handbrake Lancia Ypsilon 2015 Owner handbook (in English)

HANDBRAKE ENGAGED
When the key is turned to MAR position, the
warning light switches on but should switch off
after a few seconds.
IMPORTANT If the warning light comes on when
the car is in motion, check that the handbrake
is not on.
EBD FAILURE (red)
(amber)
The simultaneous switching on of the
(red),
(amber) andESCwarning lights with the
engine on, indicates either a failure of the EBD
system or that the system is not available. In this
case, the rear wheels may suddenly lock and
the vehicle may swerve when braking sharply.
Drive very carefully to the nearest Lancia
Dealership to have the system inspected
immediately. On some versions the display shows
the dedicated message.
ABS SYSTEM FAILURE (amber)
Turning the key to the MAR position switches on
the warning light, but it should switch off after
a few seconds. The warning light switches on (on
some versions, with a message on the display
and a symbol on the display) when the system is
not efficient. In this case the braking system
maintains its own efficiency unaltered but without
the advantage of the ABS system.
Drive carefully and contact a Lancia Dealership as
soon as possible.
AIRBAG FAILURE (red)
Turning the key to the MAR-ON position
illuminates the warning light, but it should switch
off after a few seconds.
The warning light switches on constantly (on some
versions, with a message on the display and a
symbol on the display) to indicate an airbag
system fault.

The sealing fluid has an expiry date.
WARNING
Never operate the compressor for
longer than 20 consecutive minutes.
Risk of overheating. The Fix&Go kit is not
suitable for definitive repairs, so the
repaired tyres may only be used temporarily.
WARNING
The bottle contains ethylene glycol. It
contains latex that might cause
allergic reactions. It is harmful if swallowed.
It is irritant for the eyes. May cause a
reaction if inhaled or on contact. Avoid
contact with eyes, skin and clothes. In the
event of contact, wash immediately with
plenty of water. If ingested, do not induce
vomiting. Rinse out your mouth, drink large
quantities of water and seek immediate
medical attention. Keep out of the reach of
children. The product must not be used
by asthmatics. Do not inhale the vapours
during insertion and suction. Call a doctor
immediately if allergic reactions are noted.
Store the spray bottle away from heat
sources. The sealing fluid has an expiry
date.
Replace the bottle if the sealing fluid
has expired. Dispose of the bottle
and the sealant liquid properly. Have
the sealing fluid and the bottle disposed of in
compliance with national and local
regulations.
INFLATION PROCEDURE
WARNING
Wear the protective gloves provided
with the Fix&Go kit.
To carry out the inflation procedure proceed as
follows:
❒engage the handbrake;
❒place the Fix&Go kit close to the tyre to be
repaired;
❒locate the filler pipe fig. 124 already
connected to the spray bottle A;
❒open the side lid E fig. 125 then connect the
spray bottle A to the fitting, following the
direction of the arrow;
❒undo the cap of the tyre valve F and connect the
filling pipe B tightening the relevant ring nut on
the tyre valve;
❒Make sure that the switch G fig. 126 is in position
0(off), then start the engine;

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. 127L0F0305
❒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.
