❒turn on; wait for the warning light
Yand
mto turn off (the hot-
ter the engine the shorter the time
it takes to turn off);
❒press the clutch pedal down to the
floor without touching the accel-
erator;
❒turn the ignition key to AV Vas
soon as the warning light
mturns
off. Waiting too long will waste the
work done by the glow plugs. Re-
lease the key as soon as the engine
starts.
IMPORTANT When the engine is
cold, rotating the ignition key to AV V,
the accelerator pedal must be com-
pletely released.
If the engine does not start at the first
attempt, return the ignition key to
STOP before repeating starting.
If, when the ignition key is on MAR,
the instrument panel warning light
Yremains on, turn the key to STOP
and then back to MAR; if the warning
light remains on, try with the other
keys provided with the car.
If you still cannot start the engine,
contact the Lancia Dealership.HOW TO WARM UP THE ENGINE
AFTER IT HAS JUST STARTED
(petrol and Multijet engines)
Proceed as follows:
❒drive off slowly, letting the engine
turn at medium speed. Do not ac-
celerate abruptly;
❒do not demand maximum perfor-
mance for the first few kilometres.
Wait until the engine coolant
gauge starts moving.Warning light
mwill blink
for 60 seconds after starting
or during prolonged crank-
ing to indicate a fault to the
glow plug heating system. Use the car
normally if the engine starts and con-
tact the Lancia Dealership as soon as
possible.
EMERGENCY START
If the instrument panel warning light
Ystays on steadily, you can perform
emergency start using the code on the
CODE card (see chapter “In an emer-
gency”).
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition to STOPwhile the en-
gine is idling.
IMPORTANT After a taxing drive,
you should allow the engine to “catch
its breath” before turning it off by let-
ting it idle to allow the temperature in
the engine compartment to fall.
Never jump start the engine
by pushing, towing or dri-
ving downhill. These actions
could cause the fuel to flow
into the catalytic converter and dam-
age it beyond repair.
Revving up before stopping
the engine is useless, it
causes unnecessary fuel con-
sumption and can damage
the engine, in particular engines
equipped with turbocharger.
IMPORTANT With engine off, do not
leave the key in the ignition switch on
MAR.

PARKING THE CAR
Proceed as follows:
❒stop the engine and engage the
handbrake;
❒when on a slope, engage a gear
(engage first gear if the car is
faced uphill or reverse if it is faced
downhill) and leave the wheels
steered.
When parking the car on a steep
slope, it is advisable to also place a
wedge or a rock under the wheels.
PROLONGED parking with a wheel
on the pavement or steered against a
step should be avoided. Do not leave
the ignition key on MARto prevent
draining the battery. Always remove
the key when you leave the car.
HANDBRAKE
The handbrake lever is located be-
tween the two front seats.
Pull the lever upwards to operate the
handbrake.
Four or five notches are normally suf-
ficient to lock the car on flat terrain,
while nine or ten may be necessary on
a steep slope with the car loaded. IMPORTANT If this is not the case,
contact a Lancia Dealership to have
the handbrake adjusted.
When the handbrake lever is pulled
up and the ignition key is on MAR,
the instrument panel warning light
xwill turn on.
Proceed as follows to release the
handbrake:
❒slightly lift the handbrake and
press release button A-fig. 1;
❒keep button Apressed and lower
the lever. Warning light
xwill
turn off.
Press the brake pedal when carrying
out this operation to prevent the car
from moving accidentally.
IMPORTANT If the handbrake lever
tends to reach end of its stroke
(groove on the central console), con-
tact a Lancia Dealership to have the
handbrake adjusted.

WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
GENERAL WARNINGS
Lighting of a warning light is associated
to a specific message and/or buzzer
when applicable. These indications are
brief and precautionary and as such
must not be considered as exhaustive
and/or alternative to the information
contained in the Owner’s Handbook,
which you are recommended to read
carefully in all cases. Always refer to the
information in this chapter in the event
of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT Failure indications on
the display fall into either of two cat-
egories:seriousfailure and less seri -
ousfailure.
Seriousfailures indicate a “cycle” of
warning messages that stay on until
the cause of the failure is eliminated.
Less seriousfailures are indicated by
a limited warning “cycle”.
PressMODEto stop the warning cy-
cle in both cases. The warning light
on the instrument panel will stay on
until the cause of the failure is elimi-
nated.LOW BRAKE FLUID
LEVEL (red)
HANDBRAKE ON (red)
When the ignition key is moved to
MARthe warning light turns on and
should go off after a few seconds.
Low brake fluid level
The warning light turns on when the
level of the brake fluid in the reservoir
falls below the minimum level due to
possible leaks in the circuit.
The display will show the dedicated
message.
x
Handbrake on
The warning light turns on when the
handbrake is on.
On certain versions, if the car is mov-
ing the buzzer also triggers.
IMPORTANT If the warning light
turns on when travelling, check that
the handbrake is not engaged.
AIRBAG FAILURE (red)
When the ignition key is
moved to MAR, the warn-
ing light turns on and should

WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
If when turning the key to
MAR the warning light ¬does not turn on or stays on during
car travel (together with the message
on the multifunctional display,
where provided), a failure may have
occurred in the restraint systems. In
this case the airbags or pretension-
ers may not be deployed after an im-
pact or, in a minor number of cases,
they may be deployed accidentally.
Contact Lancia Dealership immedi-
ately to have the system checked im-
mediately.
The failure of the warning
light
¬is indicated by the
warning light flashing longer than
the expected 4 seconds“, thus sig-
nalling that the front passenger
airbag is deactivated. In addition,
the airbag system automatically dis-
ables the airbag on the passenger’s
side (both front and side airbags,
where provided). In this case, the
warning light
¬does not neces-
sarily indicate a failure in the re-
straining systems. Contact Lancia
Dealership immediately to have the
system checked.
