instrument panel Lancia Ypsilon 2014 Owner handbook (in English)

Search for a parking space
While searching fig. 82 the car should continue
following its route at a speed of below 30 km/h
and at a distance of around 50 cm to 130 cm from
parked cars. A parking space is considered
suitable if it is about 80 cm longer than the
dimensions of the car.
Selection of search side and carrying out
manoeuvre
To select the search side and carry out the
manoeuvre, proceed as follows:
1)
Choose to carry out the search for the space
and the manoeuvre on the passenger side with:
❒direction indicator in middle position;
❒hazard warning lights on;
❒hazard warning lights on and direction indicator
in passenger side position;
❒direction indicator activated in passenger side
position.2)
Choose to carry out the search for the space
and the manoeuvre on the driver's side with:
❒direction indicator activated in driver's side
position;
❒hazard warning lights on and direction indicator
in driver's side position.
The system will notify the driver of the side on
which the search and the manoeuvre will take
place by displaying messages and switching on the
or
warning lights on the instrument panel.
Searching occurs on both sides of the road:
therefore the selection can be made through the
direction indicators even after having passed
a suitable parking place.
IMPORTANT While searching, speed should not
exceed 30 km/h; when 25 km/h has been reached,
the driver is asked to decrease the speed; if the
speed of 30 km/h is exceeded, the system is
disabled; in this case, the system must be restarted
by pressing button
).

The car can be stopped during the manoeuvre
and, whilst remaining stationary, reverse gear can
temporarily be released (for example, to allow a
pedestrian to pass through the area of the
manoeuvre).
The speed should be less than about 7 km/h
during the manoeuvre, otherwise the parking
manoeuvre will be interrupted.
If the driver carries out a voluntary or involuntary
action on the steering during the parking
manoeuvre (touching it or preventing its
movement), the manoeuvre will be interrupted.
If the road surface is very uneven or there are
obstacles under the wheels affecting the movement
of the car, preventing it from continuing along
the correct trajectory, the manoeuvre may be
interrupted.End of manoeuvre
If the size of parking space permits, the parking
manoeuvre may be performed in one manoeuvre.
When the reverse gear is disengaged the wheels
will be realigned and the manoeuvre will be
considered completed (the system will
consequently be deactivated).
If the size of the parking space is smaller, it may
take several manoeuvres: the driver will be
advised to complete the parking manoeuvre
manually via a dedicated message in the
instrument panel display.
WARNING
If you wish to stop the steering wheel
with your hands during a manoeuvre,
it is advisable to handle it firmly on the
outer rim. Do not try and keep your hands
on the inside or hold the spokes.

S.B.R. SYSTEM (Seat Belt Reminder)This system consists of a device which, in
conjunction with the
warning light flashing on
the instrument panel and an intermittent acoustic
signal, warns the driver and front passenger if
their seat belts have not been fastened.
There is also a reminder above the internal rear
view mirror fig. 96 (4-seater versions), or fig. 97
(5-seater versions) which advises front and rear
seat passengers, by means of a visual and acoustic
indication, that their seat belts are not fastened.
For versions/markets where provided, contact
a Lancia Dealership should you wish to
permanently deactivate the SBR system. The
system can only be reactivated through the display
Setup Menu (see “Knowing your car” section).
The warning lights may be red or green and
operate as follows:
4-seater versions
❒1 = front left seat (driver status for left-hand
drive versions);
❒2 = rear left seat (passenger);
❒3 = rear right seat (passenger);
❒4 = front right seat (passenger status for
left-hand drive versions).

All restraint devices must bear the type-approval
data along with the control mark on a label firmly
secured to the child seat which must never be
removed. When over 1.50 m in height, from the
point of view of restraint systems, children are
considered as adults and have to wear the
standard seat belts. Lineaccessori Lancia includes
child seats for each weight group. These devices
are recommended having been specifically
designed for Lancia cars.
WARNING
Do not arrange cradle child seats
facing backwards if the front air bag
on the passenger's side is enabled.
Deployment of the air bag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the baby
regardless of the severity of the collision. It
is advisable to always carry children in a
child seat on the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of a collision.
WARNING
Should it be absolutely necessary to
carry a child on the front seat in a
backwards-facing craddle seat, the
passenger's front and side air bags must be
deactivated through the Setup menu.
Deactivation should be verified by checking
the warning light on the instrument panel.
The passenger seat must also be positioned
back as far as possible in order to avoid
the child seat from coming into contact with
the dashboard.

Main safety rules to be followed when
carrying children:
❒Install the child seats on the rear seat, which is
the most protected position in the event of an
accident.
❒If the passenger's air bag is deactivated always
check the warning light on the instrument
panel to make sure that it has actually been
deactivated.
❒Carefully follow the instructions supplied with
the child seat which are mandatory by law.
Keep the instructions in the car along with the
other documents and this handbook. Do not use
second-hand child seats without instructions.
❒Always check that the seat belt is well fastened
by pulling on it.
❒Only one child is to be strapped into each
retaining system; never carry two children using
one child seat.
❒Always check that the seat belts do not restrain
the child's throat.
❒While travelling, do not let the child sit
incorrectly or release the belts.
❒Never carry children on your lap, even
newborns. No-one can restrain a child in the
event of an accident.
❒In the event of an accident, replace the child
seat with a new one.
ISOFIX CHILD SEAT SETUPThe car can be fitted with a Universal Isofix child
seat, a new European standardised system for
carrying children safely.
Isofix systems can be fitted alongside traditional
child seat. An example of Universal Isofix child
seat covering weight group 1 is shown in fig. 105.
Specific Isofix child seats cover the other weight
groups. These seats must be designed, tested
and type-approved specifically for this car (refer
to the list of cars attached to the child seat).
IMPORTANT The central rear seat is not
approved for any type of Isofix seats

WARNING
It is dangerous to run the engine in
enclosed areas. The engine takes
in oxygen and releases carbon dioxide,
carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.
WARNING
Remember that the brake servo and
power steering are not operational
until the engine has been started, therefore
much effort than usual is required on the
brake pedal and steering wheel.

STARTING PROCEDURE FOR DIESEL
VERSIONS
Proceed as follows:
❒engage the handbrake and place the gearbox in
neutral;
❒turn the ignition key to MAR: the warning lights
and
on the instrument panel will turn
on;
❒wait for the warning lights
and
to
switch off;
❒press the clutch pedal down to the floor without
touching the accelerator;
❒turn the ignition key to AVV as soon as warning
light
switches off. Waiting too long will
waste the work done by the glow plugs. Release
the key as soon as the engine starts.
IMPORTANT With cold engine, the accelerator
must be entirely released when turning the
ignition key to position AVV.
If the engine does not start at the first attempt,
return the ignition key to STOP before repeating
the procedure.

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.
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).
