REFITTING THE STANDARD WHEEL
Following the procedure described previously, raise the
car and remove the space-saver wheel.
Versions with steel rims
Proceed as follows:
❍make sure the contact surfaces between standard wheel
and hub are clean so that the fastening bolts will not
come loose;
❍ fit the standard wheel inserting the 4 bolts into the
holes;
❍ using the spanner provided, tighten the fixing bolts;
❍ press-fit the hub cap, aligning the special splining (on
the cap) with the inflation valve;
❍ lower the car and remove the jack;
❍ using the spanner provided, fully tighten the bolts in
the sequence shown previously.

Versions with alloy rims
❍Place the wheel onto the hub and tighten the bolts us-
ing the spanner provided;
❍ lower the car and remove the jack;
❍ using the spanner provided, fully tighten the bolts in
the sequence shown in fig. 8;
❍ refit the press-fitted hub cap, making sure that the ref-
erence hole on the wheel is aligned with the reference
pin on the cap.
IMPORTANT If it is not fitted properly, the hub cap may
detach when the vehicle is running.
At the end of the operation
❍ Stow the space-saver wheel D - fig. 10 in the space pro-
vided in the luggage compartment;
❍ fit the partially open jack in its box forcing it lightly to
prevent it from vibrating when travelling;
❍ put the tools back into place in the box;
❍ stow the container, complete with tools, in the space-
saver wheel and tighten the locking device B - fig. 10;
❍ reposition the luggage compartment mat correctly. IMPORTANT Do not use air chambers tubes with tube-
less tyres. Check the inflation pressure of the tyres and the
space-saver wheel periodically.
Various fixing bolts and space-saver wheels,
specific and differing in structural charac-
teristics, are used depending on the wheel rim
type (alloy or steel). Fixing bolts for alloy rims can
be identified by the presence of a permanent wash-
er and a hollow side on the bolt head.
Therefore, you will need to contact a Lancia Deal-
ership to get the correct type of fixing bolts and
space-saver wheel if you change the type of wheels
fitted (alloy rims instead of steel rims, or vice ver-
sa). Keep the bolts fitted as standard in case of re-
use of the wheels originally mounted on the car.

REPLACING A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
❍Before changing a bulb, check the contacts for oxida-
tion;
❍ burnt-out bulbs must be replaced by others of the same
type and power;
❍ always check the direction of the beam after chang-
ing a headlight bulb, for safety reasons;
❍ when a light is not working, check that the corre-
sponding fuse is intact before changing the bulb. For
the location of fuses, refer to the “Replacing fuses”
paragraph in this chapter.
IMPORTANT The headlight inner surface might be slight-
ly misted: this does not indicate a fault, it is a natural phe-
nomenon due to low temperature and the air humidity lev-
el. Misting will disappear rapidly when the headlights are
turned on. The presence of drops inside the headlights in-
dicates infiltration of water. Contact a Lancia Dealership.
Modifications or repairs to the electric sys-
tem that are not carried out properly or do
not take the system technical specifications
into account can cause malfunctions leading to the
risk of fire.
Halogen bulbs contain gas under pressure, if
they break glass fragments may be thrown
around.
When handling halogen bulbs just touch the
metal part. If the transparent bulb is touched
with the fingers, its lighting intensity is re-
duced and life of the bulb may be compromised. In
the event of accidental contact, wipe the bulb with
a cloth moistened with alcohol and leave it to dry.
Where possible, it is advisable to have bulbs
changed at a Lancia Dealership. Proper op-
eration and direction of the external lights
are essential for driving in safety and comply with
law.

212IN AN EMERGENCY
IMPORTANT When the weather is cold or damp or after
heavy rain or after washing, the surface of headlights or
rear lights may steam up and/or form drops of conden-
sation on the inside. This is a natural phenomenon due
to the difference in temperature and humidity between the
inside and the outside of the glass which does not indicate
a fault and does not compromise the normal operation of
lighting devices. The mist disappears quickly when the
lights are turned on, starting from the centre of the dif-
fuser, extending progressively towards the edges.
TYPES OF BULBS fig. 14
Various types of bulbs are fitted to your car:
A. Glass bulbs: they are press-fitted. Pull to remove them.
B. Bayonet type bulbs: to remove this type of bulb fromits holder press the bulb, turn it anticlockwise and re-
move it.
C. Tubular bulbs: to remove, release them from their con- tacts.
D-E. Halogen bulbs: to remove the bulb, release the clip holding the bulb in place.
