ESP Lancia Thema 2014 Owner handbook (in English)

WARNING!(Continued)
Take care not to allow the con-tents of TIREFIT to come in con-
tact with hair, eyes, or clothing.
TIREFIT is harmful if inhaled,
swallowed, or absorbed through
the skin: It causes skin, eye, and
respiratory irritation. Flush im-
mediately with plenty of water if
there is any contact with eyes or
skin. Change clothing as soon as
possible, if there is any contact
with clothing.
TIREFIT Sealant solution con- tains latex. In case of allergic re-
action or rash, consult a physi-
cian immediately. Keep TIREFIT
out of reach of children. If swal-
lowed, rinse mouth immediately
with plenty of water and drink
plenty of water. Do not induce
vomiting! Consult a physician
immediately.
Use the gloves provided in the Accessory Storage Compartment
(located on the bottom of the air
pump) when operating the TIRE-
FIT kit.
SEALING A TIRE WITH
TIREFIT
(A) Whenever You Stop To Use
TIREFIT:
1. Pull over to a safe location and
turn on the vehicle’s Hazard Warning
flashers.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the
wheel with the deflated tire) is in a
position that is near to the ground.
This will allow the TIREFIT Hoses
(6) and (7) to reach the valve stem
and keep the TIREFIT kit flat on the
ground. This will provide the best po-
sitioning of the kit when injecting the
sealant into the deflated tire and run-
ning the air pump. Move the vehicle as
necessary to place the valve stem in
this position before proceeding.
3. Place the transmission in PARK
(auto transmission) or in Gear
(manual transmission) and turn Off
the ignition.
4. Set the parking brake. (B) Setting Up To Use TIREFIT:
1. Turn the Mode Select Knob (5) to
the Sealant Mode position.
2. Uncoil the Sealant Hose (6) and
then remove the cap from the fitting
at the end of the hose.
3. Place the TIREFIT kit flat on the
ground next to the deflated tire.
4. Remove the cap from the valve
stem and then screw the fitting at the
end of the Sealant Hose (6) onto the
valve stem.
5. Uncoil the Power Plug (8) and in-
sert the plug into the vehicle’s 12 Volt
power outlet.
NOTE:
Do not remove foreign ob-
jects (e.g., screws or nails) from the
tire.
(C) Injecting TIREFIT Sealant
Into The Deflated Tire:
Always start the engine before turning ON the TIREFIT kit.

metal in your vehicle. Outside park-
ing, which exposes your vehicle to air-
borne contaminants, road surfaces on
which the vehicle is operated, extreme
hot or cold weather and other extreme
conditions will have an adverse effect
on paint, metal trim, and underbody
protection.
The following maintenance recom-
mendations will enable you to obtain
maximum benefit from the corrosion
resistance built into your vehicle.
What Causes Corrosion?
Corrosion is the result of deterioration
or removal of paint and protective
coatings from your vehicle.
The most common causes are:
Road salt, dirt and moisture accu-mulation.
Stone and gravel impact.
Insects, tree sap and tar.
Salt in the air near seacoast localities.
Atmospheric fallout/industrial pol- lutants. Washing
Wash your vehicle regularly. Al-
ways wash your vehicle in the shade
using a mild car wash soap, and
rinse the panels completely with
clear water.
Use a high quality cleaner wax to protect your paint finish. Take care
never to scratch the paint.

Avoid using abrasive compounds and
power buffing that may diminish the
gloss or thin out the paint finish.
CAUTION!
Do not use abrasive or strong clean-
ing materials such as steel wool or
scouring powder that will scratch
metal and painted surfaces.
Special Care
If you drive on salted or dusty roads or if you drive near the ocean, hose
off the undercarriage at least once a
month. It is important that the drain holes
in the lower edges of the doors,
rocker panels, and cargo area be
kept clear and open.
If you detect any stone chips or scratches in the paint, touch them
up immediately. The cost of such
repairs is considered the responsi-
bility of the owner.
If your vehicle is damaged due to an accident or similar cause, which de-
stroys the paint and protective
coating, have your vehicle repaired
as soon as possible. The cost of such
repairs is considered the responsi-
bility of the owner.
If you carry special cargo such as chemicals, fertilizers, de-icer salt,
etc., be sure that such materials are
well packaged and sealed.
If a lot of driving is done on gravel roads, consider mud or stone
shields behind each wheel.
Use Touch Up Paint or equivalent on scratches as soon as possible.
287

Your authorized dealer has touch
up paint to match the color of your
vehicle.
Wheel And Wheel Trim Care
All wheels and wheel trim, especially
aluminum and chrome-plated wheels
should be cleaned regularly with a
mild soap and water to prevent corro-
sion. To remove heavy soil and/or ex-
cessive brake dust, use a nonabrasive,
non-acidic cleaner. Do not use scour-
ing pads, steel wool, a bristle brush, or
metal polishes. Do not use oven
cleaner. Avoid automatic car washes
that use acidic solutions or harsh
brushes that may damage the wheels’
protective finish.
Stain Repel Fabric Cleaning
Procedure (for versions/markets,
where provided)
Stain Repel seats may be cleaned in
the following manner:
Remove as much of the stain as possible by blotting with a clean,
dry towel.
Blot any remaining stain with a clean, damp towel. For tough stains, apply a mild soap
solution to a clean, damp cloth and
remove the stain. Use a fresh, damp
towel to remove soap residue.
Do not use any harsh solvents or any other form of protectants on
Stain Repel products.
Interior Care
Interior trim should be cleaned start-
ing with a damp cloth. Do not use
harsh cleaners.
Your leather upholstery can be best
preserved by regular cleaning with a
damp soft cloth. Small particles of
dirt can act as an abrasive and dam-
age the leather upholstery and should
be removed promptly with a damp
cloth. Stubborn soils can be removed
easily with a soft cloth and appropri-
ate products. Care should be taken to
avoid soaking your leather upholstery
with any liquid. Please do not use
polishes, oils, cleaning fluids, sol-
vents, detergents, or ammonia-based
cleaners to clean your leather uphol-
stery. Application of a leather condi-
tioner is not required to maintain the
original condition.WARNING!
Do not use volatile solvents for
cleaning purposes. Many are poten-
tially flammable, and if used in
closed areas they may cause respi-
ratory harm.
Cleaning Headlights
Your vehicle has plastic headlights
that are lighter and less susceptible to
stone breakage than glass headlights.
Plastic is not as scratch resistant as
glass and therefore different lens
cleaning procedures must be fol-
lowed.
To minimize the possibility of scratch-
ing the lenses and reducing light out-
put, avoid wiping with a dry cloth. To
remove road dirt, wash with a mild
soap solution followed by rinsing.
Do not use abrasive cleaning compo-
nents, solvents, steel wool or other
aggressive material to clean the
lenses.

ARRANGEMENTS FOR
DEALING WITH THE
VEHICLE AT THE END OF
ITS LIFE
LANCIA has been committed for
many years to safeguarding the envi-
ronment through the constant im-
provement of its production processes
and manufacturing products that are
increasingly “eco-compatible”.
To give customers the best possible
service in terms of respecting environ-
mental laws and in response to Euro-
pean Directive 2000/53/EC govern-
ing vehicles at the end of their life,
LANCIA is offering its customers the
opportunity of handing over their ve-
hicle* at the end of its life without
incurring any additional costs.
The European Directive sets out that
when the vehicle is handed over the
last keeper or owner should not incur
any expenses as a result of it having a
zero or negative market value.In all European Union countries, until
1st January 2007, only vehicles regis-
tered after 1st July 2002 were col-
lected free of charge, while since 2007
collection has been free of charge irre-
spective of the year of registration as
long as the vehicle contains its basic
components (in particular, the engine
and bodywork) and has no additional
waste.
To hand your vehicle over at the end
of its life without extra cost, go to one
of our Dealerships or LANCIA-
authorized collection and scrapping
centres.
These centres have been carefully
chosen to offer high quality service for
the collection, treatment and recy-
cling of unused vehicles with respect
to the environment.
You can find further information on
these collection and scrapping centres
either from a LANCIA or LANCIA
Commercial Vehicle Dealership or by
calling the freephone number
00800 526242 00 or by going on the
LANCIA website.

gers with a maximum of nine seats
