168STARTING UP AND DRIVING
Never jump start the engine by pushing, tow-
ing or driving downhill. This could cause a
flow of fuel into the catalytic converter and
damage it beyond repair.
HOW TO WARM UP THE ENGINE AFTER
IT HAS JUST STARTED
Proceed as follows:
❍drive off slowly, letting the engine turn at medium
speed. Do not accelerate abruptly;
❍do not demand maximum performance for the first few
kilometres. Wait until the engine coolant gauge starts
moving.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition key to STOP while the engine is idling.
IMPORTANT After a taxing drive, you should allow the
engine to “catch its breath” before turning it off by letting
it idle to allow the temperature in the engine compartment
to fall.
A quick burst on the accelerator before turn-
ing off the engine serves absolutely no prac-
tical purpose, it wastes fuel and is damaging
especially to turbocharged engines.
HANDBRAKE
The handbrake lever is located between the two front seats.
Pull the lever upwards to operate the handbrake.
The car should be braked after a few snaps
of the lever, if it is not, contact a Lancia Deal-
ership to have it adjusted.
When the handbrake lever is engaged and the ignition key
is on MAR, the instrument panel warning light xwill
light.
Proceed as follows to release the handbrake:
❍slightly lift the handbrake and press release button
A-fig. 1;
❍hold button A pressed and lower the lever. The x
warning light on the instrument panel will go out.
Press the brake pedal when carrying out this operation
to prevent the car from moving accidentally.

242CARE AND MAINTENANCE
INTERIOR
Periodically check that water is not trapped under the mats
(due to water dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.) which
could cause oxidisation of the sheet metal.
Never use flammable products, such as petrol
ether or rectified petrol to clean inside the car.
The electrostatic charges which are generat-
ed by rubbing during the cleaning operation may
cause a fire.
Don’t keep aerosol cans in the vehicle: risk of
explosion. Aerosol cans must not be exposed
to a temperature exceeding 50°C. When the
vehicle is exposed to sunlight, inner temperature can
greatly exceed this value.
CLEANING SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner. It is
advisable to use a moist brush on velvet upholstery.
Rub the seats with a sponge moistened with a solution of
water and neutral detergent.
INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior plastic parts with a moist
cloth and a solution of water and mild soap. Use specific
products for cleaning plastic, without solvents and specif-
ically designed to prevent damage to the appearance and
colour of the treated parts to remove grease and tough
stains.
IMPORTANT Never use spirit or petroleum to clean the
instrument panel.
