steering Lancia Ypsilon 2011 Owner handbook (in English)

LANCIA CODE SYSTEM FAILURE
(amber)
The warning light (or symbol on the display)
switches on (along with a message on the display
on some versions) to indicate a Lancia CODE
system failure: in this case contact a Lancia
Dealership as soon as possible.GLOW PLUG HEATING/GLOW PLUG
HEATING FAILURE (Diesel versions)
(amber)
GLOW PLUG HEATING
The warning light switches on when the key is
turned to MAR and switches off as soon as the
glow plugs have reached the preset temperature.
The engine can be started as soon as the warning
light switches off.
IMPORTANT At high ambient temperatures the
warning light may stay on for an extremely short
time.
GLOW PLUG HEATING FAILURE
The warning light flashes (together with a
message and a symbol on the display on some
versions) to indicate a fault in the glow plugs
preheating system. Contact a Lancia Dealership to
have the fault fixed as soon as possible.
WATER IN DIESEL FUEL FILTER
(Diesel versions) (amber)
The warning light remains on constantly when
driving (together with a message and a symbol on
the display on some versions), to indicate the
presence of water in the diesel fuel filter.The presence of water in the supply
circuit may cause severe damage to the
injection system and irregular engine
operation. If the
warning light switches on,
go to a Lancia Dealership as soon as possible
for bleeding. If this problem is indicated
immediately after refueling, water may have
entered the fuel tank. In this case,
immediately turn off the engine and contact
your Lancia Dealership.
“DUALDRIVE” ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING FAILURE (red)
This warning light switches on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR-ON, but it should switch off
after a few seconds. If the warning light (or, on
some versions, a message and a symbol on the
display) remains on, you may not have steering
assistance and the effort required to operate
the steering wheel could be notably increased;
steering is, however, possible. In this case, go to a
Lancia Dealership.

IMPORTANT In some circumstances, factors
independent of the electric power steering could
cause the warning light on the instrument panel to
switch on. In this case, stop the car immediately,
switch off the engine for about 20 seconds and
then restart the engine. If the warning light (or, on
some versions, a message and a symbol on the
display) remains on constantly, contact a Lancia
Dealership.
IMPORTANT After the battery is disconnected,
the steering must be initialised. The warning light
switches on to indicate this. To carry out this
procedure, simply turn the steering wheel all the
way from one end to the other or drive in a
straight line for about a hundred metres.
CRUISE CONTROL (green)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This warning light switches on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off
after a few seconds, if the Cruise Control is
deactivated. The warning light comes on when the
Cruise Control ring nut is turned to the ON
position (see the paragraph “Cruise Control”
paragraph in the chapter "Knowing your car").
On some versions the display shows the dedicated
message.
DPF (PARTICULATE FILTER) BEING
CLEANED
(only Diesel versions with DPF) (amber)
This warning light switches on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off
after a few seconds. The warning light (together
with a message and a symbol on the display on
some versions) switches on constantly to notify the
driver that the DPF system needs to eliminate
captured pollutants (particulate) by the
regeneration process.
The warning light does not come on during every
DPF regeneration, but only when driving
conditions require that the driver is notified. To
switch the warning light off, the car must be kept
moving until the regeneration process is
completed.
As an average, the process lasts fifteen minutes.
The best conditions to complete the regeneration
process are reached driving the car at about 60
km/h with engine speed over 2000 rpm.
When this warning light switches on, it does not
indicate a fault with the car and it should
therefore not be taken to a workshop. A specific
message will appear on the display when the
warning light comes on (for versions/markets,
where provided).

Never use a fast battery-charger to start
the engine as this could damage the
electronic systems of your car,
particularly the ignition and fuel supply
control units.
WARNING
This procedure must be performed by
expert personnel because
incorrect
actions could cause electrical discharge of
considerable intensity. Furthermore, battery
fluid is poisonous and corrosive: avoid
contact with skin and eyes. Keep naked
flames and lighted cigarettes away from the
battery and do not cause sparks.
BUMP STARTING
Never jump start the engine by pushing, towing or
coasting downhill.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake servo and
electrical power steering system are not active
until the engine is started. A much greater effort
will therefore be required to use the brake pedal or
turn the steering wheel.
REPLACING A WHEELGENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The car is equipped with the "Fix&Go Automatic
Kit": see the paragraph “Automatic Fix&Go
Kit” for how to use this device. As an alternative
to the “Automatic Fix&Go Kit” the car may be
equipped with a space-saver wheel: see the
instructions on the following pages for changing
the tyre.
WARNING
The space-saver wheel (for versions/
markets where provided)
is specific
to your car, do not use it on other models, or
use the space-saver wheel of other models
on your car. The space-saver wheel must
only be used in case of emergency. It must
only be used for the distance necessary
to reach a service point and the car speed
must not exceed 80 km/h. The space-saver
wheel has an orange sticker that summarises
the main cautions for use and limitations.
Never remove or cover the label. The
following information is provided in four
languages on the label: "Important! For
temporary use only! 80 km/h max! Replace
with a standard tyre as soon as possible.
Never cover this indication." Never apply a
hub cap on a space-saver wheel.

WARNING
Before towing, turn the ignition key to
MAR and then
to STOP without
removing it. The steering column will
automatically lock when the key is removed
and the wheels cannot be steered.
WARNING
Before tightening the hook clean the
threaded housing thoroughly
. Make
sure that the hook is fully fastened in the
housing before towing the car.
WARNING
Whilst towing, remember that as the
assistance of the
brake servo and
the electric power assisted steering is not
available, greater force needs to be exerted
on the brake pedal and more effort is
required on the steering wheel. Do not use
flexible cables when towing and avoid jerky
movements. During towing, make sure that
the trailer hitch does not damage any
components it is touching. When towing the
car, it is compulsory to respect specific
highway code regulations relating to the tow
hook and procedures for towing on the
road. Do not start the engine while towing
the car.
