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).

WARNING
The driving speed should always be
suitable to traffic conditions, weather
conditions and the driver should always
comply with the Highway Code. The engine
may be turned off while the DPF light is
on; however, repeated interruption of the
regeneration process may result in
premature exhaustion of engine oil. For this
reason, always wait until the warning light
switches off before stopping the engine as
described above. It is not a good idea to
complete DPF regeneration with the
car stationary.GENERIC FAILURE INDICATION
(amber)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on in the following
circumstances. In these cases contact a Lancia
Dealership to have the fault fixed as soon as
possible.
Speed limit exceeded
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on (together with a
message on the display) when the speed limit set
in the Setup Menu is exceeded.When the car exceeds this value, on some versions
a message and a symbol are shown in the display
and an acoustic signal is emitted.
Fuel cut-off system intervention/fault
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on (together with a
message on the display) in the event of fuel cut-off
system intervention/fault.
Start&Stop failure
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on (together with a
message on the display) when a Start&Stop
system failure is detected.
Rain sensor failure
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on (together with a
message on the display) when a rain sensor failure
is detected.
Parking sensor failure
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on (together with a
message on the display) when a parking sensor
failure is detected.

IN AN EMERGENCY
In an emergency we recommend that you call the free-phone number found on the Warranty
Booklet. It is also possible to go to the www.lancia.com website to find the closest Lancia
Dealership.STARTING THE ENGINEGo to a Lancia Dealership immediately if
instrument panel warning light
remains on
constantly.
JUMP STARTING
If the battery is flat, the engine may be started
using an auxiliary battery with the same capacity
or a little higher than the flat one.To start the vehicle, proceed as follows:
❒connect the positive terminals (sign + near the
terminal) of the two batteries with a jump lead
fig. 114;
❒with a second lead, connect the negative
terminal – of the auxiliary battery to an
earthing point
on the engine or the gearbox of
the car to be started;
❒start the engine;
❒when the engine has been started, remove the
leads reversing the order above.
For versions with Start&Stop system, in case of
starting by auxiliary battery, refer to the
paragraph “Start&Stop system” in the chapter
“Getting to know your car”.
If after a few attempts the engine does not start,
do not persist but contact a Lancia Dealership.
IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the negative
terminals of the two batteries: sparks could ignite
explosive gas released from the battery. If the
auxiliary battery is installed on another car,
prevent accidental contact between metallic parts
of the two cars.

WARNING
If you change the type of wheel (alloy
rims instead of steel rims and vice
versa) you will have to change the entire set
of fastening bolts with another set of suitably
sized bolts.
WARNING
Alert other drivers that the car is
stationary in compliance with local
regulations: hazard warning lights, warning
triangle, etc. Any passengers on board
should leave the car, especially if it is
heavily laden. Passengers should stay away
from on-coming traffic while the wheel is
being changed. On hills or uneven roads, use
chocks or appropriate objects to block the
wheels of the car.
WARNING
The car's driving characteristics will
be modified with the space-saver
wheel fitted. Avoid sudden starting or
stopping, sharp or fast turns. The total life of
a space-saver wheel is approximately 3000
km, after which it must be replaced by
another wheel of the same type. Never install
a standard tyre on a rim that is designed
for use with a space-saver wheel. Have the
tyre repaired and refitted as soon as
possible. Using two or more space-saver
wheels at the same time is forbidden. Do not
grease the threads of bolts before fitting
them: they might slip out.

IMPORTANT To get a more precise reading, it is
recommended to check the value with compressor
off.
❒If the pressure does not reach at least 1.5 bar in
5 minutes, switch the compressor off and
disconnect the filling pipe B from the tyre valve,
then remove the plug H;
❒move the car of about 10 m, to distribute the
sealant inside the tyre, then inflate again;
IMPORTANT If after this operation it is still
impossible, after 5 minutes, to reach at least 1.5
bar, do not start driving since the tyre is
excessively damaged and the Fix&Go kit cannot
guarantee proper hold. In this case, go to a Lancia
Dealership.
fig. 127
L0F0305
❒if the tyre reaches the pressure specified, start
driving immediately;
❒after driving for about 10 minutes stop, operate
the handbrake and check the tyre pressure
again.
WARNING
Apply the adhesive label where it can
be easily seen by the driver as a
reminder that the tyre has been treated with
the Fix&Go kit. Drive carefully, particularly
on bends. Do not exceed 80 km/h. Do not
accelerate or brake suddenly.
WARNING
If pressure has fallen below 1.5 bar,
do not drive any further: the Fix&Go
kit cannot guarantee the correct hold
because the tyre is too damaged, contact a
Lancia Dealership. If instead a pressure
value of at least 1.5 bar is detected, restore
the correct pressure (with the engine
running and the handbrake engaged),
resume driving and drive with care to the
nearest Lancia Dealership.
