tected a problem in one of the sys-
tems required for its operation. If the
problem persists, go to an authorised

tarily grasped the steering wheel.
The system is disabled and the ma-
noeuvre is controlled by the driver
again.

tivated for one of the following con-
ditions: manoeuvre concluded, speed

search stage too long, manoeuvre
stage too long, use of parking sensors
requested during the search stage,
incorrect vehicle trajectory as a re-
sult of obstacles at the wheels.

pleted by the driver.
❍The steering wheel has been
grasped during the manoeuvre.

rectly inserted).

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 S.p.A. authorises the installation of transceiver de-
vices 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 S.p.A. shall not be liable
for damage caused by the installation of accessories ei-
ther not supplied or recommended by FIAT S.p.A. and/or
not installed in compliance with the provided instruc-
tions.RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND CELLULAR PHONES
Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile phones, CB
radios, amateur radio etc.) cannot be used inside the car
unless a separate aerial is mounted on the roof.
IMPORTANT The use of such devices inside the passen-
ger compartment (without a separate aerial), may cause
the car’s electronic systems to malfunction. This could
compromise safety in addition to constituting a poten-
tial hazard for passengers.
In addition, transmission and reception of these devices
may be affected by the shielding effect of the vehicle
body. As far as the use of EC-approved mobile phones is
concerned (GSM, GPRS, UMTS), follow the instructions
for use provided by the mobile phone manufacturer.

230SERVICING 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.
