technical specifications Lancia Ypsilon 2013 Owner handbook (in English)

Due to the high supply voltage, Xenon
gas-discharge bulbs (for versions/
markets, where provided) must only be
replaced by a specialist technician: danger of
death! Contact a Lancia Dealership.IMPORTANT When the weather is cold or damp
or after heavy rain or washing, the surface of
headlights or rear lights, may steam up and/or
form drops of condensation on the inside. This is a
natural phenomenon due to the difference in
temperature and humidity between the inside and
the outside of the glass which does not indicate a
fault and does not compromise the normal
operation of lighting devices. The mist disappears
quickly when the lights are turned on, starting
from the centre of the diffuser, extending
progressively towards the edges.
