SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance is essential for ensuring long
car life under the best conditions.
This is why Lancia has programmed a series of
checks and maintenance operations every 20,000
km.
It is however important to remember that scheduled
servicing does not completely cover all the car’s
requirements: also in the initial period before
20,000 km service coupon and later, between one
coupon and another, ordinary care is still required
such as for example routine check and topping up
the level of fluids, tyre pressure check, etc...
IMPORTANT The Programmed Maintenance
coupons are specified by the Manufacturer. The
failure to have them carried out may invalidate the
warranty.
Scheduled Servicing is performed by all Lancia
Dealership, at pre-established times.If during each operation, in addition to the ones
programmed, the need arises for further
replacements or repairs, these may be carried out
only with the explicit agreement of the Customer.
IMPORTANT You are advised to contact Lancia
Dealership in the event of any minor operating
faults, without waiting for the next service coupon.
If your car is used frequently for towing, the
interval between one service coupon and the other
must be reduced.

IMPORTANT - Engine oil
Should prevailing use of the car be under one of the
following specially heavy conditions:
❒trailer or caravan towing;
❒dusty roads;
❒short distances (less than 7-8 km) repeated and
with external temperatures below zero;
❒frequently idling engines or long distance low
speed driving (e.g. taxis or door-to-door
deliveries) or in case of a long term inactivity;
replace engine oil more frequently than required on
“Service schedule”.
IMPORTANT - Air cleaner
If the car is used on dusty roads change the air
cleaner more frequently than the indications in the
“Service schedule”.
If in doubt as to how often the engine oil and air
cleaner should be changed according to how you use
the car, contact a Lancia Dealership.IMPORTANT - Pollen filter
If the vehicle is used frequently in dusty or heavily
polluted environments it is advisable to replace the
filtering element more frequently; in particular it
should be replaced if a reduction of the amount of
air admitted to the passenger compartment is noted.
IMPORTANT - Diesel filter
The possibility of topping up with diesel fuel not
complying with EN590 European Norm might
make it necessary to replace the filter more
frequently than indicated in the “Service schedule”.

IMPORTANT - Battery
The charge in the battery should be checked at the
start of winter to limit the risk of electrolyte
freezing.This check should be carried out more frequently if
the car is used mainly for short trips, or if it is fitted
with accessories that permanently absorb electricity
even with the ignition key removed, especially in the
case of after market accessories. If the car is used in
hot climates or particularly harsh conditions it is
wise to check the level of the battery fluid
(electrolyte) more frequently than specified in the
“Service schedule” in this section.

MAINTENANCE
Car maintenance should be entrusted to Lancia Dealership. For routine and minor maintenance
operations you wish to carry out yourself, always make sure you have the proper equipment,
genuine Lancia spare parts and the necessary fluids; do not however carry out these operations if
you have no experience.
Page 304 of 346

BRAKE FLUID
Unscrew cap: check that the fluid level in the reservoir is at
maximum.
Fluid level in the reservoir shall not exceed the MAX mark.
If fluid has to be added, it is suggested to use the brake fluid in table
"Fluids and lubricants" (see chapter "Technical characteristics").
NOTE Clean accurately the tank cap and the surrounding surface.
At plug opening, pay maximum attention in order to prevent any
impurities from entering the tank.
For topping up, always use a funnel with integrated filter with mesh
equal to or lower than 0.12 mm.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs moisture, for this reason, if the car
is mainly used in areas with a high degree of atmospheric humidity,
the fluid should be replaced at more frequent intervals than specified
in the “Service schedule”.

Prevent brake fluid, which is highly corrosive, from coming into contact with painted parts.
Should it happen, immediately wash with water.
Symbolπon the container indicates synthetic brake fluid, distinguishing it
from the mineral kind. Using mineral fluids irreversibly damages the special
braking system rubber seals.
WARNING
Brake fluid is poisonous and highly corrosive. In the event of accidental contact,
wash the parts involved immediately with neutral soap and water, then rinse
thoroughly. Call the doctor immediately if the fluid is swallowed.

If the battery is not fitted with electrolyte level
indicator, the relevant checks must only be carried
out by authorised personnel.
To check the battery charge, slacken the two
fastening screws and open the cover. Check the
battery charge and then reclose the cover, take care
to prevent pinching and short circuits.CHANGING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with a genuine spare
part having the same specifications.
If a battery with different specifications is fitted, the
service intervals given in the “Service schedule” in
this section will no longer be valid. Refer to the
instructions provided by the battery manufacturer.

WARNINGWhen working on the battery or near it, always wear the proper goggles. Batteries contain substances that are very harmful for the environment. You are advised to have
the battery changed at a Lancia Dealership, which is properly equipped for disposing of used
batteries respecting nature and the law.
Incorrect fitting of electrical and electronic accessories can seriously damage the car.
If after buying the car, you want to install electric accessories which require permanent electric
supply (alarm, free-hand phone kit, etc.) contact Lancia Dealership whose qualified personnel, in
addition to suggesting the most suitable devices, will evaluate the overall electric absorption,
checking whether the car’s electric system is capable of withstanding the load required, or whether
it should be integrated with a more powerful battery.
If the car is left inactive for long periods at cold, remove the battery and store it
in a warm place to prevent freezing.
