engine Lancia Delta 2010 Owner handbook (in English)

174STARTING 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.

176IN AN EMERGENCY
STARTING THE ENGINE
Go to a Lancia Dealership immediately if instrument pan-
el warning light
Yremains on constantly.
JUMP STARTING fig. 1
If the battery is flat, the engine may be started using an
auxiliary battery with the same capacity or a little high-
er than the flat one.
Proceed as follows to start the car:
❍connect the positive terminals (+ sign near the termi-
nal) of the two batteries with a jump lead;
❍with a second lead, connect the negative terminal –
of the auxiliary battery to an earth point E
on the en-
gine or the gearbox of the car to be started;
❍start the engine;
❍when engine has started, remove the cables by revers-
ing the sequence described for connection.
fig. 1L0E0074m
Never use a quick battery charger for an
emergency start: this could damage the elec-
tronic systems and the engine fuel feed and
ignition control units.
This starting procedure must be carried out
by expert personnel as incorrect manoeuvres
can cause electrical discharges of consider-
able intensity. Furthermore, battery fluid is poiso-
nous and corrosive: avoid contact with your skin
and eyes. Keep naked flames away from the battery.
No smoking. Do not cause sparks.

If after several attempts the engine will not start, do not
keep trying but contact a Lancia Dealership.
IMPORTANT Never connect the negative terminals of the
two batteries directly: sparks could ignite explosive gas re-
leased from the battery. If the auxiliary battery is installed
on another car, prevent accidental contact between metal-
lic parts of the two cars.
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by pushing, towing or dri-
ving downhill.
This could cause a flow of fuel into the catalytic convert-
er and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake servo and the
power steering system (if present) are not operative until
the engine is started, a greater effort will therefore be re-
quired to press the brake pedal or turn the steering wheel.QUICK TYRE REPAIR KIT -
FIX & GO AUTOMATIC
The quick tyre repair kitFix & Go automatic is placed in
the luggage compartment.
The kit fig. 2 includes:
❍a cylinder A containing sealing liquid and fitted with:
– a filling pipe B;
– an adhesive label C bearing the words “max. 80
km/h”, to be attached in a position easily visible to
the driver (on the dashboard) after tyre repair;

180IN AN EMERGENCY
INFLATION PROCEDURE
Put on the protective gloves provided togeth-
er with quick tyre repair kit.
❍Engage the handbrake. Unscrew the tyre valve cap,
take out the flexible filling pipe A-fig. 4 and screw
down the ring nut B on the tyre valve;
❍make sure that switch D-fig. 5 on the compressor is
in position 0 (off), start the engine, insert pin E-fig. 6
into the current socket and switch on the compressor
by placing switch D-fig. 5 in position 1 (on).
fig. 4L0E0077m
The cylinder contains ethylene glycol. Con-
tains latex: may cause an allergic reaction.
Harmful if swallowed. Irritates the eyes. May
cause sensitization by inhalation or contact. Avoid
contact with your eyes, skin and clothes. In the event
of contact, wash immediately with plenty of water.
Do not induce vomiting if swallowed. Rinse your
mouth and drink plenty of water. Call a doctor im-
mediately. Keep away from children. The product
must not be used by asthmatics. Do not breath in
the vapours during insertion and suction. Call a
doctor immediately if allergic reactions are noted.
Store the cylinder in the specific compartment, away
from sources of heat. The sealing fluid will expire.
Replace the cylinder containing expired seal-
ing liquid. Dispose of the cylinder and the
sealant liquid properly. Dispose according to
the national and local laws in force.

182IN AN EMERGENCY
❍after driving for about 10 minutes, stop and check the
tyre pressure again; remember to engage the hand-
brake;❍if, on the other hand, a pressure of at least 1.8 bar pres-
sure is read, restore the correct pressure (with engine
running and handbrake on) and continue driving;
❍drive with the utmost care to the nearest Lancia Deal-
ership.
Apply the adhesive label in a position clear-
ly visible by the driver as a reminder that the
tyre has been treated with the quick repair
kit. Drive carefully, particularly on bends. Do not
exceed 80 km/h. Do not accelerate and brake sud-
denly.
Stop if the pressure has dropped to less than
1.8 bars: The automatic Fix & Go fast repair
kit cannot work properly because the tyre is
excessively damaged. Contact a Lancia Dealership.
Remember to inform the workshop that the
tyre has been treated with a quick repair kit.
Give the instruction booklet to the tyre repair
workshop personnel.

danger for on-coming traffic and where you can re-
place the wheel safely. The ground must be flat and
compact;
❍turn the engine off and engage the handbrake;
❍engage first gear or reverse;
❍lift up the luggage compartment mat using handle A-
fig. 10 (in the presence of a double load platform, first
lift the upper cover and then the luggage compartment
mat);
❍loosen the fastener B-fig. 10;
❍take out the tool box C and place it next to the wheel
to be changed;
❍remove the small spare wheel D-fig. 10;
❍use the provided screwdriver to remove the hub cap,
levering the dedicated opening on the outer edge;
