While the car is being
towed with the engine off,
remember that the brake
pedal and steering will require
more effort as you no longer have
the benefit of the brake booster
and power steering. Do not use
flexible cables to tow. Avoid jerk-
ing. Whilst towing, ensure that the
coupling to the car does not dam-
age the surrounding components.Do not extract the igni-
tion key during towing;
leave it at MAR, to prevent
the steering lock engaging and,
provided the electrical system is
not damaged, keep the brake lights
and direction indicators working.
When the ignition key is re-
moved, the steering lock will cut in
thus preventing the steering wheel
from being turned.IF AN ACCIDENT
OCCURS
– It is important to keep calm.
– If you are not directly involved,
stop at least ten metres away from the
accident.
– If you are on a motorway do not
obstruct the emergency lane with your
car.
– Turn off the engine and turn on
the hazard lights.
– At night, illuminate the scene of
the accident with your headlights.
– Act carefully, you must not risk
being run over.
– Mark the accident by putting the
red triangle at the regulatory distance
from the car where it can be clearly
seen.
– If the doors are jammed, do not try
to leave the car by breaking the glass
of the windscreen as the glass is strat-
ified. Side windows and the rear win-
dow can be broken more easily.

IMPORTANTCars with optional
“Kaleidos” options (non-standard
personalised paint colours), can be re-
paired in exactly the same way as
other cars painted with standard
colours at your LANCIA Dealership.To wash the car properly:
1)Remove the aerial from the roof
to prevent damaging it when washing
the car in an automatic carwash.
2)Wet the body using a low pressure
jet of water.
3)Wipe a sponge with a slightly
soapy solution over the bodywork,
frequently rinsing the sponge.
4)Rinse well with water and dry
with a jet of air or a chamois leather.
When drying the car, be careful to
get at those parts which are not so
easily seen e.g. the door frames, bon-
net and around the headlights where
water can most readily collect. You
are advised not to take the car into a
closed area immediately, but to leave
it out in the open so any water left can
evaporate more easily.
Do not wash the car after it has been
parked in the sun or while the bonnet
is hot: it could take the shine off the
paint.
External plastic parts must be
cleaned following the usual car wash-
ing procedure. As far as possible avoid parking your
car under trees; the resinous sub-
stances which often drop from certain
types of trees could dull the paint and
increase the possibility of rusting.
IMPORTANTBird droppings must
be washed off immediately and with
great care as their acid is particularly
aggressive.
Detergents pollute water.
For this reason, the car
must be washed in an area
equipped for the collection and
purification of the liquids used
while washing.
IMPORTANTWashing is to be car-
ried out with the engine cold and the
ignition key on STOP. After washing
make sure that the various protections
(rubber sheaths and other guards)
have not moved from their positions
or been damaged.
