battery replacement Lancia Ypsilon 2015 Owner handbook (in English)

Incorrect installation of electrical and
electronic devices may cause severe
damage to your car. After purchasing
your car, if you wish to install any accessories
(car alarm, car phone etc.), contact a Lancia
Dealership, which will suggest the most
appropriate devices for your vehicle and will,
most importantly, advise you if a
higher-capacity battery needs to be installed.
Batteries contain substances which are
very dangerous for the environment.
For battery replacement, contact a
Lancia Dealership.
WARNING
If the car will be unused for an
extended period of time in extremely
cold weather conditions, remove the battery
and store it in a heated area to avoid it
freezing.
WARNING
Always wear appropriate goggles
when working on or near the battery.

BRAKES
The car is equipped with 4 mechanical wear
detection systems for brake pads: one for each
wheel assembly.
When the brake linings are about to wear out,
pressing the brake pedal, a light hiss is heard: this
indication lasts around 100 km (depending on
the driving style and the route type).
In these circumstances it is still possible,
proceeding with caution, to carry on driving.
In any case, contact a Lancia Dealership as soon
as possible to have the worn brake pads replaced.
