IMPORTANT The SEARCH stage in the system logic is
deactivated after about 10 mins if a suitable parking space
is not identified.
❍ Identification: if the system identifies a free parking
space that is a suitable size for the vehicle, it signals its
presence and indicates the actions required for starting the
manoeuvre.
❍ Manoeuvre: the driver is asked to engage reverse gear
and release the steering wheel and manage the accelera-
tor, brake and clutch (in case of manual gearbox) or ac-
celerator and brake (in case of automatic transmission).
During the reverse parking manoeuvre, the system man-
ages the steering wheel automatically. 

It suggests that the manoeuvre be concluded in reverse
gear (if the conditions permit) when the continuous sound
of the buzzer for the rear sensors is heard. 

IMPORTANT The MANOEUVRE stage in the system log-
ic is deactivated after about 3 mins if the parking ma-
noeuvre has not been completed.

❍ Manoeuvre end: if the parking space is sufficient, the
parking manoeuvre is completed by the system in a sin-
gle movement; the further intervention of the driver is not
required to position the vehicle. If further corrective ma-
noeuvres are required, the system gives back control to the
driver who must complete parking manually.

IMPORTANT Steering will be realigned after reversing
when reverse gear is disengaged. The driver must com-
plete the manoeuvre manually.

The operation of the parking assistance is
based on different components: 

❍ front and rear parking sensors; 

❍ side sensors; 

❍ steering; 

❍ wheels and braking system; 

❍ instrument panel.
It is necessary to bear in mind that a malfunction
in one of these systems could compromise the op-
eration of the Magic Parking system.

DESCRIPTION OF MANOEUVRING STAGES

Activation

The system is activated by pressing the 

S

button and, as

soon as it is activated, the system starts the search stage.
The LED in the button coming on indicates that the sys-
tem is activated. Since the system recognises parking
spaces even when it is deactivated, the system can be ac-
tivated straight away after having driven past an adjacent
parking space that is deemed suitable. If the system has
effectively identified a parking space, the search stage will
not be performed and the system will notify the driver of
the operations required to carry out the manoeuvre.

Search for a parking space
During the search stage fig. 80 the vehicle should con-
tinue following its route at a speed lower than approxi-
mately 30 km/h and at a distance of around 50 cm to
130 cm from parked cars. A parking space is considered
suitable if it is about 130 cm longer than the dimensions
of the vehicle.

There are two possible types of parking:
❍ parking space about 160 cm longer than the dimen-
sions of the car: 
parking can take place in a single ma-
noeuvre; 
❍ parking space about 130 cm longer than the dimen-
sions of the car: 
parking in more than one manoeuvre,
where only the first one can be carried out by automatic
steering management (the subsequent manoeuvres are en-
tirely the responsibility of the driver).

KNOWING YOUR CAR

To select the search and manoeuvring side, the driver
must: 

1) D

Choose to carry out the search for the space and

the manoeuvre on the passenger side with:
❍ the direction indicator in the middle position;
❍ the hazard warning lights on;
❍ the hazard warning lights on and the direction indi-

cator in the passenger side position;

❍ the direction indicator pointing towards the passenger

side. 

2) F Choose to carry out the search for the space and the

manoeuvre on the driver side with:

❍ the direction indicator in the driver’s side position;
❍ the hazard warning lights on and the direction indi-

cator in the driver side position;

The system will notify the driver, on the side in which the
search and the manoeuvre are taking place by means of ded-
icated messages in the instrument panel display and the
symbols (F and D) different on the right and left sides. 

The search will, however, take place on both sides, there-
fore it is possible to make the selection using the direc-
tion indicators even when having just driven past a park-
ing space that is deemed suitable. 

During the search stage, the speed must not exceed 30
km/h; when 25 km/h have been reached, the driver is sig-
nalled to decrease the speed; if a speed of 30 km/h is ex-
ceeded, the system is deactivated; in this case, the sys-
tem must be restarted by pressing the button 

S

.

If the Lane crossing function is activated (see “Exterior
lights” paragraph) the search for the parking space always
takes place on the passenger side. 

If the parking sensors are activated during the search for
a parking space (see “Front and rear parking sensors”
paragraph), the operation of the Magic Parking system
is deactivated.

The search for the parking space and the
parking manoeuvres must be carried out in
compliance with the current regulations of the

Highway Code.

Identifying a parking space fig. 81

If the system identifies a suitable parking space between
two stationary vehicles or between other obstacles (e.g. ob-
jects with an extensive side surface such as vehicles, box-
es, etc.) it will indicate that it has found a space and that
parking is possible. If the position reached is already suit-
able at the beginning of the manoeuvre, the system will ad-
vise the driver to engage reverse gear, otherwise it will re-
quest moving further forward.

On the request to engage reverse gear the driver should stop
the vehicle and engage reverse in order to confirm the wish
to start the manoeuvre; if the driver continues driving, af-
ter about 10 metres the system will no longer consider the
parking space identified and will start the search for new
suitable space.

Manoeuvre

The driver will have control over the movements of the ve-
hicle using the accelerator, brake and clutch (only on ver-
sions with manual gearbox) whilst the system will auto-
matically manage the steering to enter the parking space
identified in the best possible way.

During the manoeuvre it will be possible to take advantage
of the information coming from the parking sensors (when
reversing it is advisable to reach the area where the rear
sensors provide a continuous tone signal), but it is always
advisable to keep an eye on the surrounding area.

The vehicle can be stopped during the manoeuvre and,
whilst remaining stationary, reverse gear can temporarily
be released (for example, to allow a pedestrian to go by in
the area of the manoeuvre).

The speed should be less than about 7 km/h during the
manoeuvre, otherwise the parking manoeuvre will be in-
terrupted.

KNOWING YOUR CAR

If the driver carries out a voluntary or involuntary action
on the steering during the parking manoeuvre (touching it
or preventing its movement), the manoeuvre will be in-
terrupted.

If the road surface is very uneven or there are obstacles un-
der the wheels affecting the movement of the vehicle, pre-
venting it from continuing along the correct trajectory, the
manoeuvre may be interrupted. 

End of manoeuvre

If the size of parking space permits, the parking manoeu-
vre may be performed in one go; when reverse gear is re-
leased the wheels will be realigned and the manoeuvre will
be considered completed; the system will consequently be
deactivated. If the size of the parking space is smaller, park-
ing may require several manoeuvres: the driver will be ad-
vised to complete the parking manoeuvre manually through
a dedicated message on the instrument panel display.

General warnings
❍ The ultimate responsibility when parking, however, al-

ways rests with the driver. During these manoeuvres,
always make sure that no people, animals or objects are
within the manoeuvring area. The Magic Parking sys-
tem (like parking sensors) is designed to assist drivers:
in all cases, you must always pay the utmost attention
during potentially dangerous manoeuvres, even when
these are carried out a low speed:

❍ If the sensors undergo shocks influencing their position,

the system operation could be strongly degraded.

❍ If the sensors are dirty, covered by snow, ice or mud or

are repainted compared to the original conditions, the
system operation could be strongly degraded.

❍ It is extremely important, for the correct operation of

the system, that the sensors are always kept clean. Dur-
ing cleaning, make sure not to scratch or damage them;
avoid using dry or rough cloths. The sensors must be
washed using clean water, with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary. When using  special washing
equipment such as high pressure jets or steam clean-
ing, clean the sensors very quickly keeping the jet more
than 10 cm away.

If you wish to stop the steering wheel with
your hands during a manoeuvre, it is advis-
able to handle it firmly on the outer rim. Do

not try and keep your hands on the inside or hold
the spokes.

❍ Ultrasound source (e.g. pneumatic brakes of trucks or

air drills) nearby could negatively influence the sensor
performance.

❍ Sensors may detect a non-existent obstacle (echo in-

terference) due to mechanical interference, for exam-
ple while washing the car, rain, strong wind, hail. 

❍ The sensors might not detect objects of a particular

shape or made from particular materials (very thin
poles, trailer beams, panels, nets, bushes, parking de-
terrents, rubbish bins, motor vehicles, etc.). Always take
great care, checking that the car and its path are ef-
fectively compatible with the parking area identified by
the system.

❍ The use of (one or more) tyres or rims of a different size

to those present when the vehicle was purchased could
affect the operation of the system.

❍ If the battery is disconnected or very run down, before

the Magic Parking system is available it is necessary
to drive a few hundred metres, not in a straight line,
to initialise the system.

❍ If a trailer is fitted (with the plug correctly inserted) the

Magic Parking system will automatically be disabled.

❍ If the Magic Parking system is in “search in progress”

mode, the system could incorrectly identify a parking
space and carry out the manoeuvre (e.g. by a junction,
carriage track, roads crossing the direction of travel,
etc.)

❍ In the case of parking manoeuvres on roads on a gra-

dient, the performance of the system could be inferior
and it may deactivate. 

❍ If a parking manoeuvre is being carried out between

two vehicles parked on the pavement, the Magic Park-
ing system may cause the vehicle to mount the pave-
ment. 

❍ Some manoeuvres at very tight bends may not be car-

ried out. 

❍ Take great care to ensure that conditions do not change

during the parking manoeuvre (e.g. if there are persons
and/or animals in the parking area, moving vehicles,
etc.) and intervene immediately if necessary. 

❍ During parking manoeuvres, pay special attention to

vehicles approaching from the opposite direction. Al-
ways follow the Highway Code.

FRONT AND REAR PARKING SENSORS 
(combined with Magic Parking)
(
for versions/markets, where provided)
The parking sensors provide the driver with distance in-
formation when approaching obstacles in front of and be-
hind the vehicle (versions with 4 front and 4 rear sensors).
They are always combined with the Magic Parking func-
tion. The system therefore provides a further aid during
parking manoeuvres because it allows the identification
of obstacles outside of the driver’s field of vision. 

The driver is notified of the presence and distance of the
obstacle from the car by an acoustic signal with a fre-
quency which varies depending on the distance from the
obstacle (as the distance from the obstacle decreases the
frequency of the acoustic signal increases).

SENSORS

In order to measure the distance of obstacles, the system
uses 4 sensors located in the front bumper (where pro-
vided) fig. 82 and 4 sensors located in the rear bumper 
fig. 83.

Version with 8 sensors

On the version with 4 front sensors and 4 rear sensors, the
system is activated when reverse gear is engaged or by
pressing the button fig. 84. If there has been a request to
activate the Magic Parking function, the front and rear
sensors are not automatically activated during the search
for a parking space, but can be activated by pressing the
special button 

t

or by engaging reverse gear when the

speed is below around 15 km/h.
When reverse gear is released, the front and rear sensors
remain activated until a speed of around 15 km/h is ex-
ceeded to allow the parking manoeuvre to be completed.
The system can also be activated by pressing the button

t

in the central panel: a warning light in the button

switches on when the system is activated.

The  sensors are deactivated by pressing the button 

t

again or when a speed of 15 km/h is exceeded: the

warning light in the button is off when the system is not
active.
When the sensors are activated, the system starts to pro-
duce acoustic signals from the front or rear buzzers as soon
as an obstacle is detected with the frequency increasing as
the obstacle gets closer.
When the obstacle is less than about 30 cm away, the
sound becomes continuous. Depending on the position of
the obstacle (in front or behind) the sound is emitted by
the corresponding buzzers (front or rear). The obstacle
closest to the car is signalled.
The acoustic signal stops immediately if the distance of
the obstacle increases. The sound cycle remains constant
if the distance measured by the centre sensors remains un-
changed, whilst if this situation occurs for the side sen-
sors, the signal is interrupted after about 3 seconds (for
example, to prevent signals in the case of manoeuvres
alongside walls).

The responsibility for parking and other dan-
gerous manoeuvres always and in every case

lies with the driver. While carrying out these ma-
noeuvres, always make sure that no people (espe-
cially children) or animals are in the area con-
cerned. Parking sensors are designed to assist dri-
vers: in all cases, you must always pay the utmost
attention during potentially dangerous manoeuvres,
even when these are carried out a low speed.

KNOWING YOUR CAR

ACOUSTIC SIGNAL

The information concerning the presence and distance of
an obstacle from the car is transmitted to the driver by
means of acoustic signals from 2 buzzers installed in the
passenger compartment:
❍ a front buzzer warns of the presence of obstacles at the

front and a buzzer located at the rear warns of the pres-
ence of obstacles at the rear. This permits the driver to
perceive the direction (front/rear) of the obstacles.

Operation is automatically activated when reverse gear
is engaged.

The acoustic signal:
❍ increases as the distance between the car and the ob-

stacle decreases;

❍ becomes continuous when the distance between the car

and the obstacle is less than around 30 cm and stops
immediately if the distance increases;

❍ is constant if the distance is unvaried; if this situation

occurs for the side sensors, the indication will stop af-
ter about 3 seconds to avoid, for example, warning in-
dications in the event of manoeuvres alongside walls.

The sensor must be clean of mud, dirt, snow
or ice in order for the system to operate cor-
rectly. Be careful not to scratch or damage the

sensors while cleaning them. Avoid using dry, rough
or hard cloths. The sensors must be washed using
clean water, with the addition of car shampoo if nec-
essary. When using special washing equipment such
as high pressure jets or steam cleaning, clean the
sensors very quickly keeping the jet more than 10
cm away.

Only have the bumpers repainted or any re-
touches to the paintwork in the area of the
sensors carried out by a Lancia Dealership.

If the paint is incorrectly applied this could ad-
versely affect the operation of the parking sensors.

SENSOR OPERATING RANGE

The sensors allow the system to check the front part (ver-
sion with 8 sensors) and rear part of the vehicle.
Their position covers the middle and side areas of the front
and rear of the car. If an obstacle is located in a middle area,
it is detected when the distance is less than about 0.9 m
(front) and 1.30 m (rear).
If the obstacle is located at the side, it is detected at dis-
tances of less than 0.6 m.

OPERATION WITH TRAILER

The operation of the sensors is automatically deactivated
when the trailer’s electric plug is inserted in the car’s tow
hook socket. The sensors are automatically reactivated
when the trailer’s cable plug is removed.

IMPORTANT If you wish to leave the tow hook fitted when
there is no trailer, it is advisable to go to a Lancia Deal-
ership to have the system updated because the tow hook
could be detected as an obstacle by the centre sensors. 

FAULT INDICATIONS

Either symbol 

S

(if the Magic Parking system is fitted),

or symbol 

t

(if the Magic Parking is not fitted) will light

up on the display in combination with a message or with
instrument panel è warning light if parking sensor faults
are detected while reverse is engaged.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

During parking manoeuvres, pay the utmost attention to
any obstacles that could be located above or below the sen-
sors.

Under certain circumstances close objects located in front
of or behind the vehicle may not be detected and could
therefore cause damage to the vehicle or be damaged
themselves.

The following conditions may influence the performance
of the parking assistance system:
❍ Reduced sensor sensitivity and a reduction in the park-

ing assistance system performance could be due to the
presence on the surface of the sensors of: ice, snow,
mud, thick paint.

❍ The sensors detect a non-existent obstacle (echo in-

terference) due to mechanical interference, for exam-
ple when washing the vehicle, rain (strong wind), hail.

❍ The indications sent by the sensors can also be altered

by the presence of ultrasonic devices (e.g. truck pneu-
matic brake systems or pneumatic drills) near the car.

❍ The performance of the parking assistance system may

also be affected by the position of the sensors. For ex-
ample, if the geometry is altered (as a result of wear of
the  shock absorbers,  suspension) or the tyres are
changed, the vehicle is too heavily laden, specific tun-
ing is carried out that lowers the vehicle.

❍ The detection of obstacles to the upper part of the ve-

hicle is not guaranteed as the system is designed to de-
tect obstacles that could impact the lower part of the
vehicle.

INSTALLING ELECTRICAL/
ELECTRONIC DEVICES 

The electric/electronic devices installed subsequent to the
purchase of the car and included in the after-sales ser-
vice must be marked:

Fiat Group Automobiles S.p.A. authorises the installation
of transceiver devices on condition that such installations
are carried out in a workmanlike fashion, following the
manufacturer’s instructions, at a specialised centre.

IMPORTANT Traffic authorities may not allow the vehi-
cle on the road if devices are fitted that modify vehicle
specifications. This may also invalidate the warranty in
relation to faults caused by the change or either directly
or indirectly related to it. Fiat Group Automobiles S.p.A.
shall not be liable for damage caused by the installation
of accessories either not supplied or recommended by Fi-
at Group Automobiles S.p.A. and/or not installed in com-
pliance with the provided instructions.

ACCESSORIES PURCHASED 
BY THE OWNER

If after buying the car, you decide to install electrical ac-
cessories that require a permanent electric supply (radio,
satellite anti-theft system, etc.) or accessories that in any
case burden the electric supply, contact a Lancia Dealer-
ship, whose qualified personnel, besides suggesting the
most suitable devices from Lineaccessori Lancia, will al-
so evaluate the overall electric consumption, checking
whether the car’s electrical system is able to withstand the
load required, or whether it needs to be integrated with a
more powerful battery.

Take care when fitting additional spoilers,
alloy wheels or non-standard wheel hubs:
they could reduce the ventilation of the brakes

and affect efficiency under sharp, repeated brak-
ing or on long descents. Make sure that nothing ob-
structs the pedal stroke (mats, etc.).

REFUELLING THE CAR

OPERATION AT LOW TEMPERATURES

If the outside temperature is very low, diesel thickens due
to the formation of paraffin clots with consequent defec-
tive operation of the fuel supply system.
In order to avoid these problems, different types of diesel
are distributed according to the season: summer type, win-
ter type and arctic type (cold/mountain areas). If refu-
elling with diesel fuel whose specifications are not suitable
for the current temperature, it is advisable to mix
TUTELA DIESEL ART additive in the proportions shown
on the container. Pour the additive into the tank before
the diesel fuel.
When using or parking the vehicle for a long time in the
mountains or cold areas, it is advisable to refuel using lo-
cally available diesel fuel.
In this case, it is also advisable to keep the tank over 50%
full.

RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND MOBILE PHONES

Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile phones, CB
radios, amateur radio etc.) cannot be used inside the car
unless a separate aerial is mounted on the roof.

IMPORTANT The use of such devices inside the passenger
compartment (without a separate aerial), may cause the
car’s electronic systems to malfunction. This could com-
promise safety in addition to constituting a potential haz-
ard for passengers.

In addition, transmission and reception of these devices
may be affected by the shielding effect of the vehicle body.
As far as the use of EC-approved mobile phones is con-
cerned (GSM, GPRS, UMTS), follow the usage instruc-
tions provided by the mobile phone manufacturer.

increase in the tank. A little breathing off, while slackening
the cap is absolutely normal.

For diesel engines, only use diesel fuel for
motor vehicles in accordance with EN590 Eu-
ropean specifications. The use of other prod-

ucts or mixtures may damage the engine beyond re-
pair and consequently invalidate the warranty, due
to the damage caused. If you accidentally refuel with
another type of fuel, do not start the engine, and
drain the tank. If the engine has run, even for a very
short time, you will need to have the entire fuel sup-
ply system emptied in addition to the tank.

FILLING THE TANK

To fill the tank completely, top-up twice after the first click
of the fuel supply gun. Further top-ups could cause fail-
ures in the fuel supply system.

Do not bring naked flames or lit cigarettes
near the fuel tank filler: fire risk. Keep your
face away from the fuel filler to prevent

breathing in harmful vapours.
