Diesel particulate filter clogged
(amber) (Multijet versions)
This warning light comes on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, but it should go off after
a few seconds. The warning light comes on when the diesel
particulate filter is clogged and the driving conditions do
not allow the automatic activation of the regeneration cy-
cle.
To allow the regeneration cycle to take place, keep the car
running until the warning light turns off.
The display will show a dedicated message.
h
Fuel reserve (amber)
This warning light comes on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, but it should go off af-
ter a few seconds. The warning light comes on
when about 5 to 7 litres of fuel are left in the tank.
The display will show a dedicated message.
IMPORTANT The warning light will blink to indicate a
system failure. Go to a Lancia Dealership to have the sys-
tem checked.
K
EOBD/injection system failure (amber)
Under normal conditions, the warning light
comes on when the ignition key is turned to
MAR, but should go off as soon as the engine is
started.
If the warning light remains on or comes on whilst driving,
this means that the injection system is not working prop-
erly; in particular, if the warning light comes on constantly,
this indicates a malfunction in the supply/ignition sys-
tem that could cause excessive exhaust emissions, a pos-
sible loss of performance, poor driveability and high fuel
consumption.
On certain versions a dedicated message is displayed. Un-
der these conditions, the vehicle can continue travelling at
moderate speed without demanding excessive effort from
the engine. Prolonged use of the car with the warning light
on may cause damage. Go to a Lancia Dealership as soon
as possible.
The warning light goes out after the fault is cleared, and
the indication is stored in the system.
Petrol engines only
If the warning light is flashing, this indicates that the cat-
alytic converter may be damaged.
If the light flashes, release the accelerator pedal to lower
the speed of the engine until the warning light stops flash-
ing; continue the journey at moderate speed, trying to avoid
driving conditions that may cause further flashing and con-
tact a Lancia Dealership as soon as possible.
U
Steering corrector not available
This warning light (or symbol on the display) comes on
when the steering corrector is not available. The display
will show a dedicated message.

Water in diesel fuel filter (Multijet
versions) (amber)
This warning light comes on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, but it should go off after
a few seconds. The warning light turns on when there is
water in the diesel fuel filter. The display will show a ded-
icated message.
c
The presence of water in the fuel system cir-
cuit may cause severe damage to the injection
system and irregular engine operation. If the
cwarning light comes on (together with a message
on the display on some versions), go to a Lancia
Dealership as soon as possible to have the system
bled. Water may have been introduced in the tank if
this appears immediately after refuelling: in this
case, stop the engine immediately and contact a
Lancia Dealership.
ABS system failure (amber)
This warning light comes on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, but it should go off af-
ter a few seconds. The warning light lights up
when the system is either not working or not available.
Under these circumstances the braking system will work
as normal without the extra performance offered by the
ABS system.
Drive carefully to the nearest Lancia Dealership to have
the system checked.
The display will show a dedicated message.
>
Lancia Code system failure (amber)
This warning light (or symbol on the display),
when on constantly with the ignition key turned
to MAR, indicates a possible failure (see “Lancia
Code system” in chapter 1).
If the
Ywarning light (or symbol in the display) is blink-
ing, this means that the vehicle is not protected by the en-
gine inhibitor device (see “Lancia Code system” in chap-
ter 1).
Contact a Lancia Dealership to have all the keys stored.
Alarm failure (where provided)
A fault with the alarm system is signalled by this warn-
ing light (or symbol in the display) coming on. Contact a
Lancia Dealership as soon as possible.
The display will show a dedicated message.
Y
Glow plug heating failure
The warning light will blink in the event of a failure in the
glow plug preheating system. Go to a Lancia Dealership
as soon as possible.
The display will show a dedicated message.

124GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The devices for reducing petrol engine emissions are the
following:
three-way catalytic converter;
Lambda sensors;
fuel evaporation control system.
In addition, do not let the engine run, even for a test, with
one or more spark plugs disconnected.
The devices for reducing diesel fuel engine emissions are
the following:
oxidising catalytic converter;
exhaust gas recirculation system (E.G.R.).
diesel particulate filter (DPF) (where provided).
The catalytic converter reaches high temper-
atures during operation. Do not park on
grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other flam-
mable material: fire risk.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
(where provided)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechanical filter, inte-
gral with the exhaust system, that physically traps par-
ticulate present in the exhaust gases of Diesel engines. The
diesel particular filter has been adopted to almost totally
eliminate particulate in compliance with current / future
regulations. During normal use of the car, the engine man-
agement control unit records a set of data (e.g.: travel time,
type of route, temperatures reached, etc.) and it will then
calculate the amount of particulate trapped by the filter.
Since this filter physically traps particulate, it should be
regenerated (cleaned) at regular intervals by burning car-
bon particles. The regeneration procedure is controlled au-
tomatically by the engine management control unit ac-
cording to the filter conditions and car use conditions. Dur-
ing the regeneration procedure, the following situations
may occur: limited increase of idle speed, activation of
electric fan, limited increase of smoke, high temperatures
at the exhaust. These are not faults; they do not impair
car performance or damage the environment. If the ded-
icated warning message is displayed, refer to the section
“Instrument panel warning lights” in this chapter.

202CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Thousands of kilometres
Check engine management system operation (via diagnostic socket)
Replace auxiliary drive belt
Replace toothed timing drive belt (*)
Replace fuel filter
Replace air filter cartridge
Change engine oil and oil filter (versions without DPF)(or every 24 months)
Change engine oil and oil filter (versions with DPF)(**)
Change brake fluid (or every 24 months)
Change pollen filter (or every 15 months)
(*) Regardless of the km covered, the timing belt should be replaced every 4 years for particularly demanding use (cold climates,
driving in the city, idling for a long time) or in any case every 5 years.
(**) The engine oil and oil filter should be changed when the warning light on the dashboard comes on (see “Instrument panel warn-
ing lights”) or every 2 years.

204CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Perform the following inspections more frequently than
shown on the Scheduled Service Plan:
check front disc brake pad condition and wear;
check cleanness of bonnet and boot locks and linkage
cleanness and lubrication;
visually inspect the condition of: engine, gearbox,
transmission, pipes and hoses (exhaust – fuel supply
- brakes) rubber elements (gaiters – hoses - bushes
etc.);check battery charge and fluid level (electrolyte); (see
“Battery - Charge and electrolyte level check” in this
chapter);
visually inspect the condition of auxiliary drivebelts;
check and if necessary replace the pollen filter; in par-
ticular it should be replaced if a decrease in the air flow
into the passenger compartment is detected;
check the air filter and replace, if required.

212CARE AND MAINTENANCE
AIR FILTER/ POLLEN FILTER
Have the air filter or pollen filter replaced by a Lancia
Dealership.
DIESEL FUEL FILTER
DRAINING CONDENSED WATER
(Multijet versions) E-fig. 2-3
The presence of water in the feeding circuit
may cause severe damage to the injection sys-
tem and irregular engine operation. If the
warning light
cgoes on, contact a Lancia Dealer-
ship as soon as possible to have the system bled.
Water may have been introduced in the tank if this
appears immediately after refuelling: in this case,
stop the engine immediately and contact a Lancia
Dealership.
