METER
For LS-LX - 1.216VM M Nredver-
sions(fig. 32)
A- Odometer.
B- Trip meter.
Press “Reset” button C (fig. 36)to
reset.
For the 1.2
16VM Nblueversion(fig.
33), only the odometer is displayed;
to display the trip meter, press button
C (fig. 36)slightly and release.
Press button C (fig. 36)for more
than 3 seconds to reset the trip
odometer.
Press button C (fig. 36) again to re-
turn to the odometer display.COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGE (fig. 34)
If warning lamp Alights up, it
means that the engine coolant is too
hot.
Under normal conditions, the needle
of the temperature gauge should be-
tween 1/4 and 3/4 of the scale. If it
approaches the red section it means
the engine is being overtaxed and you
should reduce your demands on it.
IMPORTANTThe gauge will point
to low temperature and the excessive
temperature warning light Awill
come on to indicate a fault in the sys-
tem. Contact a LANCIA Dealership
to have the system checked.

AT THE FILLING
STATION
FUEL
Fill petrol engine cars only with un-
leaded petrol with a minimum octane
number of 95.
Fuel tank capacity: 45 litres includ-
ing a reserve of 5 - 8 litres.Never put even the tiniest
amount of leaded fuel in
the tank, even in an emer-
gency. You would damage the cat-
alytic converter beyond repair.
ENGINE OIL
Check the level: see the “Car main-
tenance” section.
The distance between the MINand
MAXmarks on the dipstick is equiv-
alent to about one litre of oil.
Use SAE 10W-40 oil for tempera-
tures down to –25°C.
For temperatures lower than –20°C,
we recommend using SELENIA
PERFORMERSAE 5W-30.Refer to the “Technical specifica-
tions” section for other information.

ENGINE COOLANT
Top up with a 50% mixture of wa-
ter and PARAFLU
11. For other data,
refer to the “Technical specifications”
section.
An inefficient catalytic
converter will allow harm-
ful exhaust fumes to be
emitted and thus contribute to the
pollution of the air.

ENGINE COOLANT SYSTEM
(fig.s 1, 2)
IMPORTANTThe cooling system is
pressurised. If the plug must be re-
placed, replace it only with a genuine
spare part or system efficiency may be
impaired.
The coolant level must be checked
while the engine is cold and must be
between the MINandMAXmarks on
the reservoir.Do not take the cap of the
reservoir off when the en-
gine is very hot as you run
the risk of scalding yourself.
If there is not enough coolant, pour
a 50% mixture of distilled water and
FL Group PARAFLU
11liquid slowly
through the filler hole 5in the reser-
voir, until the level is near the MAX
mark.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU
11
and distilled water gives freeze pro-
tection to –35 °C.WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW
WASHER LIQUID (fig.s 1, 2)
To add liquid, remove cap 4then
pour in the liquid until the reservoir
is completely full.
Use a mixture of water and DP1liq-
uid in these percentages:
30%DP1and 70% water in sum-
mer.
50%DP1and 50% water in winter.
If the temperature falls below –20°C,
useDP1undiluted.
IMPORTANTDo not travel with
the windscreen washer bottle empty:
using the windscreen washer is fun-
damental for improving visibility.
Some commercial addi-
tives for windscreen
washer fluids are flamma-
ble. The engine compartment con-
tains hot parts which could ignite
the fluid if it comes into contact
with them.

NOTES ON FLUID USE
Oils
Never top up with oils having dif-
ferent specifications from those al-
ready being used.Coolant

Use a mixture of water and DP1, in
the following proportions:
30%DP1and 70% water in sum-
mer.
50%DP1e 50% and 50% water in
winter.
Use undiluted DP1for temperatures
below –20°C.
