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;

CARE AND MAINTENANCE223
5
Exterior plastic parts must be cleaned in the same way
as the rest of the car.
Where possible, do not park under trees; the resinous sub-
stance many species release give the paint a dull appearance
and increase the possibility of triggering rust processes.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be washed off imme-
diately and thoroughly as the acid they contain is partic-
ularly aggressive.
Detergents cause water pollution. The car
should be washed in areas equipped for col-
lecting and purifying the liquid used in the
washing process.
Windows
Use specific window cleaner products.
Use also clean cloths to avoid scratching the glass or dam-
aging the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window inside gently with a
cloth in the direction of the filaments to avoid damaging
the heating device.
Engine compartment
At the end of each winter, thoroughly wash the engine
compartment, taking care to avoid directly hitting with
the water jet the electronic control units and the relay/fuse
control unit on the left side of the engine compartment
(running direction). Have this operation performed at a
specialised workshop.
IMPORTANT Perform this operation on a cold engine and
with the key at STOP. After the washing operation, make
sure that the various protections (e.g. rubber caps and
guards) have not been removed or damaged.
Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g.: petrol)
or ketenes (e.g.: acetone) for cleaning front headlight plas-
tic lens.
To keep intact the aesthetic properties of the
paintwork do not use abrasive and/or pol-
ish products for cleaning the car bodywork.
