ACCESSORIES PURCHASED
BY THE OWNER
If you decide to install electrical accessories after the car
has been purchased which require a permanent electric
power supply (alarm, anti-theft, satellite based etc.) or
accessories which have a serious impact on the electrical
balance, seek assistance from a Lancia Dealership be-
cause their qualified staff will suggest the most suitable
Lancia Lineaccessori devices and assess the overall elec-
tric consumption, checking whether the car’s electrical
system can cope or whether a more powerful battery is
required.ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC DEVICE
INSTALLATION
The electric/electronic devices installed subsequent to the
purchase of the car and included in the after-sales service
must be marked:
Fiat Group Automobiles S.p.A. authorises the installation
of transceiver devices on condition that such installations
are carried out in a workmanlike fashion, following the
manufacturer’s instructions, at a specialised centre.
IMPORTANT Traffic authorities may not allow the ve-
hicle on the road if devices are fitted that modify vehicle
specifications. This may also invalidate the warranty in
relation to faults caused by the change or either directly
or indirectly related to it. Fiat Group Automobiles S.p.A.
shall not be liable for damage caused by the installation
of accessories either not supplied or recommended by Fiat
Group Automobiles S.p.A. and/or not installed in com-
pliance with the provided instructions.

224SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is essential in guaranteeing a long life
for the car under the best conditions.
Lancia has prepared a series of checks and service oper-
ations to be carried out every 30,000 kilometres (for
petrol versions) or every 35,000 kilometres (for diesel
versions).
It is, however, important to remember that scheduled ser-
vicing does not completely cover all the car’s requirements:
even in the initial period before 30,000/35,000 km, and
then subsequently between one service and another, or-
dinary care is always required such as routine checks in-
volving topping up fluid levels, checking tyre pressures
etc...
IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing Coupons are required
by the manufacturer. Failure to carry them out may in-
validate the warranty.Scheduled Services are offered by all Lancia Dealerships
according to a set time schedule.
If during each operation, in addition to the ones sched-
uled operations, the need arises for further replacements
or repairs, these may only be carried out with the express
agreement of the Customer.
IMPORTANT You are advised to contact a Lancia Deal-
ership in the event of any minor operating faults, with-
out waiting for the next service coupon.
If the car is used frequently for towing a trailer, the in-
terval between services should be reduced.

PRESCRIPTIONS FOR HANDLING THE VEHICLE
AT THE END OF ITS LIFE
Lancia has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant improvement of its
production processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly compatible with the ecosystem. To assure
customers of the best possible service in terms of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Direc-
tive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of their life, Lancia is offering their customers the opportunity of
handing over their vehicle* at the end of its life without incurring any additional costs.
The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over the last keeper or owner should not incur any
expenses as a result of its market value. In particular, in almost all European Union countries, until 1
stJanuary 2007,
vehicles registered after 1stJuly 2002 will be collected free of charge, whilst from 2007 collection will be free of charge
irrespective of the year of registration as long as the vehicle contains its basic components (in particular, the engine and
bodywork) and has no additional waste.
To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, go to one of our Lancia dealerships or authorized
collection and scrapping centres. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality service for the collec-
tion, treatment and recycling of vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from a Lancia Dealership or by call-
ing the freephone number 00800 526242 00 or on the Lancia website.
