7 litres of fuel remaining.
Do not travel with the fuel tank almo st empty : any gaps
in fuel delivery could damage the catal ytic converter.

TRUMENT PANEL WARNING LIGHTS
Important information
The warning lights s witch on together with a dedicated
message and/or a buzzer where appropriate. The se indi-
cations are precautionary and as s uch mus t not be con-
s idered a s exhaus tive and/or alternative to the informa-
tion contained in the Owner Handbook, which y ou are ad-
vis ed to read carefully in all cases. Always refer to the in-
formation in thi s chapter in the event of a failure indica-
tion.
Low brake fluid level (red)Turning the key to the MAR pos ition illumi-
nates the warning light, but it s hould switch off
after a few s econds. The warning light switches
on when the brake fluid in the re servoir falls below the
minimum level, po ssibly due to a leak in the cir
cuit. The
dis play shows the dedicated message.

s witches on when the front brake pad s s how
s igns of wear; under thes e circumstances have
them replaced a s s oon as possible. The dis play s hows the
dedicated me ssage.
IMPORTANT Becaus e the car is equipped with a wear de-

Airbag failure (red)
When the key is turned to MAR, the warning
light switches on but it s hould switch off after
a few s econds. The warning light s tays on con-
s tantly if there is a fault in the airbag system.
The dis play will s how the dedicated me ssage.
¬
If the ¬warning light does not come on when
the key is turned to MAR or if it stays on with
the car in motion (together with the message
on the display) there could be a fault in the restraint
systems; under these circumstances, the airbags or
pretensioners may not be deployed in the event of
an impact or, more rarely, they could be deployed
accidentally. Contact a Lancia Dealership to have
the system checked immediately.
The failure of the ¬warning light is indi-
cated by the
“warning light flashing longer
than the expected 4 seconds, which signals
that the front passenger airbag is deactivated. In
addition, the airbag system automatically deacti-
vates the passenger side airbags (front airbag and
side bag). In this case, the
¬warning light may not
indicate failures in the retaining systems. Before
proceeding, contact a Lancia Dealership to have the
system checked immediately.
EBD failure
If warning lights x
(red) and>(amber) are
on at the s ame time with the engine running,
this indicates an EBD system failure or that the
system is not available. Earl y locking of the rear
wheels may occur in the event of sharp brak-
ing, possibly causing the car to s werve.
Drive very carefully to a Lancia Dealer ship to have
the system ins pected immediatel y. The dis play will s how
the dedicated message.x

Degraded engine oil should be replaced as
soon as possible after the warning light comes
on, and never more than 500 km after it first
comes on. Failure to observe the above indications
may result in severe damage to the engine and in-
validate the warranty. Remember that when the
warning light comes on, it does not mean that the
level of engine oil is low, so if the light flashes you
definitely do not need to top up the engine oil.
“Dualdrive” electric power steerin g
failure (red)
This warning light switches on when the igni-
tion key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off
after a few s econds.
The electric power steering system will not work when the
warning light i s on and cons iderably more effort is needed
on the s teering wheel. The car can still be s teered. In this
cas e, go to a Lancia Dealer ship. The dis play will s how the
dedicated me ssage.

“Dualdrive” electric steering engagement
The warning light s witches on (or the word

2. Degraded eng ine oil (only versions with DPF)
The warning light will turn on fla shing together with the
message on the di splay (for vers ions/markets where pro-
vided). Depending on the ver sions , the warning light fla sh-
ing mode s are as follows :
– for 1 minute ever y two hours ;
– cy cles of 3 minutes with intervals with the warning light
off for 5 s econds until the oil is changed.
After the firs t indication, at each engine s tart up the warn-
ing light will continue flas hing as described above until
the oil is changed. The dis play (for vers ions/markets ,
where provided), s hows a dedicated message together with
the warning light.
The flas hing of the warning light s hould not be consid-
er
ed as a fault, it s imply informs the customer that the
oil needs to be changed following normal car u se.
Remember that the deterioration of the engine oil i s accel-
erated by :
– mainly town use of the car which make s the DPF re-
generation proce ss more frequent
– us e of the vehicle for s hort drives, in which the engine
does not have time to reach its regular operating tem-
perature
– repeated interruption of the regeneration proce ss, sig-
nalled by the DPF warning light switching on.

Engine coolant overheating (red)
Turning the key to the MAR pos ition illumi-
nates the warning light, but it s hould switch off
after a few s econds. The warning light turn s on
when the engine is overheated. If the warning light s witch-
e s on when driving, proceed a s follows :
❍ when driving normally : stop the car, s witch off the en-
gine and check that the water level in the re servoir is
not below the MIN mark. If it is, wait for the engine
to cool down, then slowly and carefull y open the cap,
top up with coolant and check that the level is between
the MIN and MAX mark s on the res ervoir. Also check
vis ually for any fluid leaks . in this case, go to a Lan-
cia Dealers hip if the warning light should switch on
when the engine is started again.
❍ if the vehicle is used under demanding condition s (e.g.
towing trailers uphill or fully loaded): slow down and,
if the light s tays on, stop the car
. Wait for 2 or 3 min-
utes with the engine running and slightly accelerated
to further favour the coolant circulation. Then stop the
engine. Check the correct coolant level a s des cribed
above. IMPORTANT Over demanding routes
, it is advis able to
keep the engine on and s lightly accelerated for a few min-
utes before s witching it off. The di splay will s how the ded-
icated message.

When the key i s turned to MAR, the warning
light switches on but it s hould switch off after a
few seconds . The warning light turn s on cons tantly when
the DPF system needs to eliminate the trapped pollutant s
(particulate) thr
ough the regeneration proce ss.
The warning light doe s not come on ever y time the DPF
i s being regenerated, rather onl y when the driving condi-
tions are s uch that the driver need s to know it. To switch
the warning light off, the car mu st be kept moving until
the regeneration proce ss is completed.
On average, the process las ts 15 minutes . The best con-
ditions to complete the regeneration proce ss are reached
driving the car at about 60 km/h with engine speed over
2000 rpm. When this warning light switches on, it does
not indicate a car failure and thu s it s hould not be taken
to a works hop. A dedicated message will appear on the
dis play when the warning light s witches on (for ver-

Fuel reserve (amber)When the key is turned to MAR, the warning
light switches on but it s hould switch off after
a few s econds. The warning light s witches on

The driving speed must always be suitable
for traffic and weather conditions and the
driver must always comply with the High-
way Code. The engine can also be switched off if the
DPF warning light is on; nevertheless, repeated in-
terruptions of the regeneration process could cause
an early deterioration of engine oil. For this reason,
always wait until the warning light switches off be-
fore stopping the engine as described above. It is not
advisable to complete DPF regeneration with the
car stationary.If the warning light remains on or comes on whilst driving,
it means that the injection system is not working proper-
l y ; in particular, if the warning light come s on cons tant-
l y , this indicates a malfunction in the s upply/ignition sys-
tem that could caus e excessive exhaust emissions , a pos-
s ible loss of performance, poor driveabilit y and high fuel
cons umption. On some vers ions the dis play s hows the ded-
icated message. Under the se conditions , you may contin-
ue travelling at a moderate speed without demanding ex-
cessive effort from the engine. Prolonged u se of the car
with the warning light on con stantly may cau se damage.
G o to a Lancia Dealer ship as soon as possible.
The warning light s witches off if the malfunction di sap-
pears , but it is still stor
ed by the system.
