SERV AWD (Service All Wheel
Drive) Indicator (for versions/
markets, where provided)This light will turn on when
the All Wheel Drive feature
requires service. For further
information, refer to “All
Wheel Drive” in “Starting And
Operating.”
EVIC RED TELLTALES
This area will show reconfigurable red
telltales. These telltales include:
Door Ajar
This telltale turns on when
one or more doors are ajar.
The telltale will show which
doors are ajar.
Trunk Ajar
This light will turn on to
indicate that the trunk lid is
ajar. Oil Pressure Warning Telltale
This telltale indicates low en-
gine oil pressure. If the light
turns on while driving, stop the ve-
hicle and shut off the engine as soon
as possible. A chime will sound for
four minutes when this light turns on.
Do not operate the vehicle until the
cause is corrected. This light does not
show how much oil is in the engine.
The engine oil level must be checked
under the hood.
Charging System Telltale
This telltale shows the status
of the electrical charging sys-
tem. If the telltale stays on or comes
on while driving, turn off some of the
vehicle's non-essential electrical de-
vices or increase engine speed (if at
idle). If the charging system telltale
remains on, it means that the vehicle
is experiencing a problem with the
charging system. Obtain SERVICE
IMMEDIATELY. See an authorized
dealer. If jump starting is required, refer to
“Jump Starting Procedures” in “What
To Do In Emergencies”.
Electronic Throttle Control
(ETC) Telltale
This telltale informs you of
a problem with the Elec-
tronic Throttle Control
(ETC) system. If the telltale
comes on while driving, have the sys-
tem checked by an authorized dealer.
If a problem is detected, the telltale
will come on while the engine is run-
ning. Cycle the ignition key when the
vehicle has completely stopped and
the shift lever is placed in the PARK
position. The telltale should turn off.
If the telltale remains lit with the en-
gine running, your vehicle will usually
be drivable. However, see an autho-
rized dealer for service as soon as pos-
sible. If the telltale is flashing when
the engine is running, immediate ser-
vice is required. You may experience
reduced performance, an elevated/
rough idle or engine stall and your
vehicle may require towing.

When the shift down indicator (-) is
shown on the display, the GSI is ad-
vising the driver to engage a lower
gear.
The GSI indicator in the EVIC re-
mains illuminated until the driver
changes gear, or the driving condi-
tions return to a situation where
changing gear is not required to im-
prove fuel consumption.
OIL CHANGE DUE
Your vehicle is equipped with an en-
gine oil change indicator system. The
“Oil Change Due” message will flash
in the EVIC display for approxi-
mately 10 seconds after a single chime
has sounded to indicate the next
scheduled oil change interval. The en-
gine oil change indicator system is
duty cycle based, which means the
engine oil change interval may fluctu-
ate dependent upon your personal
driving style.
Unless reset, this message will con-
tinue to display each time you cycle
the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
To turn off the message temporarily,
press and release the BACK button.
To reset the oil change indicator sys-
tem please refer to a Lancia Dealer-
ship.
DIESEL PARTICULATE
FILTER (DPF) MESSAGES
Exhaust System — RegenerationRequired Now. Under conditions of
exclusive short duration and low
speed driving and low speed driv-
ing cycles, the engine and exhaust
after-treatment system may never
reach the conditions required to re-
move the trapped PM. If this occurs
the “Exhaust System Regeneration
Required Now” message will be
displayed on the EVIC. By driving
your vehicle at highway speeds for
as little as 30 minutes, you can rem-
edy the condition in the particulate
filter system by allowing the
trapped PM to be removed to re-
store the system to normal operat-
ing condition.
Exhaust Service Require — See Dealer Now. The engine will be de-
rated to prevent permanent dam-
age to the after-treatment system. If
this condition occurs, it is necessary
to have your vehicle serviced by
your local authorized dealer.

WARNING!(Continued)
Do not attempt to push or towyour vehicle to get it started. Ve-
hicles equipped with an auto-
matic transmission cannot be
started this way. Unburned fuel
could enter the catalytic con-
verter and once the engine has
started, ignite and damage the
converter and vehicle.
If the vehicle has a discharged battery, booster cables may be
used to obtain a start from a
booster battery or the battery in
another vehicle. This type of start
can be dangerous if done improp-
erly. Refer to “Jump Starting” in
“What To Do In Emergencies” for
further information.
Clearing A Flooded Engine (Using
ENGINE START/STOP Button)
If the engine fails to start after you
have followed the “Normal Starting”
or “Extreme Cold Weather" proce-
dures, it may be flooded. To clear any
excess fuel:
1. Press and hold the brake pedal. 2. Press the accelerator pedal all the
way to the floor and hold it.
3. Press and release the ENGINE
START/STOP button once.
The starter motor will engage auto-
matically, run for 10 seconds, and
then disengage. Once this occurs, re-
lease the accelerator pedal and the
brake pedal, wait 10 to 15 seconds,
then repeat the “Normal Starting”
procedure.
AFTER STARTING
The idle speed is controlled automati-
cally and it will decrease as the engine
warms up.
NORMAL STARTING –
DIESEL ENGINE
Observe the following when the en-
gine is operating.
All message center lights are off.
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
is off.
Low Oil Pressure Light is off. Cold Weather Precautions
If the outside temperature is very low,
the diesel fuel thickens due to the
formation of parrafin clots and could
clog the diesel filter. In order to avoid
these problems, different types of die-
sel fuel are distributed according to
the season: summer type, winter type
and arctic type (cold, mountainous
areas).
If refuelling with diesel fuel whose
specifications are not suitable for the
outside temperature, it is advisable to
mix TUTELA DIESEL ART additive
in the proportions shown on the con-
tainer with the fuel. Pour the additive
into the tank before the fuel.
When using or parking the vehicle for
a long time in the mountains or cold
areas, it is advisable to refuel using
locally available diesel. In this case, it
is also advisable to keep the tank over
50% full.

SYNTHETIC ENGINE OILS
You may use synthetic engine oils pro-
vided the recommended oil quality
requirements are met, and the recom-
mended maintenance intervals for oil
and filter changes are followed.
MATERIALS ADDED TO
ENGINE OILS
Do not add supplemental materials,
other than leak detection dyes, to the
engine oil. Engine oil is an engineered
product, and its performance may be
impaired by supplemental additives.
DISPOSING OF USED
ENGINE OIL AND FILTERS
Care should be taken in disposing of
used engine oil and oil filters from
your vehicle. Used oil and oil filters,
indiscriminately discarded, can pres-
ent a problem to the environment.
Contact your local authorized dealer,
service station, or governmental
agency for advice on how and where
used oil and oil filters can be safely
discarded in your area.
ENGINE OIL FILTER
The engine oil filter should be re-
placed with a new filter at every oil
change.
Engine Oil Filter Selection
The manufacturer's engines have a
full-flow type disposable oil filter. Use
a filter of this type for replacement.
The quality of replacement filters var-
ies considerably. Only high-quality
filters should be used to assure most
efficient service. LANCIA engine oil
filters are high-quality oil filters and
are recommended.

BODY LUBRICATION
Locks and all body pivot points, in-
cluding such items as seat tracks, door
hinge pivot points and rollers, liftgate,
tailgate, sliding doors and hood
hinges, should be lubricated periodi-
cally with a lithium based grease to
assure quiet, easy operation and to
protect against rust and wear. Prior to
the application of any lubricant, the
parts concerned should be wiped
clean to remove dust and grit; after
lubricating excess oil and grease
should be removed. Particular atten-
tion should also be given to hood

INTERVENTION
REGENERATION
STRATEGY – 3.0L DIESEL
ENGINE
This vehicle is equipped with a state-
of-the-art engine and exhaust system
containing a diesel particulate filter.The engine and exhaust after-
treatment system work together to
meet the Emission standards. The
system manages engine combustion to
allow the exhaust system’s catalyst to
trap and burn Particulate Matter
(PM) pollutants with no input or in-
teraction on your part.
Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC)” in “Understand-
ing Your Instrument Cluster” for fur-
ther information.
EXHAUST SYSTEM
The best protection against carbon
monoxide entry into the vehicle body
is a properly maintained engine ex-
haust system.
Whenever a change is noticed in the
sound of the exhaust system, when
exhaust fumes can be detected inside
the vehicle, or when the underside or
rear of the vehicle is damaged, have a
competent mechanic inspect the com-
plete exhaust system and adjacent
body areas for broken, damaged, de-
teriorated, or mispositioned parts.
Open seams or loose connections
could permit exhaust fumes to seepinto the passenger compartment. In
addition, have the exhaust system in-
spected each time the vehicle is raised
for lubrication or oil change. Replace
as required.
WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure or kill.
They contain carbon monoxide
(CO), which is colorless and odor-
less. Breathing it can make you un-
conscious and can eventually poi-
son you. To avoid breathing CO,
refer to “Safety Tips/Exhaust Gas”
in “Things To Know Before Start-
ing Your Vehicle” for further infor-
mation.
CAUTION!
The catalytic converter requires the
use of unleaded fuel only. Leaded
gasoline will destroy the effective-
ness of the catalyst as an emissions
control device and may seriously
reduce engine performance and
cause serious damage to the engine.
