Thousands of kilometres
Check engine management system operation (via diagnostic socket)
Replace auxiliary drive belt
Replace toothed timing drive belt (*)
Replace fuel filter
Replace air filter cartridge
Change engine oil and oil filter (versions without DPF)(or every 24 months)
Change engine oil and oil filter (versions with DPF)(**)
Change brake fluid (or every 24 months)
Change pollen filter (or every 15 months)
(*) Regardless of the km covered, the timing belt should be replaced every 4 years for particularly demanding use (cold climates,
driving in the city, idling for a long time) or in any case every 5 years.
(**) The engine oil and oil filter should be changed when the warning light on the dashboard comes on (see “Instrument panel warn-
ing lights”) or every 2 years.

REGULAR INSPECTIONS
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys, check and top
up if required:
engine coolant fluid level;
brake fluid level;
windscreen washer fluid level;
tyre pressure and condition;
operation of lights (headlights, direction indicators,
hazard lights, etc.);
operation of the windscreen wiper/washer system, po-
sition and wear of windscreen/rearscreen wiper blades;
Every 3,000 km check the following and top-up, if re-
quired: engine oil level.
You are recommended to use FL Selenia products, de-
signed and produced specifically for Lancia cars (see table
“Capacities” in chapter “6”).
DEMANDING USE OF THE CAR
If you use the vehicle mainly under one of the following
especially heavy conditions:
trailer or caravan towing;
dusty roads;
repetitive short distances (less than 7-8 km) with ex-
ternal temperatures below zero;
frequently idling the engine or long distances at low
speed driving (e.g. door-to-door deliveries) or long term
inactivity;
urban routes;

208CARE AND MAINTENANCE
ENGINE OIL A-fig. 1-2-3
Check the oil level a few minutes (about 5) after the en-
gine has stopped, with the car parked on level ground. The
oil level should be between the MIN and MAX marks on
the dipstick. The range between the MIN and MAX lev-
els corresponds to approximately 1 litre of oil.
If the oil level is near or under the MIN line, add oil
through the filler to reach the MAX line.
The oil level should never exceed the MAX line.Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption is usually 400
grams every 1000 km. When the car is new, the engine
needs to be run in, therefore the engine oil consumption
can only be considered stabilised after the first 5,000 -
6,000 km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption depends on driving
style and the conditions under which the car is used.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing the oil, let the en-
gine turn over for a few seconds and wait a few minutes
after turning it off before you check the level.

ENGINE COOLANT B-fig. 1-2-3
The coolant level must be checked when the engine is cold
and must be between the MIN and MAX lines on the ves-
sel. If the level is low, slowly add a mixture of 50% dis-
tilled water and 50% PARAFLU UP of the FL Selenia
Group through the filler neck until the level reaches MAX.
The mixture of 50% PARAFLU UP and distilled water
provides protection from freezing down to a temperature
of –35°C. For particularly harsh environmental conditions
use a mixture of 60% PARAFLU UP and 40% distilled
water.Proceed very carefully inside the engine com-
partment when the engine is hot: risk of
burns. Remember that the fan may start up
if the engine is hot: risk of injury. Pay attention to
scarves, ties and other loose fitting garments: they
might get caught by moving components.
Don’t add any oil with different specifications
to those of the existing engine oil.
The exhausted engine oil and the replaced oil
filter contain substances that may be dan-
gerous for the environment. It is advisable
to have oil and filters changed by a Lancia Deal-
ership where they will be disposed of according to
the law.
PARAFLU UP antifreeze is used in the engine
cooling system. Use fluid of the same type
contained in the cooling system for top-ups.
PARAFLU UP may not be mixed with other types
of fluids. If this accidentally occurs, do not start the
engine and contact a Lancia Dealership.
