climate control Lancia Ypsilon 2003 Owner handbook (in English)

CAR MAINTENANCE
The Lancia Y is brand new throughout, even in
its servicing schedule. Its design and manufactur-
ing process have made the traditional check at
1,500 kilometres unnecessary, which means its
first service schedule coupon is to be used at
20,000 kilometres. Your car, however, still re-
quires a certain amount of care and attention e.g.
the various fluid/liquid levels and tyre pressure
must be systematically checked and topped up if
necessary.
You should nonetheless bear in mind that proper
car maintenance is certainly the best way to keep
your car in tip-top condition for years to come and
safeguard its safety features, its environmentally-
friendly nature and its cheap running costs.
Also remember that the following servicing reg-
ulations marked with the symbol ∑are essential
to ensure the warranty remains valid.SCHEDULED SERVICING ............................. 121

IMPORTANT - Battery
You should check the battery charge
preferably at the beginning of the
winter to avoid the possibility of the
electrolyte freezing up.
This check should be performed
more frequently if the car is mainly
used for short trips, or if it is fitted
with accessories that absorb energy
even when the ignition key is re-
moved, especially if they are after-
market accessories.
You should check the battery fluid
(electrolyte) level more frequently
than shown in the Service Schedule
(see “Car maintenance”) if the car is
used in hot climates or particularly
demanding conditions. IMPORTANT - Engine oil
Change the engine oil more fre-
quently than indicated in the Service
Schedule, if the car is normally driven
in one of the following particularly se-
vere conditions:
– towing a trailer or caravan
– on dusty roads
– short, repetitive trips (less than 7
or 8 kilometres) in outside tempera-
tures below zero
– engines that are frequently left to
idle or drive slowly over long dis-
tances.
IMPORTANT - Air cleaner
Change the air cleaner more often
than indicated in the Service Sched-
ule if you use the car on dusty roads.
If you are in doubt about how often
the engine oil or the air cleaner should
be changed in relation to how you use
the car, contact a LANCIA Dealer-
ship.IMPORTANT - Pollen filter
If the car is often used in dusty or
highly polluted areas, you should
change the pollen filtering element
more frequently, especially if you no-
tice that the amount of air entering
the passenger compartment is re-
duced.
IMPORTANT - Remote control
If the LED on the remote control
unit flashes only once when you press
the remote control button, you need
to replace the batteries.

BATTERY
The Lancia Y’s battery is of the
“Limited Maintenance” type: under
normal conditions, it requires no top-
ping up with distilled water.
REPLACING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with
a genuine spare part presenting the
same specifications. If a battery with
different specifications is fitted, the
frequencies shown in the Service
Schedule will no longer be valid. Re-
fer to the instructions provided by the
battery manufacturer.

POLLEN FILTER
Lift cover A (fig. 5), pull out the fil-
ter element Band replace it.
IMPORTANTFailure to replace the
filter can reduce the climate control
system’s efficiency considerably.
If the car is often used in dusty or
highly polluted areas, you should
change the pollen filtering element
more frequently, especially if you no-
tice that the amount of air entering
the passenger compartment is re-
duced.The pollen filter is only a stan-
dard fitting on cars equipped with
climate control system.
For cars without climate control,
provision has been made for fitting
the filter, which is available from
Lineaccessori LANCIA.

Batteries contain sub-
stances that are very
harmful for the environ-
ment. You are advised to have the
battery changed at a LANCIA
Dealership. It is properly equip-
ped for disposing of used batteries
in an environmentally-friendly
way that complies with the law.

2)Unscrew nut Band slide the com-
plete arm Cfrom the rotating pin.
3)Fit a new arm and fasten the nut.
Close the cover.
IMPORTANTBefore removing the
arm, mark the position of the wiper
(e.g. with felt-tip pen or adhesive
tape).SPRAY NOZZLES
If there is no jet of liquid, first make
sure that there is liquid in the reser-
voir: see “Checking fluid levels” in
this section.
Then make sure that the holes in the
nozzles(figs. 10 and11)are not
clogged up. Use a pin for this if nec-
essary.
The windscreen and rear window
washer jets can be adjusted.
The windscreen washer jet can be
adjusted by inserting a pin in the
aperture of each nozzle.
The rear window washer jet can be
adjusted by moving the nozzle-holder
with a screwdriver.CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM
During the winter, the climate con-
trol system must be turned on at least
once a month for about ten minutes.
Have the system checked at a LAN-
CIA Dealershipbefore the summer.
The system uses R134a
refrigerating liquid. If it
accidentally leaks it will
not damage the environment.
Never use R12 fluid as it is incom-
patible with the system’s compo-
nents and also contains CFC.

FUEL
CONSUMPTION -

2EMISSIONS
The fuel consumption values, in
litres x 100 km, indicated in the fol-
lowing tables, have been determined
according to homologation tests pre-
scribed in the European Directive
specifications. The following proce-
dures are used to define the con-
sumption values:Consumption values are defined by
means of the following procedures:
– an urban cycleconsisting of a
cold start and a simulated drive in
city streets;
– an extra-urban cycleconsisting
in frequent accelerations, in all gears,
simulating normal conditions of use.
Speed ranges from 0 to 120 km/h;
– the combined consumptionis
calculated as approximately 37% of
the urban cycle and approximately
63% of the extra-urban cycle. IMPORTANT Road and traffic
conditions, weather, general con-
ditions of the car, driving style, fit-
tings and accessories, use of the
climate control system, load, roof
racks and other situations penal-
ising aerodynamic penetration and
effecting rolling resistance will in-
fluence fuel consumption rates
which can be different from the
values shown in the table (see
“Cheap running that respects the
environment” in “Driving your
car” chapter).
Consumption may be greater during
the first 2000 km due to running in.
