key Lancia Ypsilon 2012 Owner handbook (in English)

VERY IMPORTANTREFUELLING
Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded
petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than
95 in compliance with the European Standard
EN228.
The use of petrol that does not conform to the
above-mentioned specification will cause the
EOBD warning light to come on and the
irregular operation of the engine.
Diesel engines: refuel only with diesel fuel
conforming to the European specification
EN590. The use of other products or mixtures
may damage the engine beyond repair and
consequently invalidate the warranty.
STARTING THE ENGINEMake sure that the handbrake is engaged;
place the gear lever in neutral. Fully depress
the clutch pedal, without pressing the
accelerator, then turn the ignition key to the
MAR position and wait for the
and
warning lights to switch off (diesel
versions); turn the ignition key to the AVV
position and release it as soon as the engine
starts.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter develops high
temperatures during operation. Do not park
the car on grass, dry leaves, pine needles
or other flammable material: fire hazard.RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The car is fitted with a system that allows
continuous diagnosis of the components
related to emissions to ensure increased respect
for the environment.
ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIESIf, after buying the car, you decide to add
electrical accessories (with the risk of
gradually draining the battery), contact a
Lancia Dealership. They can calculate the
overall electrical requirement and check that
the car's electric system can support the
required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICINGCorrect maintenance of the car is essential for
ensuring that it maintains its performance
and its safety features, its environmental
friendliness and low running costs for a long
time to come.
THE OWNER MANUAL CONTAINS…... important information, advice and warnings
for correct use, driving safety and maintenance
of your car over time. Special attention must
be paid to the symbols provided
(safety
of persons)
(environmental protection)
(car integrity).

DISPLAYThe car may be provided with a multifunction/
reconfigurable multifunction display that shows
useful information, according to the previous
settings, when driving.
With the ignition key removed, the display
activates and shows the time and total milometer
reading (in km or miles) for a few seconds when
a door is opened/closed.
NOTE With a low outside temperature (below
0°C) it may take longer than normal for
information to appear on the display.

GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
The GSI (Gear Shift Indicator) system advises the
driver to change gear through a specific indication
on the control panel fig. 7. Through the GSI, the
driver is notified that changing gear will allow
a reduction in fuel consumption.
When the SHIFT UP icon (
SHIFT) is shown on
the display, the GSI is advising the driver to
engage a higher gear, while the SHIFT DOWN (
SHIFT) icon advises the driver to engage a
lower gear.
The indication in the instrument panel remains on
until the driver changes gear or the driving
conditions return to a situation where changing
gear is not required to improve consumption.WELCOME MOVEMENT
On some versions, when the key is turned to MAR,
the following occurs:
❒quick movement (up and down) of the
speedometer and rpm gauge
❒lighting of graphic symbols/display
❒display of the Lancia logo.fig. 7

This function can only be displayed after a Lancia
Dealership has deactivated the SBR system (see
"SBR system" in the "Safety" chapter).
Service (Scheduled servicing)
Using this function you can display information
about the mileage or daily intervals for car
servicing. With the Service function it is also
possible to view the interval (in kilometres or
miles) before the next engine oil change is due.
To consult this display, proceed as follows:
❒briefly press the

(km) or miles (mi) according to the previous
setting (see "Distance units of measurement"
paragraph);
❒briefly press button

miles). This is automatically displayed, when the
ignition key is turned to MAR, from 2,000 km
(or the equivalent in miles) and reappears every
200 km (or the equivalent in miles). Below 200
km servicing indications are more frequent. The
display will be in kilometres or miles depending
on the measurement unit settings. When the next
scheduled service is approaching, the message
"Service" will appear on the display, followed by
the number of kilometres or miles left, when
the key is turned to MAR. Contact a Lancia
Dealership where the operations of the "Scheduled

TRIP COMPUTERGeneral information
The Trip computer is used to display information
on car operation when the key is turned to
MAR-ON. This function allows you to define two
separate trips, called “Trip A” and “Trip B”,
for monitoring the car's "complete mission"
(journey) in a reciprocally independent manner.
Both functions are resettable (reset - start of a new
journey).
“Trip A” is used to display the figures relating to:
❒Outside temperature (for LPG/Natural Power
versions equipped with multifunction display)
❒Range
❒Distance travelled
❒Average consumption
❒Instantaneous consumption
❒Average speed
❒Trip time (driving time).
“Trip B” may be used to display the figures
relating to:
❒Distance travelled B
❒Average consumption B
❒Average speed B
❒Trip time B (driving time).Note“Trip B” may be disabled (see “Activating
Trip B”). “Range” and “Instantaneous fuel
consumption" parameters cannot be reset.
Values displayed
Range
This indicates the approximate distance which can
be travelled with the amount of fuel present in
the tank. “----”will appear on the display in the
following cases:
❒range value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
❒car parked with engine running for a long
period.
IMPORTANT The range value variation can be
affected by several factors: driving style, type
of route (motorway, towns and cities, mountain
roads, etc.), conditions of use (load, tyre pressures,
etc.). Trip planning must therefore take the above
into account.

THE LANCIA CODE SYSTEMTo further protect your car from theft, it has been
fitted with an engine immobilising system. It is
automatically activated when the ignition key
is removed.
Each key contains an electronic device which
modulates the signal emitted during ignition by an
antenna built into the ignition device. The signal
is the "password", different every time the car
is started, through which the control unit
recognises the key and enables starting.
OPERATION
Each time the car is started by turning the ignition
key to MAR, the Lancia CODE system control
unit sends an acknowledgement code to the engine
control unit to deactivate the immobilizer. The
code is sent only if the control unit of the Lancia
CODE system has acknowledged the code received
from the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to STOP, the
Lancia CODE system deactivates the functions
of the engine management control unit. If, during
starting, the code is not correctly recognised, the
warning light switches on in the instrument
panel. In this case, turn the key to STOP and then
to MAR; if it is still locked, try again with the
other keys that come with the vehicle. Contact a
Lancia Dealership if you still cannot start the
engine.Warning light
switching on while driving
If the
warning light switches on, this means
that the system is running a self-diagnosis (for
example for a voltage drop). If the problem
persists, contact a Lancia Dealership.
