After tyre replacement
stow the small spare wheel D-fig. 10 in the space pro-
vided in the luggage compartment;
fit the partially-opened jack in its box, forcing it light-
ly to prevent it from vibrating when travelling;
put the tools back into place in the container;
stow the container, complete with tools, into the spare
wheel and tighten the locking device B-
fig. 10;
put back the luggage compartment mat into the prop-
er position.
IMPORTANT Do not use an inner tube with tubeless tyres.
Periodically check the inflation pressure of the tyres and
small spare wheel.
IMPORTANT If you choose to install wheels of a different
type (with alloy rims instead of the steel ones or vice ver-
sa) you must change all the retaining bolts with others of
a suitable size and use a specific small spare wheel, with
different specifications.
It is advisable to keep the replaced bolts and small spare
wheel, as they are necessary if in future you decide to re-
install the original wheels.CHANGING A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Before changing a bulb check the contacts for oxida-
tion;
blown bulbs must be replaced with others of the same
type and power;
after replacing a headlight bulb, always check its align-
ment for safety reasons;
when a bulb is not working, check that the corre-
sponding fuse is intact before replacing it: refer to the
“Replacing fuses” paragraph in this chapter for fuse
location.
Modifications or repairs to the electrical sys-
tem that are not carried out properly or do
not take the system’s technical specifications
into account can cause malfunctions leading to the
risk of fire.

Halogen bulbs contain gas under pressure, if
they break, glass fragments may be dis-
persed.
IMPORTANT A slight misting may appear on the inter-
nal surface of the headlight: this does not indicate a fault
and is caused by low temperature and the degree of hu-
midity in the air. Misting will rapidly disappear when the
headlights are switched on. The presence of drops inside
the headlights indicates water penetration. Contact a Lan-
cia Dealership
When handling halogen bulbs, only touch the
metal part. Touching the transparent part of
the bulb with your fingers may reduce the in-
tensity of the emitted light and even compromise the
life of the lamp. In the event of accidental contact,
wipe the bulb with a cloth moistened with alcohol
and leave it to dry.
Where possible, it is advisable to have bulbs
changed at a Lancia Dealership. The correct
operation and orientation of the external
lights is essential for safe driving. You may be li-
able to fines if this is not the case.
