INITIAL CHECK
Turning the ignition key to MAR, the multifunction display shows the message “Checking”: the diagnostic
phase of all the electronic systems on the car has started. This lasts few seconds: if no faults are detected, when
the engine has started, the display shows the “Check OK” message.
See section “Warning lights and messages” if faults are found.
Is the
engine
started?YES
If no failures are
present
The “Service schedule” includes vehicle maintenance every 20,000 km (or 12,000 mi) or every year; this is shown automatically,
with the ignition key at MAR, starting from 2,000 km (or 1,240 mi) or 30 days from this deadline and it is shown again every 200
km (or 124 mi) or 3 days. For 1.3 Multijet versions, see “Care and Maintenance” in section “Service schedule to change engine oil
and filter and air cleaner. When a programmed maintenance interval (coupon) is near to come, turning the ignition key to MAR, will
display the message “Service” followed by the number of km, or days to go before car servicing. “Scheduled servicing” message is
displayed in km, miles or days according to the approaching service interval. Contact a Lancia Dealership to carry out any service
operation provided by the “Service schedule” or “Annual inspection plan”, and to reset the display.
If the display shows a failure
message, see details in section
“Warning lights and messages”.

LEVELS
IMPORTANT When topping up
take care not to confuse the
various types of fluids: they are
all incompatible with one
another and could seriously
damage the car.
IMPORTANT Never smoke
while working in the engine
compartment: gas and
inflammable vapours may be
present, with the risk of fire.

ENGINE OIL
Checking engine oil
Check the oil level a few minutes (about 5) after the engine has
stopped, with the car parked on level ground.
Check that the level is within the MIN and MAX marks on the
dipstick. The interval between the MIN and MAX marks corresponds
to about one litre of oil.
Topping up engine oil
If the oil level is near or even below the MIN mark, add oil through
the filler neck, until reaching the MAX mark. Oil level shall never
exceed the MAX mark.
IMPORTANT If a routine check reveals that the oil level is above the
MAX mark, contact Lancia Dealership to have the correct level
restored.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing the oil, let the engine turn
over for a few seconds and wait a few minutes after turning it off
before you check the level.

ENGINE COOLANT FLUID
The coolant level shall be checked with cold engine and shall be
included between the MIN and MAX mark on the reservoir.
If the level is low, pour slowly a mixture of 50% distilled water and
50% FL Selenia PARAFLU UP through the filler neck.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU UP and distilled water gives freeze
protection to –35°C.
IMPORTANT Do not remove the reservoir cap when the engine is hot:
you risk scalding yourself.

To have the oil level checked contact Lancia Dealership only.
WARNING
The cooling system uses PARAFLU UP antifreeze. Do not add fluid having
different specifications from that already existing. PARAFLU UP cannot be mixed
with other types of fluids. Should other fluids be added, do not start the engine
and contact Lancia Dealership as soon as possible.
The cooling system is pressurised. If necessary, replace the cap only with another
genuine one, otherwise system efficiency could be compromised.
