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).

JUMP STARTING
When jump starting, never connect the negative
lead (-) of the auxiliary battery to the negative
pole A fig. 73 of the car battery, but rather to an
engine/gearbox earth point.IMPORTANT NOTES
WARNING
Before opening the bonnet, make sure
that the engine is off and that the
ignition key is in the STOP position. Follow
the instructions on the dedicated label on the
front crossmember fig. 74. We recommend
that you remove the key from the ignition
if other people remain in the vehicle. Exit
from the car only after having removed the
ignition key or having rotated it to the STOP
position. During refuelling, make sure the
car has been stopped and the key is in STOP
position.

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.

the Fix&Go Automatic container (versions
equipped with Fix&Go Automatic) fig. 90;
❒open the flap A pulling it outwards;
❒insert adapter B in the filler as shown in fig. 91
and refuel;
❒after refuelling, remove the adapter and close
the flap;
❒reintroduce the adapter in the box and put this
back in the luggage compartment.

GLOW PLUG HEATING/GLOW PLUG
HEATING FAILURE (Diesel versions)
(amber)
GLOW PLUG HEATING
The warning light switches on when the key is
turned to MAR and switches off as soon as the
glow plugs have reached the preset temperature.
The engine can be started as soon as the warning
light switches off.
IMPORTANT At high ambient temperatures the
warning light may stay on for an extremely short
time.
GLOW PLUG HEATING FAILURE
The warning light flashes (together with a
message and a symbol on the display on some
versions) to indicate a fault in the glow plugs
preheating system. Contact a Lancia Dealership to
have the fault fixed as soon as possible.WATER IN DIESEL FUEL FILTER
(Diesel versions) (amber)
The warning light remains on constantly when
driving (together with a message and a symbol on
the display on some versions), to indicate the
presence of water in the diesel fuel filter.
The presence of water in the supply
circuit may cause severe damage to the
injection system and irregular engine
operation. If the
warning light switches on,
contact a Lancia Dealership as soon as
possible for bleeding. If this problem
is indicated immediately after refuelling,
water may have entered the fuel tank. In this
case, stop the engine immediately and contact
a Lancia Dealership.
“DUALDRIVE” ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING FAILURE (red)
This warning light switches on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off
after a few seconds.
If the warning light (or, on some versions, a
message and a symbol on the display) remains on,
you may not have steering assistance and the
effort required to operate the steering wheel could
be notably increased; steering is, however,
possible. In this case, contact a Lancia Dealership.
