WARNING
Whilst towing, remember that as the
assistance of the brake servo and
the electric power assisted steering is not
available, greater force needs to be exerted
on the brake pedal and more effort is
required on the steering wheel. Do not use
flexible cables when towing and avoid jerky
movements. During towing, make sure that
the trailer hitch does not damage any
components it is touching. When towing the
car, it is compulsory to respect specific
highway code regulations relating to the tow
hook and procedures for towing on the
road. Do not start the engine while towing
the car.
WARNING
The front and rear tow hooks should
be used only for emergencies on
the road. You are allowed to tow the vehicle
for short distances using an appropriate
device in accordance with the highway code
(a rigid bar), to move the vehicle on the
road in readiness for towing or transport via
a breakdown vehicle. Tow hooks MUST
NOT be used to tow vehicles off the road or
where there are obstacles and/or for towing
operations using cables or other non-rigid
devices. In compliance with the above
conditions, towing must take place with the
two vehicles (one towing, the other towed)
aligned as much as possible along the same
centre line.

SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is essential in guaranteeing a long
life for the car under the best conditions.
For this reason, Lancia has planned a series of
checks and services at fixed distance intervals and,
for versions/markets, where provided, at fixed
time intervals, as described in the Scheduled
Servicing Plan.
Regardless of the above, it is always necessary to
carefully follow the instructions in the Scheduled
Servicing Plan (e.g. periodically check level of
liquids, tyre pressure, etc.).
Scheduled Servicing is offered by all Lancia
Dealerships according to fixed time or kilometres/
miles intervals. If, during each operation, in
addition to the ones scheduled, the need arises for
further replacements or repairs, these may be
carried out only with your explicit agreement. If
your car is used frequently for towing, the interval
between one service operation and the next should
be reduced.WARNING
The Scheduled Servicing intervals are set out by the
Manufacturer. Failure to comply with the schedule
may invalidate the warranty.
It is advisable to inform a Lancia Dealership of any
small operating irregularities without waiting for
the next service.
For versions equipped with specific fuel supply
and/or trim level (e.g. LPG, Natural Power,
automatic transmission), in addition to what is
described in the following Scheduled Servicing Plan,
refer to the relevant additional items in the
dedicated supplements.
