REGULAR CHECKS
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys, check and, if
necessary, top-up the following:
❍engine coolant fluid level;
❍brake fluid level;
❍windscreen washer fluid level;
❍tyre pressure and condition;
❍operation of lighting system (headlights, direction in-
dicators, hazard lights, etc.);
❍operation of the windscreen wiper/washer system, po-
sition and wear of windscreen/rear window wiper
blades.
Every 3,000 km check and top up if required: engine oil
level.
You are advised to use PETRONAS LUBRICANTS prod-
ucts, which have been designed and produced specifically
for Lancia cars (see table “Capacities” in chapter “6”).
HEAVY-DUTY USE OF THE CAR
Should the prevailing use of the car be under one of the
following specially demanding conditions:
❍trailer or caravan towing;
❍dusty roads;
❍short (less than 7-8 km) and repeated journeys in sub-
zero temperatures;
❍frequently idling engine or long-distance, low-speed
driving (e.g. door-to-door deliveries), or in the event
of long-term inactivity;
❍urban routes;

WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW WASHER FLUID
C-fig. 1-2-3-4
Remove the cap, using the special tab, to add fluid.
Use a mixture of water and TUTELA PROFESSIONAL
SC 35, in the following concentrations:
❍30% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 and 70% wa-
ter in summer.
❍50% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 and 50% wa-
ter in winter.
At temperatures below −20 °C, use undiluted TUTELA
PROFESSIONAL SC 35 fluid.
Check level through the reservoir.
Close the cap by pressing the centre section.
Do not travel if the windscreen washer
reservoir is empty: using the windscreen
washer is essential for improving visibility.
Some commercial windscreen washer additives
are flammable. The engine compartment contains
hot parts which could start a fire if they come into
contact.
BRAKE FLUID D-fig. 1-2-3-4
Undo the cap and check that the liquid contained in the
reservoir is at the maximum level. The fluid level in the
reservoir must not exceed the MAX mark. If you need to
top up, you should use the brake fluid shown in the “Flu-
ids and lubricants” table (see chapter “6”).
NOTE Carefully clean the cap of the reservoir and the
surrounding surface.
Take great care to ensure that impurities do not enter the
reservoir when the cap is opened.
For topping-up, always use a funnel with integrated fil-
ter with mesh equal to or lower than 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 fluid
should be replaced at more frequent intervals than spec-
ified in the “Scheduled Servicing Programme”.

244SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
RUBBER HOSES
As far as the brake system and fuel rubber hoses are con-
cerned, follow the “Scheduled Servicing Programme” in
this chapter carefully.
Ozone, high temperatures and prolonged lack of fluid in
the system may cause hardening and cracking of the
hoses, with possible leaks. Careful checking is therefore
necessary.
WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW
WIPER
BLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part using special products;
TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 is recommended.
Replace the blades if the rubber edge is deformed or worn.
In any case, it is advisable to replace them approximately
once a year.
A few simple precautions can reduce the possibility of
damage to the blades:
❍make sure that the rubber part is not frozen to the
windscreen in sub-zero temperatures. Use an an-
tifreeze product to release it if required;
❍remove any snow from the glass: in addition to pro-
tecting the blades, this prevents effort from the motor
and overheating;
❍do not operate the windscreen and the rear screen
wipers on dry glass.
Driving with worn wiper blades is a seri-
ous hazard, because visibility is reduced
in bad weather.

Changing the windscreen wiper blades fig. 6
Proceed as follows:
❍lift the windscreen wiper arm and position the blade
so that it forms an angle of 90° with the arm;
❍press tab A and remove the blade from the arm;
❍insert the new blade making sure it is locked into
place.

Changing the rear window wiper blade fig. 7
Proceed as follows:
❍raise the cover A and remove the arm from the car,
slackening the nut B that fastens it to the pivot pin;
❍fit the new arm, positioning it correctly, and fully
tighten the nut;
❍lower the cover.

SPRAY NOZZLES
Windscreen washer fig. 8
If the jet of fluid is inadequate, firstly check that there is
fluid in the reservoir (see “Checking fluid levels” in this
chapter).
Then check that the nozzle holes are not clogged, if nec-
essary clean them using a needle.
The windscreen jets are directed by adjusting the nozzle
angle.
The jets should be directed at about a third of the height
from the top edge of the windscreen.
IMPORTANT In versions with a sun roof, make sure that
the sun roof is closed before operating the front jets.

Rear window washer fig. 9
The rear window washer jets are fixed. The nozzle holder
is on the rear window.

Hard Black versions
Detergents pollute the environment. Only
wash the car in areas equipped for the col-
lection and purification of the fluids used in
the washing process.
Glasses
To clean glasses, use specific window cleaner products.
Also use clean cloths to avoid scratching the glass or dam-
aging the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window inside gently with
a cloth in the direction of the filaments to avoid damag-
ing the heating device.
Engine compartment
At the end of each winter, thoroughly wash the engine
compartment, taking care to avoid spraying the water jet
directly onto the electronic control units and the re-
lay/fuse control unit on the left side of the engine com-
partment (as you look from behind the wheel). Have this
operation performed at a specialised workshop.
IMPORTANT The washing should take place with the en-
gine cold and the ignition key in the STOP position. Af-
ter the washing operation, make sure that the various
protections (e.g. rubber caps and guards) have not been
removed or damaged.
Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g.:
petrol) or ketones (e.g.: acetone) for cleaning the front
headlight plastic lenses.
In order to preserve the aesthetic appearance
of the paintwork abrasive products and/or pol-
ishes should not be used for cleaning the car.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be washed off imme-
diately and carefully as the acid they contain is particu-
larly aggressive.
It is recommended to avoid washing with
rollers and/or brushes in car wash stations.
Thus, wash the car only by hands using neu-
tral pH detergents; dry it with a wet chamois leather.
Abrasive products and/or polishes should not be used
for cleaning the car. Bird droppings must be washed
off immediately and thoroughly as the acid they con-
tain is particularly aggressive. Avoid (if possible) to
park your car under trees; remove immediately veg-
etable resins as, when dried, they could only be re-
moved with abrasive products and/or polishes that
are not recommended as they could possibly alter the
typical paint opacity. Do not use pure windscreen
washer fluid for cleaning the front windscreen and
rear screen; dilute it min. 50% with water.
