forced disablement (air recirculation always off, air
drawn in from the outside), - the LED on button
Tshould be off;
forced engagement (air recirculation always on), the
LED on button
Tshould be lit up.
When OFF is pressed, the climate control system auto-
matically activates air recirculation (the LED on button
Tshould be on). It is still possible to activate outside
air recirculation (LED on the button is off) and vice ver-
sa, by pressing button
T.
With the OFF button pressed (LED on the button is lit
up), it is not possible to enable the AQS (Air Quality Sys-
tem) function.
IMPORTANT The air recirculation system makes it pos-
sible to reach the required heating or cooling conditions
faster. Do not use the air recirculation function on
rainy/cold days as it would considerably increase the pos-
sibility of the windows misting up inside, especially if the
climate control system is not switched on. It is advisable
to switch internal air recirculation on while in queues or
in tunnels to prevent the introduction of polluted air. Do
not use the function for a long time, particularly if there
are many passengers on board, to prevent the windows
from misting up.Enabling the AQS (Air Quality System) function
The AQS function (AQS appears on the display), auto-
matically activates internal air recirculation when the out-
side air is polluted (e.g. in traffic queues and tunnels).
IMPORTANT With the AQS function active, after 15 con-
secutive minutes of the internal air recirculation system
functioning, the climate control system enables the intake
of outdoor air for approximately 1 minute to freshen the
air in the passenger compartment. This takes place re-
gardless of the pollution level of the outside air.

98GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
With the engine hot, work with caution inside
the engine compartment to avoid burns. Do
not place your hands near the fan: it may
switch on even if the ignition key has been removed.
Wait for engine cooling.
Pay attention to scarves, ties and other loose
fitting garments. If they accidentally touch
moving parts, they may get dragged in, pos-
ing serious risk to the wearer.
To close fig. 65
Proceed as follows:
hold the bonnet up with one hand and with the other
remove rod C from seat D and fit it back into its catch;
Lower the bonnet to approximately 20 centimetres
above the engine compartment and let it drop. Make
sure that the bonnet is completely closed and not on-
ly fastened by the safety catch by trying to open it. If
it is not fully closed, open the bonnet and repeat the
procedure. Do not simply press it.
For safety reasons, the bonnet must always
be fully closed while travelling. Make sure
that the bonnet is perfectly closed and that
the lock is engaged. If you discover that the bonnet
is not perfectly closed while travelling, stop imme-
diately and close the bonnet in the correct manner.

156STARTING UP AND DRIVING
Keep your speed down when snow chains are
fitted. Do not exceed 50 km/h. Avoid potholes,
steps and pavements and avoid also driving
for long distances on roads not covered with snow
to avoid damaging the car and the roadbed.
SNOW CHAINS
The use of snow chains should be in compliance with lo-
cal regulations.
Snow chains may be applied only to the front wheel tyres
(drive wheels).
Check the tension of the chains after the first few metres
have been driven.
IMPORTANT The spare wheel cannot be fitted with snow
chains. If the front tyre has a puncture, replace a rear wheel
with the spare wheel and move the rear wheel to the front
axle. This way, having two standard size wheels on the
front axle, is it possible to fit the chains.
EXTENDED CAR INACTIVITY
If the car is to be left inactive for longer than a month, the
following precautions should be observed:
park the car in covered, dry and if possible well-ven-
tilated place;
engage a gear;
check that the handbrake is not engaged;
disconnect battery negative terminal and check the bat-
tery charge (see paragraph “Battery - Charge and elec-
trolyte level check” in chapter “5”);
clean and protect the painted parts of the vehicle with
protective wax;
clean and protect the shiny metal parts using special
compounds readily available;
sprinkle talcum powder on the rubber windscreen and
rear window wiper blades and lift them off the glass;
slightly open the windows;
cover the car with a fabric or perforated plastic sheet.
Do not use compact plastic sheets which do not allow
humidity to evaporate from the surface of the car;
inflate the tyres to a pressure of +0.5 bar above the
normal specified pressure and check the pressure at
regular intervals;
do not drain the engine cooling system.

ENGINE COOLANT B-fig. 1-2-3
The coolant level must be checked when the engine is cold
and must be between the MIN and MAX lines on the ves-
sel. If the level is low, slowly add a mixture of 50% dis-
tilled water and 50% PARAFLU UP of the FL Selenia
Group through the filler neck until the level reaches MAX.
The mixture of 50% PARAFLU UP and distilled water
provides protection from freezing down to a temperature
of –35°C. For particularly harsh environmental conditions
use a mixture of 60% PARAFLU UP and 40% distilled
water.Proceed very carefully inside the engine com-
partment when the engine is hot: risk of
burns. Remember that the fan may start up
if the engine is hot: risk of injury. Pay attention to
scarves, ties and other loose fitting garments: they
might get caught by moving components.
Don’t add any oil with different specifications
to those of the existing engine oil.
The exhausted engine oil and the replaced oil
filter contain substances that may be dan-
gerous for the environment. It is advisable
to have oil and filters changed by a Lancia Deal-
ership where they will be disposed of according to
the law.
PARAFLU UP antifreeze is used in the engine
cooling system. Use fluid of the same type
contained in the cooling system for top-ups.
PARAFLU UP may not be mixed with other types
of fluids. If this accidentally occurs, do not start the
engine and contact a Lancia Dealership.

210CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The engine cooling system is pressurized. If
required, replace the cap with an original
spare part so as not to compromise system ef-
ficiency. Do not remove the cap from the vessel when
the engine is hot: risk of burns.
WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW
WASHER FLUID C-fig. 1-2-3
To add fluid, remove the cap, pressing the special tab.
Pour a mixture of water and TUTELA PROFESSIONAL
SC35, in the following concentrations:
30% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35 and 70% water in
summer.
50% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35 and 50% water in
winter.
At temperatures below –20°C, use undiluted TUTELA
PROFESSIONAL SC35 fluid.
Check the level through the reservoir.
Close the cap by pressing its central section.
Do not travel with the windscreen washing
reservoir empty: the windscreen washer is
fundamental to improve visibility.
Some commercial windscreen washer additives are
flammable. The engine compartment contains hot
parts which could start a fire if they come into con-
tact.
BRAKE FLUID D-fig. 1-2-3
Undo the cap and check that the liquid contained in the
tank is at the maximum level. Fluid level in the reservoir
must not exceed the MAX mark. Use the brake fluid shown
in the “Fluids and lubricants” table (see chapter “6”).
NOTE Carefully clean the reservoir cap and the sur-
rounding surface.
When opening the cap, make sure that no dirt gets into
the reservoir.
For topping up always use a funnel with built-in filter
(mesh smaller than or equal to 0.12 mm).
IMPORTANT Brake fluid is hygroscopic (i.e. it absorbs
moisture). For this reason, if the car is mainly used in ar-
eas with a high degree of atmospheric humidity, the flu-
id should be replaced at more frequent intervals than spec-
ified in the “Scheduled Service Plan”.
