, then turn the ignition key or the Keyless System knob to AVV and release it as soonas the engine starts.

Diesel engines: make sure the parking brake is pulled; put the gear lever to neutral; press the clutch pedal downto the floor without touching the accelerator, then turn the ignition key or the Keyless System knob to MAR, andwait for the instrument panel warning lightm to go out, then turn immediately the ignition key or the KeylessSystem knob to AVV and release it as soon as the engine starts.

PARKING OVER FLAMMABLE MATERIAL

When functioning normally, the catalytic converter reaches high temperatures. For this reason do not parkthe car over inflammable material, grass, dry leaves, pine needles, etc.: fire hazard.

ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIESIf, after buying the car, you decide to add electrical accessories (that will gradually drain the battery), visit aLancia Dealership. They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the car's electric sys-tem can support the required load.

CODE card

Keep the code card in a safe place, not in the car. You should always keep the electronic code written on theCODE card with you in case you need to carry out an emergency start-up procedure.

SCHEDULED SERVICING

Correct maintenance of the car is essential for ensuring it stays in tip-top condition and safeguards its safetyfeatures, its environmental friendliness and low running costs for a long time to come.

THE OWNER HANDBOOK CONTAINS

information, tips and important warnings regarding the safe, correct driving of your car, and its mainte-nance. Pay particular attention to the symbols " (personal safety) #(environmental protection) (the carswellbeing).

PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

A system for continuously monitoring emission system components to ensure greater environmental protec-tion is fitted in your car.

TRAVELLING SAFELY AND IN HARMONY WITH NATURE

Safety and respect for the environment are the guidelines that inspired the THESIS design from thedrawing board onwards.

This concept has meant that the THESIS has been able to face and pass the strictest safety tests.So much so that, from this point of view, the car is the best in its class and has probably already incor-porated features that belong to the future.

In addition, ongoing research into new and effective features to help safeguard the environmentmakes the THESIS a car to imitate for this reason as well.

All versions are in fact equipped with environmental protection devices that reduce harmful exhaustfumes in compliance with the limits provided for by current legislation.

5/28/2018 Thesis 09-2007 [EN]

6/386

SAFEGUARDING THE ENVIRONMENT

Safeguarding the environment has directed the design and manufacturing of the THESIS right from

the start. The result is the use of materials and the perfection of devices that can reduce or sweep-ingly reduce harmful influences on the environment.

The THESIS is equipped with environment safeguarding devices which curtail harmful exhaust gasemissions, is ready to travel well ahead of the most stringent international pollution control stan-dards.

USE OF ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY MATERIALS

None of the cars components contain asbestos. Padding and the climate control system do not con-tain CFCs (chlorofluorocarbides) - the gases considered responsible for the destruction of the ozonelayer. Other substances that might pollute air and water tables, such as the cadmium in the rust-proofcoating of the bolts, have been completely replaced with substances that do not harm the environ-ment.

DEVICES FOR REDUCING PETROL ENGINE EMISSIONS

Three-way catalytic converter (catalytic exhaust pipe)

The exhaust system is equipped with a catalyst made up of noble metal alloys; it is housed in astainless steel container capable of withstanding the very high operating temperatures.

The catalyst converts the unburnt hydrocarbons, the carbon monoxide and the nitric oxides foundin the exhaust gases (though in small amounts, thanks to the electronic-injection ignition systems)into non-polluting substances.

When functioning normally, the catalytic converter reaches high temperatures. For this reason donot park the car over inflammable material (e.g. paper, fuel oil, grass, dead leaves, etc.).

Lambda sensors

The Lambda sensors detect the oxygen content in the exhaust gas. The signal sent by the oxygensensor is used by the injection system electronic control unit to constantly mix air and fuel in the cor-rect proportion.

Fuel evaporation canister

As it is impossible to stop the build up of petrol fumes, also when the engine is not running, the sys-

tem traps them in a special container holding active carbon.The fumes are sucked in from here and burnt while the engine is running.

5/28/2018 Thesis 09-2007 [EN]

8/386

DEVICES FOR REDUCING DIESEL ENGINE EMISSIONS

Oxidising catalytic converter

This device converts the polluting substances in the exhaust gas (carbon monoxide, unburnt hydro-carbons and particulates) into harmless substances, thus reducing the smokiness and smell associat-ed with diesel engine exhaust fumes.

The catalytic converter consists of a stainless steel case containing a honeycomb ceramic core inwhich there is the precious metal that carries out the catalysing action.

Exhaust Gas Recirculation (E.G.R.) system

This system recirculates or reuses part of the exhaust gas in a proportion which varies according toengine operating conditions.

When necessary, it is used for the control of nitrogen oxide emissions.

THESIS CONNECT infotelematicsystem, in its most refined version,includes: colour TV set, sound sys-tem with cassette player, CD-ROM/Audio CD player, CD-chang-er, GSM cell phone, navigator, tripcomputer and voice commands (for

certain functions of cell phone,audio system and navigator).

The following pages describe thesystem controls and main functions.The car is provided with a specialsupplement dealing with CONNECTinfotelematic system to be used asquick reference guide for using thesystem. Read through this supple-

ment carefully and keep it alwayswithin reach (e.g. in the glove com-partment).

IMPORTANT For the navigationsystem of the CONNECT, only useonly the original CD provided withthe car or, in any case other CDs ofthe same brand.

If you drive with the vol-ume too high you put bothyour own life and that of

others in jeopardy. You shouldadjust the volume so that you canhear noises from outside the car(e.g. horns, ambulance/police

sirens, etc.).

CONNECT CONTROLS (fig. 2)

The CONNECT system functionscan be managed by means of 29buttons and 2 rotating selectors(knobs). Certain controls have mul-

tiple functions that are dependent onthe system operating conditionsactive.

The type of function that can beactuated by means of the controlsdepend, in some cases, on how longthe button is pressed down (long orshort push), as shown in the follow-ing table.

The Lancia navigationsystem helps driver whilehe drives, by suggesting

vocally or graphically, the opti-mum routing to reach his presetdestination. Navigation systemsuggestions do not excuse driverfrom his full responsibilities dueto his driving behaviour and tohis compliance with road andother traffic regulations. Theresponsibility for road safetyalways lies with the car driver,and it falls on him in any case.

IMPORTANT The provided phoneis of the Single-Band type and there-fore if your network provider is notoperating with the 900 Mhz GSMstandard, coverage troubles may arisenotwithstanding the roaming. Contactyour network provider for further in-

formation.

It is absolutely forbiddento carry out whatever af-ter-market operation in-

volving steering system or steeringcolumn modifications (e.g.: instal-lation of anti-theft Device) thatcould badly affect performanceand safety, cause the lapse of war-ranty and also result in non-com-

pliance of the car with homologa-tion requirements.

STEERING COLUMN LOCK

The steering column lock isengaged automatically after remov-ing the ignition key.

IGNITIONSWITCH

The key can be turned to three dif-ferent positions (fig. 6):

STOP: engine off, key can be

removed, steering column locked.Some electrical devices can be oper-ated (e.g. CONNECT).

MAR: driving position correspond-ing to: dashboard on and steeringcolumn lock off. All the electricaldevices can be operated.

AVV: engine ignition. Release the

key as soon as the engine is started.

If the ignition switch hasbeen tampered with (e.g.someone has tried to steal

your car), get a LanciaDealership to make sure it is stillfunctioning properly before youstart driving again.

Always remove the igni-tion key when you get outof the car. This will pre-

vent anyone from accidentallyworking the controls. Rememberto apply the handbrake and, if

the car is faced down on a steepslope engage the first gear. If it isfacing up, engage the reversegear.

IMPORTANT For versions equip-ped with the recognition system,refer to paragraph Recognition sys-

tem (Keyless System) in this chap-ter.

Steering column lock always off

The user can set the conditionSteering column lock always offby means of the CONNECT menu.To set this mode, refer to the CON-NECT supplement provided withthe car.

In an emergency

The steering column lock cannot bedisengaged when the battery is rundown. In this case, open the bonnetwith the emergency key and connectan auxiliary battery to the car bat-tery.

Do not carry out thisprocedure if you lackexperience; if it is not

done correctly it can cause veryintense electrical discharges andthe battery might even explode.Contact a Lancia Dealership. Inany case, refer to paragraphJump starting.

The steering columnlock is not engaged if cen-tral door locking is actu-

ated by means of the emergencykey or if central locking is acti-vated automatically (Autoclosefunction).

The steering column lock is disen-gaged automatically when depress-ing the clutch pedal (versions withmanual gearbox) or brake pedal(versions with automatic transmis-sion).

Before opening the lug-gage compartment bonnetto reload the battery or to

connect an auxiliary battery, care-fully read and comply with the in-structions contained in the para-

graph If battery is to be discon-nected in the chapter In anemergency.

THE LANCIA CODE OPERATION I thi t th k t STOP

5/28/2018 Thesis 09-2007 [EN]

THE LANCIA CODESYSTEM

To further protect your car fromtheft, it has been fitted with anengine immobilising system (Lancia

CODE) which is automatically acti-vated when the ignition key isremoved. An electronic device, infact, is fitted in each ignition keygrip. The device transmits a radio-frequency signal when the engine isstarted through a special aerial builtinto the ignition switch. The modu-lated signal is a password. Only ifthe control unit recognises the key

can the engine be started.

OPERATION

Each time the ignition key isturned to STOP the Lancia CODEsystem will deactivate the engineelectronic control unit functions.

When the key is turned to MAR to

start the engine, the Lancia CODEsystem sends a password code to theengine control unit to deactivate thefunction lock. The encoded andvariable code, randomly selectedfrom over four billion possible com-binations, is only sent if, in turn, thesystem has recognised the codetransmitted by the electronic devicebuilt into the ignition key via an aer-

ial surrounding the ignition switch.If the code has not been recognised

IMPORTANT If symbolY lightsup when the car is running:

1) If the symbol lights up togetherwith the message VEHICLE PRO-TECTION SYSTEM FAULT, thismeans that the system is running aself-test (e.g. due to a voltage drop).

The first time you stop, you can testthe system as follows: switch the en-gine off by turning the ignition key toSTOP then turn the key back toMAR: the symbol will light up and goout in about 1 second. If the symbolremains on, repeat the above proce-dure, leaving the key at STOP forlonger than 30 seconds. If the prob-

lem persists, contact your LanciaDealership.

2) If the symbol stays on, thismeans that the code has not beenrecognised. In this case, turn the keyto STOP and then back to MAR. Ifthe engine remains immobilised, trywith the other keys provided withthe car. If you are still unable to

start the engine, carry out the emer-gency procedure (see chapter In anemergency), and contact yourLancia Dealership.

SYSTEM (KEYLESSSYSTEM)

(where provided)

The Keyless System is a recognitionsystem controlled by device A(fig. 17), called CID (CustomerIdentification Device), which per-forms the same functions as the keyprovided with the remote controlsupplied with the car. It does notrequire any manual action since itidentifies the person that holds thedevice as the owner of the car.

Therefore, it is enough for the dri-ver to bring the CID device with

and start the engine without havingto use the key.

In any case, the CID device isequipped with three buttons per-forming the same functions as theordinary radio-frequency remotecontrol that enable the driver toremotely operate on the car.Moreover, it includes the key for themechanical emergency actuation ofthe boot and door locks (in case theCID device battery or the car batteryare run down).

The buttons perform the followingfunctions (fig. 18):

button B for remote actuation ofcentral door opening and the simul-

button C for remote actuation ofcentral door locking, boot lockingand the simultaneous switching onof the electronic alarm

button D for remote tailgate

opening led E (where required) to indi-

cate code sending to the electronicalarm system receiver.

Identification occurs only if theCID owner is standing about 1 metrefar from the door that has to beopened or from the boot.

IMPORTANT The CID deviceoperation depends on several fac-tors, such as the possible interfer-ence with electromagnetic wavesemitted by external sources, the bat-tery charge and the presence ofmetal objects near the CID deviceand the car. In any case, operationscan be carried out by means of theemergency key included in the CIDdevice.

the emergency key included in theCID device.

The CID owner must take the fol-lowing precautions to be able tohave all the system functions avail-able:

For unlocking doors or boot, theCID device must be outside the carat a maximum distance of approx.one meter from the handle involved.

To actuate the ignition switchfunctions, the CID device must beinside the car.

If the CID device is taken away

from the car (e.g. it is kept inside abag or in a pocket) the doors cannotbe locked and the car started anymore.

If central locking has been acti-vated from inside the car by pressingthe button on the drivers doorpanel, it will only be possible to getinto the car by pressing the button

on the CID device.

Where system is unable to identifythe CID device (e.g. the CID batteryis flat) the car can be accessed byusing the emergency key existing

inside the CID itself.When switched on, the alarm sys-

tem will be actuated when the dooris opened and the siren will startsounding but will be switched off byturning the starting knob to MAR.

Car start-up will moreover be possi-ble by positioning the CID into thespecial seat A (fig. 21), located in

front of the gear lever. Under theseconditions, such compartment is theonly position capable of acknowledg-ing the presence of a CID deviceinside the passenger compartment.

the engine.

Do not expose the CIDdevice to electromagneticfields or high-intensity

radio frequency sources, to avoidoperation anomalies. Heavyshocks or exposure to direct sun-

light could damage the electroniccomponents of the device.

IMPORTANT Do not lay the CIDdevice outside the car on the sunroof,to avoid a fake identification of theCID itself as if inside the car. It is rec-ommend to carry about with you theCID device (e.g. into a pocket).

During emergency or servicingoperations, the CID device shall behoused in the dashboard centraloddment compartment A (fig. 21) infront of the gear lever.

The electronic component in theCID device is of the passive typeand does not require dedicatedpower supply; it can therefore oper-ate in garage position even if theCID device battery is run down.

This function can be switched offby acting on the CONNECT settings.

The Autoclose function is not actu-ated in the following cases:

If, when the driver moves awayfrom the car, one or several doors arenot closed correctly, automatic lock-ing will not be actuated and the cardoors and boot will remain open: theowner is warned of this by the failedblinking of direction indicators.

If at the time of moving away,other CID devices are identified as

existing in the car passenger com-partment or in the luggage compart-ment, or if the knob is not set to theSTOP position (instrument panelturned on or engine started).
