ENGINE COOLANT FLUID HIGH TEMPERATURE
Turning the ignition key to MAR the warning light on the dial turns
on, but it should go off after few seconds.
The warning light turns on (together with the message on the display)
when the engine is overheated. If the warning light comes on when
driving, proceed as follows:
❒normal driving conditions: stop the car, switch off the engine and
check whether the water level in the reservoir is not below the MIN
mark. Otherwise wait for few seconds to allow engine cooling, then
open slowly and carefully the cap, top up coolant and check
whether its level is falling between MIN and MAX marks in the
reservoir. Check visually any leak. If when restarting the warning
light comes on again, contact a Lancia Dealership;

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.

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.
