WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
If when turning the key to
MAR the warning light ¬does not turn on or stays on during
car travel (together with the mes-
sage on the multifunctional dis-
play, where provided), a failure
may have occurred in the restraint
systems. In this case the airbags or
pretensioners may not be deployed
after an impact or, in a minor
number of cases, they may be de-
ployed accidentally. Contact Lan-
cia Dealership immediately to
have the system checked immedi-
ately.
The failure of the warning
light
¬is indicated by the
warning light flashing longer than
the expected 4 seconds“, thus sig-
nalling that the front passenger
airbag is deactivated. In addition,
the airbag system automatically
disables the airbag on the passen-
ger’s side (both front and side
airbags, where provided). In this
case, the warning light
¬does
not necessarily indicate a failure
in the restraining systems. Contact
Lancia Dealership immediately to
have the system checked.
WARNING
WARNING
HOT ENGINE COOLANT
(red)
When the ignition key is
moved to MAR, the warning
light turns on and should go off after
a few seconds.
The warning light turns on when the
engine is overheated.
If the warning light comes on, proceed
as follows:
❒during normal travel: stop the
car, stop the engine and check that
the water level in the vessel is not
under the MINline. If this is the
case, wait for a few minutes for the
engine to cool down. Then, slowly
and carefully open the cap, top-up
with coolant and check that the
level is between the MINandMAX
reference lines on the vessel. Also
check for leakages. Should the
warning light turn on again at the
next start-up, contact Lancia Deal-
ership.
u
❒If the vehicle is used under severe
conditions(e.g. towing of trailers
uphill or fully loaded vehicle): slow
down and stop the car if the warn-
ing light stays on. Stop for 2 or 3
minutes with the engine running
and slightly accelerated to favour
better coolant circulation. Then stop
the engine. Check correct fluid level
as described above.
IMPORTANT Under severe use of the
car, keep the engine on and slightly
accelerated for a few minutes before
switching it off.
The display will show the dedicated
message.
LOW BATTERY
CHARGE (red)
When the ignition key is
moved to MAR, the warning
light turns on and should go out as
soon as the engine is started (with the
engine running at idle speed a brief
delay in going out is allowed). If the
warning light stays on, immediately
contact Lancia Dealership.

ANNUAL
INSPECTION
SCHEDULE
For cars with an annual mileage of
below 20,000 km (for example about
15.000 km) the following yearly in-
spection programme is advised:
❒check tyre conditions/wear and
adjust pressure if required (in-
cluding the spare wheel);
❒check light system operation
(headlights, direction indicators,
hazard lights, boot lights, passen-
ger compartment lights, warning
lights, etc.);
❒wiper and windscreen washer sys-
tem check (adjustment of spray
nozzles/wear on wiper blades)
❒check front disk brake pad condi-
tions and wear;
❒visually inspect the conditions of:
engine, gearbox, transmission,
pipes and hoses (exhaust - fuel
feed - brakes), rubber parts
(boots, sleeves, bushes, etc.);❒check cleanness of bonnet and
boot locks and lever cleanness and
lubrication;
❒check battery charge;
❒visual check on various drive belt
conditions;
❒check and top up, if required, fluid
levels (engine coolant, brake fluid,
windscreen washer fluid, battery
fluid, etc);
❒replace engine oil;
❒replace engine oil filter;
❒replace pollen filter (where pro-
vided).
ADDITIONAL
CHECKS
Every 1,000 km or before long jour-
neys, check and top up if required:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre pressure and conditions.
Every 3,000 km check the following
and top-up, if required: engine oil
level.
You are recommended to use FL Se-
lenia products, designed and pro-
duced specifically for Lancia cars (see
table “Capacities” in section “Techni-
cal specifications”).
IMPORTANT - Engine oil
Should prevailing use of the car be
under one of the following specially
heavy conditions:
❒trailer or caravan towing;
❒dusty roads;
❒short distances (less than 7-8 km)
repeated and with external tem-
peratures below zero;

Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consump-
tion 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 con-
ditions under which the car is used.
IMPORTANT Always top up using
engine oil of the same types as that al-
ready in the engine.ENGINE COOLANT fig. 10
The coolant level must be checked
when the engine is cold and must be
between the MINandMAXlines on
the vessel.
If the level is too low, slowly pour a
mixture of 50% distilled water and of
FL Selenia’s PARAFLU UP into the
filler of the vessel.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU UP
and distilled water gives freeze pro-
tection to –35°C.
IMPORTANT When the engine is very
hot, do not remove the cap of the ves-
sel: risk of burns.
Proceed very carefully in-
side the engine compart-
ment 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 gar-
ments: they could get dragged by
the moving parts.
WARNING
Waste engine oil and oil fil-
ters contain substances
which are dangerous for the
environment. For oil and
filter changing, we recommend con-
tacting a Lancia Dealership.
