AIRBAG FAILURE (red)
Turning the key to the MAR-ON position
illuminates the warning light, but it should switch
off after a few seconds. The warning light switches
on constantly (on some versions, with a message
on the display and a symbol on the display) to
indicate an airbag system fault.
WARNING
If when turning the key to MAR the
warning light
does not turn on
or stays on whilst driving, a failure may have
occurred in the restraint systems. In this
case the air bags or pretensioners may not
be deployed in an impact or, in a lower
number of cases, they may be deployed
accidentally. Before continuing, contact a
Lancia Dealership immediately to have the
system checked.
WARNING
A fault with the
warning light is
indicated by flashing of the
warning light, which signals the
deactivation of the passenger side front air
bag. In addition, the airbag system
automatically disables the air bags on the
passenger's side (both front and side airbags
for versions/markets, where provided). In
this case, the warning light
may not
indicate a fault in the restraint systems.
Before continuing, contact a Lancia
Dealership immediately to have the system
checked.
PASSENGER/SIDE AIR BAGS
DEACTIVATED (amber)
The
warning light switches on when the front
passenger's airbag and side bag are disabled. With
front passenger airbag on, when the ignition key
is turned to MAR, the
warning light switches on
constantly for several seconds, it flashes for
another few seconds and then it should switch off.
