RUBBER HOSES
As far as the brake system and fuel rubber hoses are
concerned, carefully follow the “Service schedule”
in this section.
Indeed ozone, high temperatures and prolonged
lack of fluid in the system may cause hardening and
cracking of the hoses, with possible leaks. Careful
control is therefore necessary.
WINDSCREEN/
REAR WINDOW WIPERS
BLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part using special
products; TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 is
recommended.
If the rubber blades are bent or worn they should be
replaced. In any case they should be changed once a
year.
A few simple notions can reduce the possibility of
damage to the blades:
❒if the temperature fall below zero, make sure
that ice has not frozen the rubber against glass.
If necessary, thaw using an antifreeze product;
❒remove any snow from the glass: in addition to
protecting the blades, this prevents effort on the
motor and overheating;
❒do not operate the windscreen and rear window
wipers on dry glass.

WARNINGDriving with worn wiper blades is a serious hazard, because visibility is reduced
in bad weather.

Changing the windscreen wiper blades
Proceed as follows:
❒raise the windscreen wiper arm A and position the blade so that it
forms an angle of 90° with the arm;
❒press tab B of the coupling spring and remove the blade to be
replaced from the arm A;
❒fit the new blade by inserting the tab into the special slot in the
arm. Make sure it is properly locked into place.
Changing the rear window blade
Proceed as follows:
❒raise the cover A and remove the arm from the car, slackening the
nut B that fastens it to the pivot pin;
❒fit the new arm, positioning it correctly, and fully tighten the nut;
❒lower the cover.

SPRAY NOZZLES
Windscreen wiper
If the jet of fluid is inadequate, firstly check that there is fluid in the
reservoir: see “Checking fluid levels” in this section).
Then check that the nozzle holes are not clogged, if necessary use a
needle.
Windscreen nozzles are fluid-dynamic and do not require adjustment;
windscreen fluid is atomized to cover a preset glass area.
Rear window wiper
The rear window nozzle like the windscreen nozzle is fluid-dynamic
and do not require adjustment; rear window fluid is atomized to cover
a preset glass area.
The nozzle holder is located at the top of the tailgate.

BODYWORK
PROTECTION FROM ATMOSPHERIC AGENTS
The main causes of corrosion are the following:
❒atmospheric pollution;
❒salty air and humidity (coastal areas, or hot
humid climates);
❒seasonal environment conditions.
Not to be underestimated is also the abrasive action
of wind-borne atmospheric dust and sand and mud
and gravel raised by other vehicles.
Lancia implemented the best manufacturing
technologies to effectively protect the bodywork
against corrosion.These include:
❒Painting products and systems which give the
car particular resistance to corrosion and
abrasion;
❒Use of galvanised (or pretreated) steel sheets,
with high resistance to corrosion;
❒Spraying of plastic parts, with a protective
function, in the more exposed points: underdoor,
inner fender parts, edges, etc.;
❒Use of “open” boxed sections to prevent
condensation and pockets of moisture from
triggering rust inside.
BODY AND UNDERBODY
WARRANTY
Your Lancia Idea is covered by warranty against
perforation due to rust of any original element of
the structure or body. For the general terms of this
warranty, refer to “Warranty Booklet”.

ADVICE FOR PRESERVING THE BODYWORK
Paint
Paintwork does not only serve an aestethic purpose,
but also protects the underlying sheet metal.
In the case of deep scrapes or scores, you are
advised to have the necessary touching up carried
out immediately to avoid the formation of rust. Use
only original paint products for touching up (see
“Bodywork paint identification plate” in section
“Technical specification”).
Normal paint maintenance consists in washing at
intervals depending on the conditions and
environment of use. For example, in highly polluted
areas, or if the roads are sprayed with salt, it is wise
to wash the car more frequently.
To correctly wash the car:
❒remove the aerial from the roof to prevent
damage to it if the car is washed in an automatic
system;
❒wash the body using a low pressure jet of water;
❒wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy solution over
the bodywork, frequently rinsing with the
sponge;
❒rinse well with water and dry with a jet of air or
a chamois leather.
When drying, take particular care with the less
visible parts like door surrounds, bonnet and
around the headlights where water may stagnate.
The car should not be taken to a closed area
immediately, but left in the open so that residual
water can evaporate.
Do not wash the car after it has been left in the sun
or with the bonnet hot: this may alter the shine of
the paintwork.
Exterior plastic parts must be cleaned in the same
way as the rest of the vehicle.
Where possible, do not park under trees; the
resinous substance many species release give the
paint a dull appearance and increase the possibility
of triggering rust processes.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be washed off
immediately and thoroughly as the acid they
contain is particularly aggressive.
Detergents cause water pollution. Therefore the car should be washed in areas equipped for
collecting and purifying the liquid used in the washing process.

Windows
Use specific window cleaner products. Use also
clean cloths to avoid scratching the glass or
damaging the transparency.
IMPORTANT The inside of the rearscreen should be
wiped gently with a cloth in the direction of the
filaments to avoid damaging the heating device.
Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g.:
petrol) or ketones (e.g.: acetone) for cleaning front
headlight plastic lens.Engine compartment
At the end of the winter the engine compartment
should be carefully washed, without directing the jet
against electronic control units. Contact a
specialised workshop to have this done.
IMPORTANT Washing should be carried out with
the engine cold and the ignition key at STOP. After
washing make sure that the various protections
(e.g.: rubber caps and various covers) have not been
damaged or removed.
Never use flammable products like oil ether or rectified petrol for cleaning car
interiors. Electrostatic discharges generated by rubbing during cleaning
operations could cause fire.

INTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not trapped under
the mats (due to water dripping off shoes,
umbrellas, etc.) which could cause oxidisation of the
sheet metal.
CLEANING SEATS AND FABRIC AND VELVET
PA R T S
Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to remove dust.
Velvet is cleaned better if the brush is moistened.
Rub the seats with a sponge moistened with a
solution of water and neutral detergent.
INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS
For routine cleaning, wipe with a cloth with water
and neutral non-abrasive detergent. Remove grease
or persistent stains with appropriate products
designed to preserve the appearance of components.
IMPORTANT Never use spirit or petroleum to clean
the instrument panel or other plastic parts.STEERING WHEEL/GEAR LEVER KNOB
WITH GENUINE LEATHER COVERING
These components shall only be cleaned with water
and neutral soap. Never use spirit or alcohol-based
products.
Before using special products for cleaning interiors,
read carefully label instructions and indications to
make sure they are free from spirit and/or alcohol-
based substances.
If when cleaning the windscreen with special glass
products, some drops fall on the leather covering of
the steering wheel/gear lever knob remove them
immediately and then clean with water and neutral
soap.
IMPORTANT Take the utmost care when engaging
the steering lock to prevent scratching the leather
covering.
Do not keep aerosol cans in the car: they might explode. Aerosol cans must never
be exposed to a temperature above 50°C. The temperature inside the car exposed
to the sun may go well beyond that figure.
