120GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
The sensor detects objects that are not there (“echo dis-
turbance”) caused by mechanical disturbances, for ex-
ample: washing the car, rain (extreme wind condi-
tions), hail.
The indications sent by the sensor can also be altered
by the presence of ultrasound devices (e.g. pneumat-
ic brake systems or pneumatic drills) near the car;
Parking sensor system performance can also be influ-
enced by the position of the sensors, for example due to
a change in the ride setting (caused by wear to the shock
absorbers, suspension), or by overloading the vehicle and
carrying out specific tuning operations that require the
vehicle to be lowered.
The ultimate responsibility when parking
and carrying out other dangerous manoeu-
vres still rests with the driver. When park-
ing, make sure that no-one is standing in the area,
especially children or animals. Parking sensors are
designed to assist drivers: in all cases, you must al-
ways pay the utmost attention during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres, even when these are carried
out a low speed.
ACCESSORIES PURCHASED
BY THE OWNER
If, after buying the car, you decide to install electrical ac-
cessories that require a permanent electrical supply (alarm,
satellite antitheft system, etc.) or accessories that in any
case burden the electric supply, contact a Lancia Dealer-
ship. Their qualified personnel, besides being able to sug-
gest the most suitable devices from the Lineaccessori Lan-
cia, will also evaluate the overall electric uptake, check-
ing whether the car’s electrical system is able to withstand
the required load, or whether a more powerful battery
needs to be installed.
INSTALLING ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC
DEVICES
Electrical and electronic devices installed after buying the
car, and also in the event of after-market service, must
carry the following label:
Fiat Auto S.p.A. authorises the installation of transceiv-
ing devices provided that they are installed according to
rules of good engineering practice in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions and at a specialised centre.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE213

BATTERY
The battery F-fig, 1-2-3 provided with this vehicle is a
“Reduced maintenance” battery: no top-ups with distilled
water are needed in normal conditions of use.
It should nevertheless be periodically checked by a Lan-
cia Dealership or specialised personnel to check its effi-
ciency.
The battery fluid is poisonous and corrosive.
Avoid contact with the skin and eyes. Keep
naked flames and sources of sparks away
from the battery: risk of explosion and fire.
Running the battery with an excessively low
liquid level will damage the battery beyond
repair and even cause an explosion.
CHANGING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with a genuine spare part
with the same specifications.
If a battery with different specifications is fitted, the ser-
vice intervals given in the “Scheduled Service Plan” will
no longer be valid.
Refer therefore to the instructions provided by the battery
manufacturer.
If the battery is disconnected, the áwarning light will co-
me on (together with a message in the display) to indica-
te that the system must be realigned. To switch the war-
ning light off, carry out the following initialization pro-
cedure:
turn the ignition key to the ON position;
turn the steering wheel fully both clockwise and anti-
clockwise (to move from the position with the wheels
straight);
turn the ignition key to the OFF position and then turn
it back ON.
If the áwarning light does not go out after a few seconds,
seek assistance from a Lancia Dealership.
