e s on when driving, proceed a s follows :
❍ when driving normally : stop the car, s witch off the en-
gine and check that the water level in the re servoir is
not below the MIN mark. If it is, wait for the engine
to cool down, then slowly and carefull y open the cap,
top up with coolant and check that the level is between
the MIN and MAX mark s on the res ervoir. Also check
vis ually for any fluid leaks . in this case, go to a Lan-
cia Dealers hip if the warning light should switch on
when the engine is started again.
❍ if the vehicle is used under demanding condition s (e.g.
towing trailers uphill or fully loaded): slow down and,
if the light s tays on, stop the car

. Wait for 2 or 3 min-
utes with the engine running and slightly accelerated
to further favour the coolant circulation. Then stop the
engine. Check the correct coolant level a s des cribed
above. IMPORTANT Over demanding routes
, it is advis able to
keep the engine on and s lightly accelerated for a few min-
utes before s witching it off. The di splay will s how the ded-

prog ress (only versions with DPF) (amber)
When the key i s turned to MAR, the warning
light switches on but it s hould switch off after a
few seconds . The warning light turn s on cons tantly when
the DPF system needs to eliminate the trapped pollutant s
(particulate) thr

ough the regeneration proce ss.
The warning light doe s not come on ever y time the DPF
i s being regenerated, rather onl y when the driving condi-
tions are s uch that the driver need s to know it. To switch
the warning light off, the car mu st be kept moving until
the regeneration proce ss is completed.
On average, the process las ts 15 minutes . The best con-
ditions to complete the regeneration proce ss are reached
driving the car at about 60 km/h with engine speed over
2000 rpm. When this warning light switches on, it does
not indicate a car failure and thu s it s hould not be taken
to a works hop. A dedicated message will appear on the
dis play when the warning light s witches on (for ver-

Fuel reserve (amber)When the key is turned to MAR, the warning
light switches on but it s hould switch off after
a few s econds. The warning light s witches on

The driving speed must always be suitable
for traffic and weather conditions and the
driver must always comply with the High-
way Code. The engine can also be switched off if the
DPF warning light is on; nevertheless, repeated in-
terruptions of the regeneration process could cause
an early deterioration of engine oil. For this reason,
always wait until the warning light switches off be-
fore stopping the engine as described above. It is not
advisable to complete DPF regeneration with the
car stationary.If the warning light remains on or comes on whilst driving,
it means that the injection system is not working proper-
l y ; in particular, if the warning light come s on cons tant-
l y , this indicates a malfunction in the s upply/ignition sys-
tem that could caus e excessive exhaust emissions , a pos-
s ible loss of performance, poor driveabilit y and high fuel
cons umption. On some vers ions the dis play s hows the ded-
icated message. Under the se conditions , you may contin-
ue travelling at a moderate speed without demanding ex-
cessive effort from the engine. Prolonged u se of the car
with the warning light on con stantly may cau se damage.
G o to a Lancia Dealer ship as soon as possible.
The warning light s witches off if the malfunction di sap-
pears , but it is still stor

ed by the system.
EOBD/injection sy stem failure (amber)
Under normal condition s, when the ignition ke y

Go to a Lancia Dealership as soon as possi-
ble if U warning light either does not light
up when the key is turned to MAR or if while
travelling the warning light comes on either con-
stantly or flashing (on some versions along with a
message in the display). The operation of the U
warning light may be checked by the traffic con-
trol authorities using specific devices. Comply with
the laws and regulations of the country where you

This warning light (or symbol on the display ),
when on cons tantly with the ignition key turned
to MAR, indicates a possible failure ( see “Lancia
Code system”).
If the
Ywarning light (or symbol in the display) is flas h-
ing with engine running, this means that the car is not pro-
tected by the engine immobilis er device (see “Lancia
Code system”).
Contact a Lancia Dealer ship to have all the keys pro-
grammed.

When the key i s turned to MAR, the warning
light switches on, but it s hould switch off after a
few seconds . The warning light (amber), or symbol in the
dis play (red), switch on when the inflation pre ssure of one
or more ty res falls below a pres et level. In this way the TPMS
warns the driver and s ignals the possibility of the tyre be-
ing dangerous ly deflated and a probable puncture (s ee para-
graph “TPMS ” in this chapter).
IMPORTANT Do not continue driving with one or more
flat tyre s as handling may be compromised. Stop the car,
avoiding har sh braking or steering manoeuvres. Replace
the wheel immediately with the space-saver wheel (for
vers ions /markets wher

e provided) or carr y out a repair
u sing the dedicated kit ( see “Changing a wheel” in the
chapter “4”) and contact a Lancia Dealer ship as s oon

Should two or more ty res be flat, the dis play will s how the
indications corresponding to each ty re in sequence. Re-
s tore the correct inflation pre ssure values as s oon as pos-
s ible (s ee paragraph “Cold inflation pre ssures” in chap-
ter “6”).
T yre pressure unsuitable for speed
When the key is turned to MAR, the warning light (for
vers ions /markets , where provided) s witches on, but it
s hould switch off after a few s econds.
S hould it be necessary to travel at a speed higher than 160
km/h, inflate the t yre s more than the pressure value s pec-
ified in paragraph “Inflation pressures” in chapter “6”.
If the TPMS (for versions/markets where provided) de-
tects that the pr

essure of one or more t yre s i s uns uitable
for the current s peed, the warning light or symbol will
s witch on (together with the message on the di splay ) (see
“T yre pre ssure low” paragraph in this chapter) and it will
s tay on until the car s lows down to a s peed below the pre-
s et thres hold (see “TPMS ” paragraph in thi s chapter).
IMPORTANT In this case, slow down immediately because
t y re overheating could damage t yre performance and
durability beyond repair, and may even make the tyre ex-
plode.
Particularly strong radio-frequency inter-
ference may cause the TPMS to function in-
correctly. The driver is notified of this con-
dition through a message (for versions/markets,
where provided).
The message will disappear automatically as soon
as the interference ceases to disturb the system.
