SNOW TYRES
Use snow tyres of the same size as the normal tyres
provided with the car.
Lancia Dealership will be happy to provide advice
concerning the most suitable type of tyre for the
customer’s requirements.
For the type of tyre to be used, inflation pressures
and the specifications of snow tyres, follow the
instructions given in paragraph “Wheels” in section
“Technical specifications”.
The winter features of these tyres are reduced
considerably when the tread depth is below 4 mm.
In this case, they should be replaced.Due to the snow tyre features, under normal
conditions of use or on long motorway journeys, the
performance of these tyres is lower than that of
normal tyres. It is therefore necessary to limit their
use to the purposes for which they are certified.
IMPORTANT When snow tyres are used with a max
speed index below the one that can be reached by
the car (increased by 5%), place a notice in the
passenger compartment, plainly in the driver’s view
which states the max permissible speed of the snow
tyres (as per EC Directive).
All four tyres should be the same (brand and track)
to ensure greater safety when driving and braking
and better driveability.
Remember that it is inappropriate to change the
direction of rotation of tyres.

SNOW CHAINS
Use of snow chains should be in compliance with
local regulations.
Snow chains should only be applied to the driving
wheels (front wheels). We recommend using
Lineaccessori Lancia snow chains.
Check the tension of the chains after driving some
ten metres.IMPORTANT Snow chains cannot be fitted to the
space-saver spare wheel. So, if a front (drive) wheel
is punctured and chains are needed, a rear wheel
should be fitted to the front of the vehicle and the
spare wheel should be fitted to the rear. This way
with two normal drive wheels, snow chains can be
fitted to them to solve an emergency.
IMPORTANT Tyres 205/50 R16 87V cannot be
fitted with snow chains.
Tyres on which chains can be fitted
185/65 R14 86T
195/60 R15 88TType of snow chains to be used
Snow chains with standard size
with max protrusion beyond the tyre profile of 12 mm.
Keep your speed down when snow chains are fitted. Do not exceed 50 km/h. Avoid potholes,
steps and pavements and avoid also to drive for long distances on roads not covered with snow
to prevent damaging the car and the roadbed.
Refer to the above mentioned table for information on the wheels where snow chains can be fitted.
Follow the prescriptions.

GLOW FLAT TYRE WARNING LIGHT (where provided)
The instrument panel warning light comes on (together with the
dedicated message on the display and the buzzer), when the pressure
of one of more tyres falls below the preset threshold. In this way the
T.P.M.S. system will warn the driver that there is/are tyre/s
dangerously flat (risk of punctured tyre/s).
IMPORTANT If a tyre is punctured, stop immediately to safeguard car
driveability. Avoid sharp braking and steering. Replace immediately
the punctured tyre with the space-saver spare wheel (where provided)
or repair the punctured tyre using the kit provided for the purpose
(see section “In an emergency”) and contact Lancia Dealership as
soon as possible.
