WARNING
If when turning the key to MAR the
warning light
does not turn on
or stays on whilst driving, a failure may have
occurred in the restraint systems. In this
case the air bags or pretensioners may not
be deployed in an impact or, in a lower
number of cases, they may be deployed
accidentally. Before continuing, contact a
Lancia Dealership immediately to have the
system checked.
WARNING
A fault with the
warning light is
indicated by flashing of the
warning light, which signals the
deactivation of the passenger side front air
bag. In addition, the airbag system
automatically disables the air bags on the
passenger's side (both front and side airbags
for versions/markets, where provided). In
this case, the warning light
may not
indicate a fault in the restraint systems.
Before continuing, contact a Lancia
Dealership immediately to have the system
checked.
PASSENGER/SIDE AIR BAGS
DEACTIVATED (amber)
The
warning light switches on when the front
passenger's airbag and side bag are disabled.
With front passenger airbag on, when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, the
warning light
switches on constantly for several seconds, flashes
for another few seconds and then should switch
off.
WARNING
A failure of the
warning light is
indicated by warning light
switching on. In addition, the airbag
system automatically disables the airbags on
the passenger's side (both front and side
airbags where provided). Before continuing,
contact a Lancia Dealership immediately
to have the system checked.

UNFASTENED SEAT BELTS (red)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on constantly with the
car stationary and the driver's side or passenger
side seat belt (when the passenger is present)
not fastened.
The warning light will flash and a buzzer will
sound if the vehicle is in motion and the front seat
belts are not correctly fastened.
Contact a Lancia Dealership if you wish to
permanently deactivate the S.B.R. (Seat Belt
Reminder) system buzzer. The system can be
reactivated using the Setup menu (see the
description in the chapter "Knowing your car").LOW BATTERY CHARGE (red)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR, the
warning light switches on but should switch off as
soon as the engine is started (with the engine
idling, a brief delay can be expected).
If the warning light (or, on some versions, a
message and a symbol on the display) remains on
constantly or flashing, contact a Lancia
Dealership.
CONTINUOUSLY ON: LOW ENGINE
OIL PRESSURE (red)
ON FLASHING: ENGINE OIL
DETERIORATED
(only Diesel versions with DPF - red)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR, the
warning light switches on but should switch off as
soon as the engine is started.
1. Insufficient engine oil pressure
The warning light switches on constantly together
(for versions/markets, where provided) with a
message on the display when the system detects
that the engine oil pressure is too low.
WARNING

If the warning light remains on or switches on
whilst driving, the injection system is not working
properly; in particular, if the warning light
switches on constantly, this indicates a
malfunction in the supply/ignition system that
could cause excessive exhaust emissions, a possible
loss of performance, poor driveability and high
fuel consumption.
Under these conditions, you may continue
travelling at moderate speed without demanding
excessive effort from the engine. Prolonged use
of the car with the warning light on may cause
damage. Contact a Lancia Dealership as soon as
possible.
The warning light goes out after the fault
disappears, but the notification is stored in the
system.
NOTE (valid only for petrol engines)
If the warning light is flashing, the catalytic
converter could be damaged.
In this case, it is necessary to release the
accelerator pedal to lower the speed of the engine
until the warning light stops flashing; continue the
journey at moderate speed, trying to avoid
driving conditions that may cause further flashing
and contact a Lancia Dealership as soon as
possible.
Go to a Lancia Dealership as soon as
possible if
warning light either does
not light up when the key is turned to
MAR or if while travelling the warning light
comes on either constantly or flashing (along
with a message and a symbol on the display
on some versions). The operation of warning
light
may be checked by the traffic police
using specific devices. Comply with the laws
and regulations of the country where you
are driving.ESC SYSTEM FAILURE (amber)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Turning the key to the MAR-ON position
illuminates the warning light, but it should switch
off after a few seconds.
If the warning light does not switch off or remains
on (along with a message and a symbol on the
display on some versions) whilst driving, contact a
Lancia Dealership. Flashing of the warning light
while driving indicates the intervention of the ESC
system.

Hill Holder failure
This warning light switches on, on some versions
together with the
symbol and a message in
the display, in the event of a Hill Holder system
failure. In this case, go to a Lancia Dealership.

“DUALDRIVE” ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING FAILURE (red)
This warning light switches on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, 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, contact 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 switches on when the Cruise
Control ring nut is turned to the ON position (see
the “Cruise Control” paragraph in the "Knowing
your car" section). On some versions the display
shows the dedicated message.DPF (PARTICULATE FILTER) BEING
CLEANED
(only Diesel versions with DPF) (amber)
Turning the key to the MAR-ON position
illuminates the warning light, 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) through the regeneration process.

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 “Fix&Go Automatic
Kit” for how to use this device.
As an alternative to the “Fix&Go Automatic 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.

REPLACING FUSESGENERAL INFORMATION
Fuses protect the electrical system: they intervene
(blow) in the event of a fault or improper
intervention on the system.
When a device does not work, check the condition
of its protective fuse: the conductor element A
fig. 151 must be intact. If it is not, replace the
blown fuse with another with the same amperage
(same colour).
B = intact fuse;
C = fuse with damaged filament.
To replace a fuse, use the tweeters D hooked to the
fuse box lid on the left-hand side of the
dashboard.
Refer to the tables on the following pages to
identify the protective fuse.
WARNING
If a fuse blows again, contact a
Lancia Dealership.
WARNING
Never replace a fuse with metal wires
or anything else.
WARNING
Never replace a fuse with another
with a higher amp rating; DANGER
OF FIRE.
WARNING
If a general protective fuse (MEGA-
FUSE, MIDI-FUSE, MAXI-FUSE)
blows contact a Lancia Dealership.
WARNING
Before replacing a fuse, make sure
that the ignition key has been
removed and that all the other services are
switched off and/or disengaged.
