lever into one of the required positions (the diagram is shown on the
knob).
IMPORTANT The car can only be put into reverse gear when it has

To change gears properly you must push the clutch pedal fully down. It is therefore
essential that there is nothing under the pedals: make sure mats are lying flat and do
not get in the way of the pedals.
WARNING
Do not drive with your hand resting on the gear lever as the force exerted, even if slight, could lead
over time to premature wear on the gearbox internal components.

IMPORTANT Do not use the quick repairing kit if
the tyre is damaged due to driving with the wheel
flattened.IT SHOULD BE NOTICED THAT:
The sealing fluid of the quick tyre repair kit is
effective with external temperatures between –20 °C
and +50 °C.
The sealing fluid has limited life.
In the event of a puncture caused by foreign bodies, it is possible to repair tyres showing damages
on the track or shoulder up to max 4 mm diameter.
The compressor shall not be operated for more than 20 minutes. Risk of
overheating!. Tyres repaired with the quick tyre repair kit shall be used
temporarily only.WARNING
Repairs are not possible in case of damages on the wheel rim (bad groove
distortion causing air loss). Do not remove foreign bodies (screws or nails) from
the tyre.WARNING
Holes and damages on the tyre side walls cannot be repaired. Do not use the
quick tyre repair kit if damaging is due to running with flat tyre.WARNING

It is of vital importance to communicate that the tyre has been repaired using the
quick tyre repair kit. Hand the instruction brochure to the personnel charged with
treating the tyre repaired with the kit.WARNING
❒if reaching the tyre pressure specified in paragraph “Inflation pressure”
in section “Technical Specifications”, start driving immediately;
❒after driving for about 10 minutes stop and check again the tyre pres-
sure; pull up the handbrake;
❒if at least 1.8 bar pressure is read, restore proper pressure (with engine
running and handbrake on) and restart;
❒drive with the utmost care to the nearest Lancia Dealership.
FOR CHECKING AND RESTORING PRESSURE ONLY
The compressor can be also used just for restoring pressure.
Disconnect the quick connection and connect it directly to the tyre
valve; in this way the cylinder is not connected to compressor and the
sealing fluid will not flow into the tyre.
CYLINDER REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE
To replace the cylinder proceed as follows:
❒disconnect connection A;
❒turn counter-clockwise the cylinder to replace and raise it;
❒fit the new cylinder and turn it clockwise;
❒connect connection A to the cylinder and fit the transparent tube B in-
