IMPORTANT - Battery
You should check the battery charge
preferably at the beginning of the
winter to avoid the possibility of the
electrolyte freezing up.
This check should be performed
more frequently if the car is mainly
used for short trips, or if it is fitted
with accessories that absorb energy
even when the ignition key is re-
moved, especially if they are after-
market accessories.
You should check the battery fluid
(electrolyte) level more frequently
than shown in the Service Schedule
(see “Car maintenance”) if the car is
used in hot climates or particularly
demanding conditions. IMPORTANT - Engine oil
Change the engine oil more fre-
quently than indicated in the Service
Schedule, if the car is normally driven
in one of the following particularly se-
vere conditions:
– towing a trailer or caravan
– on dusty roads
– short, repetitive trips (less than 7
or 8 kilometres) in outside tempera-
tures below zero
– engines that are frequently left to
idle or drive slowly over long dis-
tances.
IMPORTANT - Air cleaner
Change the air cleaner more often
than indicated in the Service Sched-
ule if you use the car on dusty roads.
If you are in doubt about how often
the engine oil or the air cleaner should
be changed in relation to how you use
the car, contact a LANCIA Dealer-
ship.IMPORTANT - Pollen filter
If the car is often used in dusty or
highly polluted areas, you should
change the pollen filtering element
more frequently, especially if you no-
tice that the amount of air entering
the passenger compartment is re-
duced.
IMPORTANT - Remote control
If the LED on the remote control
unit flashes only once when you press
the remote control button, you need
to replace the batteries.

ENGINE OIL (fig.s 1, 2)
Check the oil level a few minutes
(approx. 5) after the engine has
stopped with the car parked on level
ground.
The oil level must be between the
MINandMAXmarks on the dipstick.
The space between MINandMAX
corresponds to approximately one
litre of oil.If the oil level is near or even below
theMINmark, pour in oil through
the filler hole until it reaches the MAX
mark.
The oil level must never exceed the
MAXmark.
IMPORTANTIf following a regular
check the oil level is over the MAX
line, go to a LANCIA Dealershipto
have the correct level restored.
IMPORTANTAfter adding or
changing the oil, let the engine turn
over for a few seconds and wait a few
minutes after turning it off before you
check the level.ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION
During the beginning of the car’s life
the engine is be tuned in. Engine oil
consumption can only be considered
stabilised after the first 5,000 - 6,000
km.
IMPORTANTOil consumption de-
pends on the driving style and the
conditions of use.
When the engine is hot,
operate very carefully in-
side the engine compart-
ment: danger of burns. Remember
that, when the engine is hot, the
electric fan could start operating:
danger of injuries.
Do not add oil with dif-
ferent specifications from
the oil already in the en-
gine.
Used engine oil and re-
placed oil filters contain
substances that can harm
the environment. We recommend
you have the car seen to at a LAN-
CIA Dealership for the oil and fil-
ter change. It is suitably equipped
for disposing of used oil and filters
in an environmentally-friendly
way that complies with the law.
