IGNITION SWITCH
The key can be turned to four posi-
tions (fig. 2).
STOP: engine off, key can be re-
moved, steering column locked. Some
electrical devices can be worked (e.g.
sound system).
MAR: driving position. All electrical
devices can be worked.
AVV: engine ignition.
PARK: engine off, parking lights on,
key can be removed, steering column
locked. To turn the key to PARK,
press button A.
STEERING COLUMN LOCK
To engage the lock: remove the ig-
nition key at STOP or PARK and
turn the steering wheel until it locks.
To release the lock: rock the steer-
ing wheel slightly as you turn the ig-
nition key to MAR.

If the ignition switch has
been tampered with (e.g.
someone has tried to steal
your car), get a Lancia Dealership
to make sure it is still functioning
properly before you start driving
again.
Always remove the igni-
tion key when you get out
of the car. This will pre-
vent anyone from accidentally
working the controls. Remember
to apply the handbrake and, if the
car is faced down on a steep slope
engage the first gear. If it is facing
up, engage the reverse gear.
Never remove the ignition
key while the car is mov-
ing. The steering wheel
would automatically lock as soon
as you try to turn it. This also ap-
plies when the car is being towed.
It is absolutely forbidden
to carry out whatever af-
ter-market operation in-
volving steering system or steering
column modifications (e.g.: instal-
lation of anti-theft device) that
could badly affect performance
and safety, cause the lapse of war-
ranty and also result in non-com-
pliance of the car with homologa-
tion requirements.
