LOW BRAKE FLUID
LEVEL
Turning the ignition key
to MAR, the warning light turns on
but it should go off after a few sec-
onds.

er with the message “LOW BRAKE

INJECTION SYSTEM
FAILURE
(where provided -
JTD versions)
In normal conditions, turning the
ignition key to MAR, the warning
light turns on but it should go off
after a few seconds.
If the warning light stays on or turns
on while travelling together with the
message “ENGINE CONTROL SYS-
TEM FAULT” on the multifunction
display, this indicates that the injec-
tion system is not working perfectly
with possible lack of performance,
poor handling and high consumption.
In these conditions it is possible to
continue driving without however
requiring heavy effort or high speed
from the engine. In any case, contact
a Lancia Dealershipas soon as
possible.
Do not use the car for long periods
at high speed with this warning light
on since this could result in serious
damages especially in case of irregu-
lar operation or misfiring.
Ux
Flashing- indicates the possibility
of damage to the catalyst (see
“EOBD system” in this chapter).
If the warning light flashes, it is
necessary to release the accelerator
pedal to lower the speed of the
engine until the warning light stops
flashing; continue driving at moder-
ate speed, trying to avoid driving
conditions that may cause further
flashing and contact a Lancia
Dealershipas soon as possible.
If, turning the ignition
key to MAR, the Uwarn-
ing light does not turn on
or if it turn on glowing steadily or
flashing when travelling, contact
a Lancia Dealership.

ABS SYSTEM FAILURE
Turning the ignition key
to MAR, the instrument
panel warning light turns on but it
should go off after a few seconds.
When there is failure the warning
light stays on or comes on when
travelling together with message
“ABS SYSTEM FAULT” on the
multifunction display. In this case
the braking system keeps its effec-
tiveness unchanged, but without the
potential offered by the ABS system.
It is however recommended to con-
tact a Lancia Dealershipas soon
as possible.
In the event of instrument panel
warning light failure, the warning
light on the multifunction display
comes on together with message
“ABS INDICATOR FAULT”: con-
tact a Lancia Dealership as soon
as possible.In this case heavy brak-
ing may cause the rear
wheels to lock before
time, with the possibility of skid-
ding, stop the car immediately
and contact a Lancia Dealership.
