Operation at low temperatures
If the outside temperature is very low,
the diesel thickens due to the forma-
tion of paraffin clots with consequent
anomalous operation of the fuel sup-
ply system.
In order to avoid these problems, dif-
ferent types of diesel are distributed
according to the season: summer type,
winter type and arctic type (cold,
mountain areas). If refuelling with
diesel fuel whose features are not suit-
able to the temperature of use, it is
advisable to mix TUTELA DIESEL
ART additive in the proportions
shown on the container with the fuel.
Pour the additive into the tank before
the fuel.
When using or parking the car for a
long time in the mountains or cold ar-
eas, it is advisable to refuel using lo-
cally available fuel.
In this case, it is also advisable to keep
the tank over 50% full.FUEL FILLER CAP
The opening of the fuel flap is inter-
locked with the door opening/closing
control. For this reason, if the doors
are locked, in order to refuel, press
buttonD-fig. 122.
The cap C-fig, 121is provided with
a loss prevention device Bwhich se-
cures it to the lid Aso that it cannot
be lost. To open the cap C, turn it an-
ticlockwise and remove it. FILLING THE TANK
To fill the tank completely, top-up
twice after the pump switches off.
Further top-ups could cause faults in
the fuel feeding system.
For diesel engines, use
diesel fuel for motor vehi-
cles compliant with EN590
European specifications
only. The use of other products or
mixtures may damage the engine
beyond repair and consequently
cause lapse of warranty in relation
to the damage caused. If you acci-
dentally introduce other types of fuel
in the tank, do not start the engine
and empty the tank. If the engine has
run also for a very short time, you
will need to have the entire fuel feed
system emptied in addition to the
tank.

peratures, etc.) and it will then calcu-
late the amount of particulates trapped
by the filter. Since this filter physically
traps particulates, it shall be cleaned
(reclaimed) at regular intervals by
burning carbon particles. The regener-
ation procedure is controlled automat-
ically by the engine control unit ac-
cording to the filter conditions and the
conditions of use of the car. During the
regeneration procedure, the following
situations may occur: limited increase
of idle speed, activation of electric fan,
limited increase of smoke, high tem-
peratures at the exhaust. These are not
anomalies; they do not impair car be-
haviour and the environment. If the
dedicated message is displayed, refer to
section “Warning lights and messages”.PROTECTING THE
ENVIRONMENT
The devices for curtailing petrol engine
emissions are the following:
❒three-way catalytic converter;
❒Lambda sensors;
❒fuel evaporation prevention system.
In addition, do not let the engine run,
even for a test, with one or more spark
plugs disconnected.
The devices for curtailing diesel fuel en-
gine emissions are the following:
❒oxidising catalytic converter;
❒exhaust gas recirculation system
(E.G.R.);
❒diesel particulate filter (DPF)
DIESEL PARTICULATE
FILTER (DPF)
(for 1.3 Multijet 90 CV versions)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a me-
chanical filter, integral with the exhaust
system, that physically traps particu-
lates present in the exhaust gases of
Diesel engines. The diesel particulate
filter has been adopted to eliminate al-
most totally particulates in compliance
with current / future law regulations.
During normal use of the car, the en-
gine control unit records a set of data
(e.g.: travel time, type of route, tem- During refuelling, attach the cap to
the device on the inside of the flap, as
shown in the figure.
IMPORTANT The sealing of the tank
may cause light pressuring in the
tank. A little breathing off, while
slackening the cap, is absolutely nor-
mal.
After refuelling, tighten the cap by
turning it clockwise until you hear one
or more clicks. Then turn the key
clockwise and remove it and close the
flap.
Do not place naked flames
or lit cigarettes near to the
fuel filler: fire risk. Keep your face
away from the fuel filler to prevent
breathing in harmful vapours.
WARNING
The catalytic converter de-
velops high temperature
during operation. Do not park on
grass, dry leaves, pine needles or
other flammable material: fire
risk.

S.B.R. system
The car is fitted with a Seat Belt Re-
minder system (S.B.R.), consisting of
a buzzer and a flashing warning light
warns the driver that the seat belt
must be fastened.
The buzzer can be deactivated tem-
porarily (until the next engine stop)
as follows:
❒fasten the driver’s seat belt;
❒turn the ignition key to MAR
❒wait for over 20 seconds and then
release at least one of the seat
belts.
For permanent deactivation, contact
Lancia Dealership.
The S.B.R. system can be re-activated
through the “Setup” menu only (see
paragraph “Seat belts not fastened”
in section “Warning lights and mes-
sages”).ADJUSTING THE
FRONT SEAT BELT HEIGHT
(where provided)
Always adjust the seat belt height to
the passenger’s body. This precaution
may considerably reduce the risk of
injury in the event of a collision.
Correct regulation is obtained when
the belt passes approximately half
way between the shoulder and the
neck.
To adjust, either lift or lower the grip
A-fig. 4of the locking mechanism
and at the same time move the ring B
to the most suitable of the allowed po-
sitions.
Remember that in the
event of a violent collision,
rear seat passengers that do not
wear seat belts both pose a risk for
their safety and also represent a
serious danger for the front seat
passengers.
WARNING
fig. 4L0D0128m
Stop the car to adjust the
seat belt height.
WARNING
After the adjustment, make
sure that the cursor to
which the ring is secured is blocked
in one of the possible positions.
Release the grip and push down-
wards to enable the locking device
to click if the grip has not been re-
leased in one of the possible posi-
tions.

Always drive keeping your
hands on the steering
wheel so that the airbag can inflate
without obstacles if it is deployed.
Do not drive with your body bent
forward. Keep your back straight
against the backrest. If the car is
stolen or an attempt is made to
steal it, or if the car has been sub-
jected to illegal attacks or flooding,
have the airbag system checked by
a Lancia Dealership.
WARNING
Do not travel carrying ob-
jects on your lap or oppo-
site the chest and keeping a pipe,
pencils, etc. between your lips in
order to avoid serious injuries due
to deployment of the airbag after a
collision.
WARNING
The front airbag is de-
ployed in the event of col-
lisions having a more severe nature
than those required to activate the
pretensioners. For collisions in
the range between the two activa-
tion thresholds, pretensioner acti-
vation is normal.
WARNING
Turning the ignition key to
MAR, the warning light “
(airbag on passenger’s side en-
abled) goes on and flashes for a
few seconds, thus reminding the
passenger that the airbag on
his/her side will deploy in the
event of a collision. After this time,
the light goes off.
WARNING
Do not wash the car seats
with water or pressurised
steam (both by hand or at auto-
matic washing stations).
WARNING
The airbag does not re-
place the safety belts, it
increases their effectiveness. Fur-
thermore, since front airbags are
not deployed after low speed colli-
sions, side collisions, rear-end
shunts or roll-overs, the passen-
gers are only protected by the seat
belts which must be fastened at all
times.
WARNING
Do not hook rigid objects
to cloth hangers and to the
support handles.
WARNING
If the ignition key is in
place and in the MAR po-
sition, the airbags are deployed
even with the engine off in the event
of a car crash against another
moving vehicle. For this reason,
children must never sit on the front
seat, even if the car is not moving.
On the other hand, whenever the
key is positioned on STOP, the
safety devices (airbags or preten-
sioners) do not deploy after a col-
lision. In this case non-deployment
of these devices does not indicate a
system malfunction.

STARTING
THE ENGINE
The car is provided with an electronic
engine lock device: refer to “The Lan-
cia CODE system” paragraph in
“Dashboard and controls” if you can-
not start the engine. The engine may
be noisier during the first seconds of
operation, particularly after a long pe-
riod of inactivity. This does not impair
functionality and reliability and is
typical of hydraulic tappets: the dis-
tribution system selected for the petrol
engines of your car in order to limit
the maintenance required.
STARTING PROCEDURE FOR
PETROL VERSIONS
Proceed as follows:
❒ensure that the handbrake is up;
❒put the gear lever into neutral;
❒press the clutch pedal down to the
floor without touching the accel-
erator;
❒turn the ignition to AV Vand re-
lease the key as soon as the engine
starts.If the engine does not start at the first
attempt, return the ignition key to
STOPbefore repeating starting.
If, when the ignition key is on MAR,
the instrument panel warning light
Yremains on together with the
warning light U, turn the key to
STOPand then back to MAR; if the
warning light remains on, try with the
other keys provided with the car.
Is is dangerous to let the
engine run in enclosed
spaces. The engine depletes the
oxygen and discharges carbon
dioxide, carbon monoxide and
other toxic gases.
WARNING
In the first period of use, we
recommend to avoid exces-
sive stress for the car (for
instance excessive acceler-
ations, extended travel at maximum
speed, sudden braking etc.).
With engine off, do not leave
the key in the ignition
switch on MAR to prevent
draining the battery.
If you still cannot start the engine,
perform emergency start (see “Emer-
gency start” in chapter “In an emer-
gency”) and then contact a Lancia
Dealership.
IMPORTANT Never leave the ignition
key to MARwhen the engine is off.

❒turn on; wait for the warning light
Yand
mto turn off (the hot-
ter the engine the shorter the time
it takes to turn off);
❒press the clutch pedal down to the
floor without touching the accel-
erator;
❒turn the ignition key to AV Vas
soon as the warning light
mturns
off. Waiting too long will waste the
work done by the glow plugs. Re-
lease the key as soon as the engine
starts.
IMPORTANT When the engine is
cold, rotating the ignition key to AV V,
the accelerator pedal must be com-
pletely released.
If the engine does not start at the first
attempt, return the ignition key to
STOP before repeating starting.
If, when the ignition key is on MAR,
the instrument panel warning light
Yremains on, turn the key to STOP
and then back to MAR; if the warn-
ing light remains on, try with the
other keys provided with the car.
If you still cannot start the engine,
contact the Lancia Dealership.HOW TO WARM UP THE
ENGINE AFTER IT HAS JUST
STARTED (petrol and Multijet
engines)
Proceed as follows:
❒drive off slowly, letting the engine
turn at medium speed. Do not ac-
celerate abruptly;
❒do not demand maximum perfor-
mance for the first few kilometres.
Wait until the engine coolant
gauge starts moving.Warning light
mwill
blink for 60 seconds after
starting or during pro-
longed cranking to indicate
a fault to the glow plug heating sys-
tem. Use the car normally if the en-
gine starts and contact the Lancia
Dealership as soon as possible.
EMERGENCY START
If the instrument panel warning light
Ystays on steadily, you can perform
emergency start using the code on the
CODE card (see chapter “In an emer-
gency”).
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition to STOPwhile the en-
gine is idling.
IMPORTANT After a taxing drive,
you should allow the engine to “catch
its breath” before turning it off by let-
ting it idle to allow the temperature in
the engine compartment to fall.
Never jump start the engine
by pushing, towing or dri-
ving downhill. These ac-
tions could cause the fuel to
flow into the catalytic converter and
damage it beyond repair.
Revving up before stopping
the engine is useless, it
causes unnecessary fuel
consumption and can dam-
age the engine, in particular engines
equipped with turbocharger.
IMPORTANT With engine off, do not
leave the key in the ignition switch on
MAR.

PARKING THE CAR
Proceed as follows:
❒stop the engine and engage the
handbrake;
❒when on a slope, engage a gear
(engage first gear if the car is
faced uphill or reverse if it is faced
downhill) and leave the wheels
steered.
When parking the car on a steep
slope, it is advisable to also place a
wedge or a rock under the wheels.
PROLONGED parking with a wheel
on the pavement or steered against a
step should be avoided. Do not leave
the ignition key on MARto prevent
draining the battery. Always remove
the key when you leave the car.
HANDBRAKE
The handbrake lever is located be-
tween the two front seats.
Pull the lever upwards to operate the
handbrake.
Four or five notches are normally suf-
ficient to lock the car on flat terrain,
while nine or ten may be necessary on
a steep slope with the car loaded. IMPORTANT If this is not the case,
contact a Lancia Dealership to have
the handbrake adjusted.
When the handbrake lever is pulled
up and the ignition key is on MAR,
the instrument panel warning light
xwill turn on.
Proceed as follows to release the
handbrake:
❒slightly lift the handbrake and
press release button A-fig. 1;
❒keep button Apressed and lower
the lever. Warning light
xwill
turn off.
Press the brake pedal when carrying
out this operation to prevent the car
from moving accidentally.
IMPORTANT If the handbrake lever
tends to reach end of its stroke
(groove on the central console), con-
tact a Lancia Dealership to have the
handbrake adjusted.
