"ENERGY SAVING" FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If, following automatic engine restarting, the
driver does not carry out any action on the car for
over 3 minutes, the Start&Stop system stops the
engine once and for all, to prevent fuel
consumption. In these cases, the engine can be
restarted only using the ignition key.
NoteIn any case, it is possible to keep the engine
running by deactivating the Start&Stop system.
IRREGULAR OPERATION
In the event of malfunction, the Start&Stop
system is deactivated.
Versions with multifunction display: the
warning light on the instrument panel switches
on and a message appears on the display in the
event of Start&Stop system failure.
Versions with reconfigurable multifunction
display: the
icon switches on and a message
appears on the display in the event of Start&Stop
system failure.
In the event of a Start&Stop system failure,
contact a Lancia Dealership.CAR INACTIVITY
In the event of car inactivity, special attention
must be paid due to the disconnection of the
battery power supply.
Proceed as follows: detach the connector A fig. 72
(by pressing button B) from sensor C for
monitoring the status of the battery installed on
the negative battery pole D. This sensor should
never be disconnected from the pole except if the
battery is replaced.
WARNING
When replacing the battery, always
contact a Lancia Dealership. Replace
the battery with one of the same type
(HEAVY DUTY) and with the same
specifications.

REFUELLING THE CARVersions equipped with "Smart Fuel" system are
provided with an inhibiter which prevents
refuelling with incorrect fuel.
Accidental refuelling with non compliant fuels (for
example petrol in Diesel engines) can only occur
in the case of versions equipped with fuel tank
cap. Before refuelling, make sure that the fuel type
is correct.
Stop the engine before refuelling.
PETROL ENGINES
Use unleaded petrol only, with an octane number
(R.O.N.) no lower than 95. In order to prevent
damage to the catalytic converter never introduce
even the smallest amount of leaded petrol, even
in the event of an emergency.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalytic converter
leads to harmful exhaust emissions, thus
contributing to air pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol, even in
small amounts or in an emergency, as this would
damage the catalytic converter beyond repair.DIESEL ENGINES
Operation at low temperatures
If the outside temperature is very low, the diesel
thickens due to the formation of paraffin clots
with consequent defective operation of the fuel
supply system.
In order to avoid these problems, different types of
diesel fuel are distributed according to the season:
summer type, winter type and arctic type
(cold/mountain areas). If refuelling with diesel
fuel whose specifications are not suitable for the
current temperature, it is advisable to mix
TUTELA DIESEL ART additive in the
proportions shown on the container with the fuel.
Pour the additive into the tank before the diesel
fuel.

When using or parking the car for a long time in
the mountains or cold areas, it is advisable to
refuel using locally available diesel. In this case, it
is also advisable to keep the tank over 50% full.
For diesel engines, use only diesel fuel
for motor vehicles in accordance with
EN590 European specifications. The
use of other products or mixtures may damage
the engine beyond repair and consequently
invalidate the warranty, depending on the
damage caused. If you accidentally refuel with
another type of fuel, do not start the engine,
and drain the fuel tank. If the engine has been
run, even for only a very short time, you will
need to have the entire fuel system emptied in
addition to the tank.
REFUELLING CAPACITY
To fill the tank completely, top up twice after the
pump switches off. Further top-ups could cause
faults in the fuel feeding system.
REFUELLING PROCEDURE FOR VERSIONS
EQUIPPED WITH FUEL TANK PLUG
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Refuel as follows:
❒open the flap A fig. 87 pulling it outwards;
❒keep the plug B still, insert the ignition key in
the lock and turn it anticlockwise;
❒Turn the plug anticlockwise and remove it.The plug has a device C fig. 87 that attaches it to
the flap so that it cannot be lost. When refilling,
attach the plug to the flap, as shown.
After refuelling, fit the plug B fig. 87 (complete
with key) and turn it clockwise until it clicks once
or more. Turn the key clockwise and remove it.
Close the flap A.
The sealing may cause a slight pressure increase in
the tank. A little breathing off, while unscrewing
the plug or introducing the gun in the versions
equipped with "Smart Fuel", is therefore
absolutely normal.

REFUELLING PROCEDURE FOR VERSIONS
EQUIPPED WITH "SMART FUEL" SYSTEM
"Smart Fuel" is a device integrated with the end
of the fuel filler pipe which opens and recloses
automatically when the fuel delivery gun is
introduced/removed. "Smart Fuel" is provided
with an inhibiter which prevents refuelling with
incorrect fuel.
The refuelling procedure described here is
illustrated on label B fig. 88, which is applied
inside the fuel flap. The label also indicates the
fuel type (UNLEADED FUEL=petrol,
DIESEL=diesel fuel).
To refuel proceed as follows:
❒open the flap A fig. 88 pulling it outwards;
❒introduce the dispenser in the filler and refuel;
❒at the end of refuelling, before removing the
dispenser, wait for at least 10 in order for the
fuel to flow inside the tank;
❒then remove the dispenser from the filler and
close the flap A.
Flap A fig. 88 is provided with a dust cowl C
which prevents deposits of impurities and dust at
the end of the filler when the flap is closed.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR VERSIONS
EQUIPPED WITH "Smart Fuel"
WARNING
At the end of the filler do not apply
any object/plug which is not provided
for for the car. The use of non compliant
objects/plugs could cause a pressure
increase inside the tank, generating
dangerous situations.
WARNING
Do not bring naked flames or lit
cigarettes near to the fuel filler: fire
risk. Keep your face away from the fuel filler
to prevent breathing in harmful vapours.
IMPORTANT If the filler compartment is washed
with a high pressure jet, keep it at a distance of
at least 20 cm.
PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENTThe following devices are used for reducing petrol
fuel engine emissions: catalytic converter, oxygen
sensors and evaporation control system
Do not let the engine run, even for a test, with one
or more spark plugs disconnected.
The following devices are used for reducing diesel
fuel engine emissions: oxidising catalytic
converter, exhaust gas recirculation system (EGR)
and particulate filter (DPF).
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechanical filter,
integral with the exhaust system, that physically
traps particulates present in the exhaust gases
of Diesel engines.
The diesel particulate filter is needed to eliminate
almost all particulates in compliance with current
/ future legislation.
During normal use of the vehicle, the engine
control unit records a set of data (e.g. travel time,
type of route, temperatures, etc.) and it will then
calculate how much particulate has been trapped
by the filter.
Since this filter physically traps particulate, it
should be regenerated (cleaned) at regular
intervals by burning the carbon particles.

FUEL CONSUMPTIONThe fuel consumption figures given in the table below are determined on the basis of the type-approval
tests laid down by specific European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for measuring consumption:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the car;
❒extra-urban cycle: frequent accelerating in all gears, simulating extraurban use of the car: speed
varies between 0 and 120 km/h;
❒combined fuel consumption: calculated with a weighting of approximately 37% of the urban cycle
and 63% of the extra-urban cycle.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic conditions, weather conditions, driving style, general condition
of the car, trim level/equipment/accessories, use of the climate control, car load, presence of roof racks
and other situations that adversely affect the aerodynamics or wind resistance lead to different fuel
consumption figures than those measured.
