SNOW CHAINS
Use of snow chains should be in com-
pliance with local regulations.
The snow chains may be applied only
onto the front wheel tyres (drive
wheels). Use of Lineaccessori Lancia
snow chains is recommended.
Check the tension of the chains after
the first few metres have been driven.
IMPORTANT The spare wheel cannot
be fitted with snow chains. If the front
tyre has a puncture, replace a rear
wheel with the spare wheel and move
the rear wheel to the front axle. This
way, having two standard size wheels
on the front axle, is it possible to fit
the chains.
The tyres that can be fitted with snow chains and the respective
chain type for each version are shown in the above table; always
comply with the above specifications.
Keep your speed down when snow chains are fitted. Do not
exceed 50 km/h. Avoid potholes, steps and pavements and
avoid also to drive for long distances on roads not covered
with snow to prevent damaging the car and the roadbed.
Tyres that can be fitted with Type of snow snow chains chains to be used
185/65 R14 86T
195/60 R15 88T
205/50 R16 87V tyres
cannot be fitted with snow
chains.
WARNING

STARTING
AND

IN AN
EMERGENCY
The small spare wheel is
specific for your car. Do
not use it on cars of different mod-
els. Do not use spare wheels of dif-
ferent models on your car. The
small spare wheel must only be
used in an emergency. Never use it
for more than strictly necessary
and never exceed 80 km/h. On the
small spare wheel there is an or-
ange label, summarizing the main
warnings regarding small spare
wheel usage restrictions. Never re-
move or cover the label. Never ap-
ply any hub cap on the small spare
wheel. The label contains the fol-
lowing indications in four lan-
guages: Warning! For temporary
use only! 80 km/h max! Replace
the standard wheel as soon as pos-
sible. Do not cover this instruction.
WARNING
The driving characteristics
of the car are different
when the small spare wheel is in-
stalled. Avoid violent accelerations
and braking, sharp steering and
fast bending. The overall duration
of the small spare wheel is of about
3000 km, after which the relevant
tyre must be replaced with another
one of the same type. Never install
a traditional tyre on a rim de-
signed to be used as a small spare
wheel. Repair and refit the stan-
dard wheel as soon as possible.
Using two or more small spare
wheels at the same time is forbid-
den. Do not apply grease to the bolt
threading before assembly: they
might come unscrewed.
WARNING
The jack may only be used
to replace wheels on the
car which it equips or other cars of
the same model. Never use the jack
for other purposes, such as lifting
other car models. Never use the
jack to carry out repairs under the
car. Incorrect positioning of the
jack may cause the car to fall. Do
not use the jack for loads higher
than those shown on the label.
Never install snow chains on the
small spare wheel; if a front tyre
(driving wheel) is punctured and
you need to use snow chains, use a
standard wheel from the rear axle
and install the small spare wheel
on the rear axle. This way, with
two normal front driving wheels,
you can install the snow chains on
them, thus resolving the emergency.

A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
❒When a bulb is not working, check
that the corresponding fuse is in-
tact before replacing it: refer to the
“If a fuse blows” paragraph in this
chapter for fuse location;
❒Before changing a bulb check the
contacts for oxidation;

fluid, etc);
❒replace engine oil;
❒replace engine oil filter;
❒replace pollen filter (where pro-
vided).
ADDITIONAL
CHECKS
Every 1,000 km or before long jour-
neys, check and top up if required:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre pressure and conditions.
Every 3,000 km check the following
and top-up, if required: engine oil

MAINTENANCE
AND CARE
IMPORTANT If the charge level re-
mains for a long time under 50%, the
battery is damaged by sulphation, re-
ducing its capacity and starting atti-
tude.
The battery will also be more at risk
of freezing (e.g. already at –10°C).
Refer to the paragraph “Car inactiv-
ity” in “Starting and driving” if the
car is left parked for a long time.
If after buying the car, you want to in-
stall electric accessories which require
permanent electric supply (alarm,
etc.) contact the Lancia Dealership
whose qualified personnel, in addition
to suggesting the most suitable devices
beloning to the Lancia Lineaccessori
line, will evaluate the overall electric
absorption, checking whether the car’s
electric system is capable of with-
standing the load required, or whether
it should be integrated with a more
powerful battery.
Since these devices continue absorb-
ing energy even when the ignition key
is off, they gradually run down the
battery.WHEELS
AND TYRES
Check the pressure of each type, in-
cluding the spare, approximately once
every two weeks and before starting a
long journey: this check must be per-
formed with the tyre rested and cold.
It is normal for the pressure to in-
crease when the car is used; for the
correct tyre inflation pressure, see
“Wheels” in “Technical specifica-
tions” section.
Incorrect pressure causes abnormal
tyre wear:
A: normal pressure: evenly worn
tread.
B: low pressure: tread particularly
worn on the edges.
C: excessive pressure: tread particu-
larly worn in the middle.
The tyres must be replaced when the
tread is less than 1.6 mm thick. In all
cases, follow the laws in force in the
country where you are driving.IMPORTANT NOTES
❒Avoid braking suddenly, burning
starts and violent knocks against
the curb, potholes or other obsta-
cles if possible. Long distances on
rough roads may damage the
tyres;
❒check the tyres regularly for cuts
on the sides, swelling or irregular
tread wear. Go to a Lancia Deal-
ership if required;
❒do not overload your car: this may
cause serious damage to wheels
and tyres;
❒if a tyre is punctured, stop imme-
diately and charge it to avoid
damage to the tyre, the rim, sus-
pensions and steering system;
