TOWING THE CAR
The tow ring provided with the car is housed in the tool
box under the luggage compartment mat.
FASTENING THE TOW RING fig. 43-44
Proceed as follows:
❍release cap A;
❍take the tow hook B from its seat in the tool support;
❍tighten the ring on the rear or front threaded pin.
fig. 43L0E0090mfig. 44L0E0091m
Before starting towing operations, turn the ig-
nition key to MAR and then to STOP, without
extracting it. If the key is extracted, the steer-
ing wheel lock will be automatically activated, thus
preventing steering. The power brakes and the elec-
trical power steering will not work while the car is be-
ing towed. More effort on the brake pedal and steer-
ing wheel will therefore be required. Do not use wires
for towing. Do not jerk. Make sure not to damage parts
in contact with the car while towing. Respect the spe-
cific rules of the Highway Code when towing the car
specifically in relation to the towing device and the be-
haviour to maintain on the road. Do not start the en-
gine while towing the car.

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
come on (together with a message in the display) to indi-
cate that the system must be realigned. To switch the
warning 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.

234CARE AND MAINTENANCE
WHEELS AND TYRES
Check the pressure of each tyre, including the spare wheel,
approximately once every two weeks and before starting
a long journey: this check must be performed with the tyre
rested and cold.
It is normal for the pressure to increase when the car is
used; for the correct tyre inflation pressure, see “Wheels”
in chapter “6”.
Incorrect tyre pressure causes abnormal tyre wear fig. 4:
A normal pressure: evenly worn tread;
B low pressure: tread particularly worn on the edges;
C excessive pressure: tread particularly worn in the mid-
dle.
fig. 4L0E0096m
The tyres must be replaced when the tread is less than 1.6
mm thick. In all cases, follow the laws in force in the coun-
try where you are driving.
IMPORTANT NOTES
❍Avoid braking suddenly, burning starts and violent
knocks against the curb, potholes or other obstacles
where possible. Long distances on rough roads may
damage the tyres;
❍check the tyres regularly for cuts on the sides, swelling
or irregular tread wear. Go to a Lancia Dealership if
required;
❍do not overload your car: this may cause serious dam-
age to wheels and tyres;
❍if a tyre is punctured, stop immediately and change it
to avoid damage to the tyre, wheel rim, suspension and
steering system;

CARE AND MAINTENANCE235

❍the tyre ages even if rarely used. Cracks in the tread and
on the sidewalls are a sign of ageing. Have the tyres
checked by specialised personnel if they have been fit-
ted for longer than 6 years. Remember to check the spare
wheel very carefully;
❍when replacing the tyres, always fit new tyres, avoid-
ing those of dubious origin;
❍if a tyre is changed, also change the inflation valve;
❍to allow even wear between the front and rear tyres,
it is advisable to change them over every 10-15 thou-
sand kilometres, keeping them on the same side of the
car so as not to reverse the direction of rotation.
Remember that the road holding qualities of
your car also depend on the correct inflation
pressure of the tyres.
If the pressure is too low the tyre will get
overheated, with the risk of serious damage
to the tyre.
Avoid moving the tyres from the right side of
the vehicle to the left side and vice versa.
Do not repaint alloy wheel rims at temper-
atures higher than 150°C. The mechanical
characteristics of the wheels might be dis-
rupted.

BODYWORK
PROTECTION FROM ATMOSPHERIC AGENTS
The main causes of corrosion are the following:
❍atmospheric pollution;
❍salty air and humidity (coastal areas, or hot humid cli-
mates);
❍seasonal environment conditions.
The abrasive action of wind-borne atmospheric dust and
sand, as well as mud and gravel raised by other cars is
also not to be underestimated.
On your car, Lancia has implemented the best manufac-
turing technologies to effectively protect the bodywork
against corrosion.These include:
❍painting products and systems which give the car par-
ticular resistance to corrosion and abrasion;
❍use of galvanised (or pre-treated) steel sheets, with high
resistance to corrosion;
❍spraying the underbody, engine compartment, wheel-
house internal parts and other parts with highly pro-
tective wax products;
❍spraying of plastic parts, with a protective function, in
the most exposed points: underdoor, inner wing parts,
edges, etc.;
❍use of “open” boxed sections to prevent condensation
and pockets of moisture from triggering rust inside.
BODY AND UNDERBODY WARRANTY
Your car is covered by warranty against perforation due
to rust of any original element of the structure or body.
For the general terms of this warranty, refer to the War-
ranty Booklet.
