WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
If when turning the key to
MAR the warning light ¬does not turn on or if it stays on
when travelling (together with the
message on the multifunctional
display, where provided) there
could be a failure in safety sys-
tems; in this event air bags or pre-
tensioners may not be deployed in
case of impact or, in a minor num-
ber of cases, they be deployed ac-
cidentally. Contact Lancia Dealer-
ship immediately to have the sys-
tem checked.
Failure of warning light
¬is indicated by warning
light“which will blink for longer
than the normal 4 seconds indicat-
ing that the front passenger airbag
is off. The airbag system will au-
tomatically deactivate the passen-
ger airbag (front and side, for ver-
sions/markets, where provided). In
this case, warning light
¬may not
indicate fault to the system. Con-
tact Lancia Dealership immedi-
ately to have the system checked.
WARNING
WARNING
HOT ENGINE COOLANT
(red)
When the ignition key is
moved to MAR, the warning
light turns on and should go off after
a few seconds.
The warning light turns on when the
engine is overheated.
If the warning light comes on, proceed
as follows:
❒during normal travel: stop the
car, stop the engine and check that
the water level in the vessel is not
under the MINline. In this case,
wait for a few minutes for the en-
gine to cool down when slowly and
carefully open the cap, top-up with
coolant and check that the level is
between the MINandMAXrefer-
ences on the vessel itself. Also check
for leakages. Go to a Lancia Deal-
ership if the warning should come
on when the engine is started again.
u
❒In the case of demanding use
(e.g. towing trailers uphill or car at
full load): slow down and stop the
car if the warning light stays on.
Stand for 2 or 3 minutes with the
engine running and slightly acceler-
ated to promote a better circulation
of coolant. Then stop the engine.
Check correct liquid level as de-
scribed above.
IMPORTANT After taxing operation,
it is advisable to keep the engine on
and slightly accelerated for a few min-
utes before switching it off.
The display will show the dedicated
message.
LOW BATTERY
CHARGE (red)
When the ignition key is
moved to MAR, the warning
light turns on and should go out as
soon as the engine is started (with the
engine running at idle speed a brief
delay in going out is allowed). Go to
a Lancia Dealership immediately if
the warning light stays on.

driving.
FRONT PASSENGER
AIRBAG
DEACTIVATED
(amber)
Warning light “comes on when front
passenger’s airbag is deactivated.
With the front passenger’s airbag on,
when the ignition key is moved to
MAR, the warning light “comes on
steadily for about 4 seconds; then, it
continues to flash for 4 seconds and
finally goes off.
“
Failure of the warning

WARNING
EOBD engine control system
failure
In normal conditions, when the igni-
tion key is moved to MAR, the warn-
ing light turns on and should go off
after engine start-up. This indicates
that the warning light is working cor-
rectly. If the warning light either stays
on or comes on while travelling:
❒steady light: a fault in the supply/
ignition system which could cause
high emissions at the exhaust, pos-
sible lack of performance, poor
handling and high consumption
levels.
The display will show the dedicated
message.
In these conditions, you may continue
travelling at moderate speed without
demanding excessive effort from the
engine. Prolonged use of the car with
the warning light on may cause dam-
age. Go to a Lancia Dealership as
soon as possible. If warning light will
go out after the fault goes away but it
will be stored in the system.
❒blinking light: indicates the possi-
bility of damage to the catalyser
(see “EOBD system” in section
“Dashboard and controls”). If the light flashes, release the accel-
erator pedal to lower the speed of the
engine until the warning light stops
flashing; continue the journey at mod-
erate speed, trying to avoid driving
conditions that may cause further
flashing and contact Lancia Dealer-
ship as soon as possible.

REPLACING FUSES
INTRODUCTION fig. 35
The fuse is a protective device for the
electric system: it comes into action
(i.e. it cuts off) mainly due to a fault
or improper action on the system.
Check the efficiency of the corre-
sponding fuse when a device does not
work: the conducting element Amust
not be interrupted. If it is, replace the
blown fuse with another with the
same amperage (same colour).
B: intact fuse
C: fuse with damaged filament.
Use the tongs Din the fusebox on the
dashboard to change a fuse.
fig. 35L0D0198m
If a fuse blows again, con-
tact a Lancia Dealership.
WARNING
Never replace a fuse with
another of higher amper-
age: FIRE RISK.
If a general protection fuse
(MEGA-FUSE, MIDI-
FUSE, MAXI-FUSE) blows, con-
tact your Lancia Dealership
WARNING
Remove the key from the
ignition switch and switch
off all loads before replacing a
fuse.
WARNING

for safety systems (air bag
system, braking system), power
unit systems (engine system, trans-
mission system) or steering system
is triggered, contact a Lancia
Dealership.

YEARLY
INSPECTION PLAN
The following yearly inspection plan
is recommended for cars clocking less
than 20,000 km a year (e.g. approx-
imately 15.000 km):
❒check tyre conditions/wear and
pressure (included spare wheel)
❒check lighting system operation
(headlights, direction indicators,
hazard lights, boot, passenger
compartment, instrument panel
warning lights, etc.)
❒check windscreen wiper/washer
(nozzle direction and blade wear)
❒check front disk brake pad condi-
tions and wear;
❒visually inspect: engine, gearbox,
transmission, flexible and stiff pip-
ing (exhaust, fuel feed, brakes),
rubber parts (boots, sleeves, bush-
ings, etc.);❒check cleanness of locks, bonnet
and boot and lever cleanness and
lubrication;
❒check battery charge;
❒visually inspect the accessory drive
belt conditions;
❒check and top up liquids if re-
quired (engine coolant, brakes,
windscreen washer, battery, etc.);
❒engine oil replacement;
❒replace engine oil filter;
❒replace pollen filter (for versions/
markets, where provided).
ADDITIONAL
INTERVENTIONS
Every 1,000 km or before long jour-
neys, check and, if necessary, top up:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒tyre pressure and conditions.
Every 3,000 km check the following
and top-up, if required: engine oil
level.
You are recommended to use
PETRONAS LUBRICANTS products,
designed and produced specifically for

section “Technical specifications”).
IMPORTANT - Engine oil
Should prevailing use of the car be
under one of the following specially
heavy conditions:
❒trailer or caravan towing;
❒dusty roads;

❒short distances (less than 7-8 km)
repeated and with external tem-
peratures below zero;
❒frequently idling engines or long
distance low speed driving (e.g.
taxis or door-to-door deliveries) or
in case of a long term inactivity;
❒change engine oil more frequently
than shown on the “Service
Schedule”.
IMPORTANT - Air cleaner
When the car is used on dusty roads,
change the air cleaner more fre-
quently than shown on the “Service
Schedule”. Call a Lancia Dealership
for doubts regarding engine oil and
air cleaner replacement. IMPORTANT - Pollen filter
It is advisable to replace the filtering
element more frequently if the car is
used in dusty or very polluted places.
Specifically, replace if a lower air flow
into the passenger compartment is
found.
IMPORTANT - Diesel filter
Using diesel not complying with Eu-
ropean Specification EN590 may lead
to the need to replace the diesel fuel
filter more frequently than shown in
the “Service Schedule”.IMPORTANT - Battery
Check the battery charge once a year,
preferably before the beginning to
winter, to prevent freezing of the elec-
trolyte.
Perform this inspection more fre-
quently if the car is mainly used for
short distances or if electrical devices
running with the key off are installed,
particularly after-market. Check the
battery level (electrolyte) more fre-
quently than shown on the “Service
Schedule” if the car is used in hot cli-
mates or in particularly demanding
conditions.
Take the car to a Lancia
Dealership for servicing.
Make sure you have the
right equipment, genuine
Lancia spare parts and consumables
for ordinary, minor interventions.
Do not attempt the operations if you
lack the experience.
