snow chains Lancia Ypsilon 2014 Owner handbook (in English)

Activation/deactivation of the ASR system
The ASR system activates automatically each time
the engine is started.
Whilst driving, the ASR can be deactivated and
subsequently activated again by pressing the ASR
OFF button fig. 70.
On some versions, the intervention of the system is
indicated by a message shown on the display.
When the system is not active, the LED on the
button ASR OFF turns on and, on some versions,
a message appears on the display.
When the ASR is deactivated whilst driving, the
next time the car is started the ASR is
automatically activated.
When travelling on snowy roads with snow chains,
it may be helpful to turn the ASR off: in fact, in
these conditions, slipping of the drive wheels when
moving off makes it possible to obtain better
traction.
WARNING
For the ESC and ASR systems to
function correctly, all four tyres must,
above all, be the type, brand and size
prescribed, of the same brand and type, and
must be in excellent condition.
WARNING
The ESC functions even when the
space-saver wheel is being used.
Always remember that the space-saver
wheel, being smaller than the original
wheel, provides less grip.
WARNING
Do not take unnecessary risks, even if
your vehicle is fitted with the ESC
and ASR systems. Your driving style must
always be suited to the road conditions,
visibility and traffic. The driver is always
responsible for road safety.

❒If a parking manoeuvre is being carried out
between two parked vehicles alongside the
pavement, the Magic Parking system may cause
the car to mount the pavement.
❒Some manoeuvres at very tight bends may not
be carried out.
❒Take great care to ensure that conditions do not
change during the parking manoeuvre (e.g. if
there are persons and/or animals in the parking
area, moving cars, etc.) and intervene
immediately if necessary.
❒During parking manoeuvres, pay attention to
cars approaching from the opposite direction.
Always follow the Highway Code.
IMPORTANT Correct system operation is not
guaranteed if snow chains or emergency wheels
are fitted.
IMPORTANT The correct positioning of the car
inside the parking space detected by the system
depends on various factors, in particular the
circumference of the wheels. For example,
if wheels with a 14" diameter are fitted, the
position of the car inside the parking area could
be slightly different.MESSAGES ON THE DISPLAY
Search in progress:the Magic Parking system is
searching for a suitable parking space.
Parking found:the Magic Parking system has
found a suitable parking space.
Drive forward:the Magic Parking system
requests the driver to proceed slowly to bring the
car to the correct position before starting the
semi-automatic manoeuvre or, during the
semi-automatic manoeuvre, the system requests
the driver to engage the forward gear to continue
the manoeuvre.
Engaging reverse:a suitable parking place has
been found and the position is correct for starting
the parking manoeuvre. Stop and engage reverse.
Disengage reverse:when the Magic Parking
activation button is pressed, reverse gear must be
released for the system to be switched on.
Magic Parking: steering wheel being usedThe
manoeuvre is about to begin, the driver is
requested to release the steering wheel.
Drive backwards - Magic Parking: steering
wheel being used:The manoeuvre has started,
the driver can accelerate and release the clutch (in
the case of a manual gearbox) to enter the parking
space. The system manages the steering
automatically.

STORING THE CARIf the car is to be left inactive for longer than a
month, the following precautions should be
observed:
❒park the car in covered, dry and if possible
well-ventilated premises and slightly open
the windows;
❒engage a gear and check that the handbrake is
not engaged;
❒disconnect the negative battery terminal (for
versions with Start&Stop system refer to the
paragraph "Start&Stop system" in the chapter
"Knowing your car"); If the battery is not
disconnected the from the electrical system,
check its charge every thirty days;
❒clean and protect the painted parts using
protective wax;
❒clean and protect the shiny metal parts using
special compounds available commercially;
❒sprinkle talcum powder on the rubber
windscreen and rear window wiper blades and
lift them off the glass;
❒cover the car with a cloth or perforated plastic
sheet. Do not use sheets of non-perforated
plastic as they do not allow moisture on the car
body to evaporate;
❒inflate tyres to +0.5 bar above the standard
specified pressure and check it at intervals;
❒do not drain the engine cooling system.

SNOW CHAINSThe use of snow chains should be in compliance
with local regulations.
The snow chains may be applied only onto the
front wheel tyres (drive wheels).
Check the tension of the snow chains after the first
few metres have been driven.
IMPORTANT Snow chains cannot be fitted to the
space-saver wheel (for versions/markets, where
provided). If the front tyre has a puncture, replace
a rear wheel with the sapce-saver wheel and
move the rear wheel to the front axle. This way
with two normal drive wheels, snow chains can be
fitted to them to solve an emergency.
Keep your speed down when snow
chains are fitted; do not exceed 50
km/h. Avoid potholes, steps and
pavements and avoid driving for long
distances on roads not covered with snow to
prevent damaging the car and the roadbed.

WARNING
The jack provided is only intended to
be used for replacing tyres on the
car with which it is supplied, or on
same-model vehicles. Never use the jack for
other purposes, such as lifting other car
models. Never use it for repair operations
under the car. Incorrectly positioning the
jack may cause the car to fall. Do not use the
jack for loads higher than the one shown
on its label. Never install snow chains on the
space-saver wheel; if a front tyre (driving
wheel) is punctured and you need to use
snow chains, use a standard wheel from the
rear axle and install the space-saver wheel
on the rear axle. In this way, with two
normal drive wheels, it is possible to use
snow chains.
WARNING
Fit the wheel cap correctly to prevent
it from coming free in motion. Never
tamper with the inflating valve. Never
introduce tools of any kind between rim and
tyre. Check tyre and space-saver wheel
pressures regularly, referring to the values
shown in the "Technical specifications"
section.JACK
Important notes:
❒the jack weight is 1,76 kg;
❒the jack requires no adjustment;
❒the jack cannot be repaired and in the event of a
fault it must be replaced by another original
one;
❒no tool other than its cranking device may be
fitted on the jack.
