Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof
as soon as they are no longer used. These
accessories lower air penetration and adversely
affect consumption levels. When needing to carry
particularly voluminous objects, preferably use a
trailer.
Electric devices
Use electric devices only for the amount of time
needed. Rear heated window, additional headlights,
windscreen wipers and heater fan need a
considerable amount of energy, therefore increasing
the requirement of current increases fuel
consumption (up to +25% in the urban cycle).Climate control
The air conditioner is an additional load which
greatly affects the engine leading to higher
consumption (on average up to +20%). When the
temperature outside the vehicle permits it, use the
air vents where possible.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified aerodynamic items may
adversely affect air drag and consumption levels.

DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine with the car at a standstill
or at idle or high speed: under these conditions the
engine warms up much more slowly, increasing
electrical consumption and emissions. It is therefore
advisable to move off immediately, slowly, avoiding
high speeds. This way the engine will warm faster.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid accelerating when waiting at traffic lights or
before switching off the engine. This and also
double declutching is absolutely pointless on
modern cars and also increase consumption and
pollution.
Gear selection
As soon as the conditions of the traffic and road
allow, use a higher gear. Using a low gear to obtain
brilliant performance increases consumption.
In the same way improper use of a high gear
increases consumption, emissions an engine wear.
Top speed
Fuel consumption considerably increases with
speed. Keep speed as constant as possible, avoid
superfluous braking and accelerating, which cost in
terms of both fuel and emissions. Acceleration
Accelerating violently increasing the revs will
greatly affect consumption and emissions:
acceleration should be gradual and should not
exceed the maximum torque.
CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short journeys and frequent cold starts do not allow
the engine to reach optimum operating temperature.
This results in a significant increase in consumption
levels (from +15 to +30% on the urban cycle) and
emission of harmful substances.
Traffic situations and road conditions
Rather high consumption levels are tied to
situations with heavy traffic, for example in queues
with frequent use of the lower gears or in cities with
many traffic lights. Also winding mountain roads
and rough road surfaces adversely affect
consumption.
Traffic hold-ups
During prolonged hold-ups (e.g.: level crossings) the
engine should be switched off.

INSTALLING THE TOW HOOK
The towing device should be fastened to the body
by specialised personnel according to any additional
and/or integrative information supplied by the
Manufacturer of the device.
The towing device must meet current regulations
with reference to 94/20/EC Directive and
subsequent amendments.
For any version the towing device used must match
the towable weight of the vehicle on which it is to
be installed.
For the electric connection a unified connector
should be used which is generally placed on a
special bracket normally fastened to the towing
device, and a special ECU for external trailer light
control shall be installed on the car. For the electrical connection 7 or 13 pins 12VDC
connection is to be used (CUNA/UNI and ISO/DIN
Standards). Follow the instructions provided by the
car manufacturer and/or the tow hitch
manufacturer.
An electric brake should be supplied directly by the
battery through a cable with a cross section of no
less than 2.5 mm
2.
IMPORTANT Electric brake or other device shall be
used with running engine.
In addition to the electrical branches, the car’s
electric system can only be connected to the supply
cable for an electric brake and to the cable for an
internal light, though not above 15W.
For connections use a preset control unit with
battery cable no less than 2.5 mm
2.

CAR INACTIVITY
If the car is to be left inactive for longer than a
month, the following precautions should be noted:
❒park the car in covered, dry and if possible well-
ventilated premises;
❒engage a gear;
❒check that the handbrake is not engaged;
❒disconnect battery terminals (first disconnect the
negative terminal) and check the battery charge.
This check is to be repeated every three months
when the car is left inactive. Recharge if the
optical indicator shows a dark colour without the
central green area;
❒clean and protect the painted parts using
protective wax;
❒clean and protect the shiny metal parts using
special compounds readily available;❒sprinkle talcum powder on the rubber
windscreen and rear window wiper blades and
lift them off the glass;
❒slightly open the windows;
❒cover the car with a cloth or perforated plastic
sheet. Do not use sheets of non-perforated plastic
as they do not allow moisture on the car body to
evaporate;
❒inflate tyres to +0.5 bar above the normal
specified pressure and check it at intervals;
❒if you don’t disconnect the battery from the
electric system, check its charge every month
and recharge it if the optical indicator shows a
dark colour without the central green area;
❒do not drain the engine cooling system.

GENERAL WARNINGS
Failure indications shown on the reconfigurable
multifunction display together with buzzer
sounding (adjustable) and warning light (if any)
coming on on the cluster, are accompanied by
specific warning messages (e.g.: “Switch off
engine”, etc...). These indications are concise and
cautionary and are aimed to suggest the prompt
action the driver must adopt when a car
malfunctioning appears. These indications,
however, shall not be considered as exhaustive
and/or as an alternative to the specifications
contained in this “Owner Handbook”, which shall
always be read through carefully and thoroughly. In
case of failure indication always refer to the
specifications contained in this section.
IMPORTANT Failure indications displayed on the
reconfigurable multifunction display are divided
into two categories: very serious failures and
serious/minor failures.
The message and the warning indication
corresponding to very serious failures are displayed
alternately for few seconds. This “cycle” is repeated
indefinitely and it stops any previous indication on
the display. It is displayed every time the ignition
key is turned to MAR, until the cause of
malfunctioning is removed. Should failure disappear, message and warning light
will however stay on for about 2 seconds.
Eliminating the failure, the warning light and the
displayed message will go off. It is possible to stop
this “cycle” by pressing button Q; in this case the
screen active before the failure will be resumed and
the warning light will stay on until eliminating the
failure cause.
The message and the warning indication
corresponding to serious/minor failures are
displayed alternately for few seconds. This “cycle”
is repeated for about 20 seconds and then goes off,
but it comes on again every time the ignition key is
turned to MAR.
Should failure disappear during the 20 seconds
displaying, message and warning light will stay on
for about 2 seconds. Eliminating the failure, the
warning light and the displayed message will go off.
At the end of the display cycle (which lasts approx.
20 seconds), or if button Qis pressed, the screen
active before the failure will be resumed and the
warning light will stay on until eliminating the
failure cause.
Q= Press button “MODE” for less than two seconds
R= Press button “MODE” for over two seconds

ENGINE COOLANT FLUID HIGH TEMPERATURE
Turning the ignition key to MAR the warning light on the dial turns
on, but it should go off after few seconds.
The warning light turns on (together with the message on the display)
when the engine is overheated. If the warning light comes on when
driving, proceed as follows:
❒normal driving conditions: stop the car, switch off the engine and
check whether the water level in the reservoir is not below the MIN
mark. Otherwise wait for few seconds to allow engine cooling, then
open slowly and carefully the cap, top up coolant and check
whether its level is falling between MIN and MAX marks in the
reservoir. Check visually any leak. If when restarting the warning
light comes on again, contact a Lancia Dealership;

❒car heavy duty(e.g.: towing trailer uphill or fully laden car):
decrease speed, if the warning light stays on, stop the car. Wait for
2 or 3 minutes leaving the engine on and slightly accelerated to
further activate the circulation of the coolant fluid, then switch the
engine off. Check proper coolant level as described previously.
IMPORTANT Under severe use of the car, keep the engine on and
slightly accelerated for few minutes before switching it off.ç
