This function can only be displayed
after Lancia Dealership has deacti-
vated the S.B.R. system (see para-
graph “S.B.R. system” in section
“Safety devices”).The indications will appear more fre-
quently when there are 200 km left.

instructions provided in the “Sched-
uled Servicing Plan” in section “Car
Maintenance” for air filter, engine oil
and engine oil filter replacement. The
indication will appear in kilometres or
miles according to the unit settings.
When the next scheduled servicing is
near, the message “Service” will ap-
pear on the display followed by the
number of kilometres or miles or days
left before servicing when the key is
turned to MAR. The “Scheduled Ser-
vicing” message shows information in
either kilometres (km) or miles (mi)
or in days (dd) depending on the
deadline showing up first. Go to the
Lancia Dealership where the servic-
ing operations envisaged in the
“Scheduled Service Plan” or “Yearly
Inspection Plan” will be performed
and the message will be reset. Scheduled Servicing (Service)
This function enables viewing of in-
formation on proper car servicing de-
pending on the kilometres travelled or
daily intervals.
This information is consulted as fol-
lows:
– briefly press button MODE: the dis-
play shows service requirements in
km or mi according to the previous
setting (see paragraph “Distance
unit”);
– press button +or–to view the ser-
vice interval in days;

NOTE According to the “Scheduled
Servicing Plan” the car must be ser-
viced every 20,000 km (or equivalent
mileage) or on a yearly basis. This
message appears automatically when
the key is positioned on MARafter
travelling for 2,000 km (or equivalent
mileage) or 30 days after the dead-
line. It appears every 200 km (or
equivalent mileage) or 3 days.

ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC
DEVICE INSTALLATION
The electric/electronic devices in-
stalled subsequent to the purchase of
the car and included in the after-sales
service must be marked:
Fiat Auto S.p.A. authorises the in-
stallation of transceiver devices on
condition that such installations are
carried out in a workmanlike fashion,
following the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions, at a specialised centre.
IMPORTANT Traffic police may not
allow the car on the road in the event
of assembly of devices which imply
modifications to the features of the
car. This may also cause lapse of war-
ranty in relation to faults caused by
the change or either directly or indi-
rectly related to it.
Fiat Auto S.p.A. shall not be liable for
damage caused by the installation of
accessories either not supplied or rec-
ommended by Fiat Auto S.p.A.
and/or installed in compliance with
the provided instructions.“DUALDRIVE”
ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING SYSTEM
The car is provided with the electri-
cally controlled power steering system
called “Dualdrive” working only with
ignition key at MARand engine run-
ning, that can be customised by the
driver according to the driving condi-
tions.
ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION
(CITY function)
To enable/disable the function, press
the button fig. 119located on the
central area of the instrument dash-
board.
The enabling of the function is sig-
nalled by the displaying of the word
CITY on the multifunctional display.
With CITY function on, wheel effort
is lighter, easing parking manoeuvres:
The function is particularly helpful
while driving in city centres. TRANSCEIVERS AND MOBILE
PHONES
Radio transceiver equipment (e.g.: e-
tacs mobile phones, HAM radio sys-
tems and the like) shall not be used
inside the car unless a separate aerial
is mounted on the roof.
The use of similar devices inside the
passenger compartment (without sep-
arate aerial) produces radio-frequency
electromagnetic fields which, ampli-
fied by the resonance effects inside the
passenger compartment, may cause
electrical systems equipping the car to
malfunction. This could compromise
safety in addition to constituting a po-
tential hazard for the passengers.
In addition, transmission and recep-
tion of these devices may be affected
by the shielding effect of the car body.
As concerns EC-approved mobile
phones (GSM, GPRS, UMTS), strictly
comply with the instructions for use
provided by the mobile phone’s man-
ufacturer.

CONTAINING
RUNNING COSTS
Here are some suggestions which may
help you to keep the running costs of
your car down and lower the amount
of toxic emissions released into the at-
mosphere.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried
out in accordance with the “Service
schedule”.
Tyres
Check tyre pressure regularly at least
once every four weeks: excessively low
pressure will increase consumption
because rolling resistance will be
higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded
boot. The weight of the car (especially
when driving in town) and its trim
greatly affect consumption and sta-
bility.Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack
from the roof after use. These acces-
sories decrease aerodynamic penetra-
tion of the car and have a negative ef-
fect on consumption. It is better to use
a trailer to transport particularly
bulky objects.
Electric devices
Use electric devices only for the
amount of time needed. Rear heated
window, additional headlights, wind-
screen wipers and heater fan need a
considerable amount of energy, there-
fore increasing the requirement of
current increases fuel consumption
(up to +25% in the urban cycle).
Climate control
The climate control system requires
higher fuel consumption (up to +20%
in average): use the air vents when the
external temperature allows to.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified aerodynamic
items may adversely affect air drag
and consumption levels.DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine up with the
car standing: the engine warms up
very slowly in these conditions, in-
creasing consumption and emissions.
It is advisable to start off immediately
and slowly keeping the engine speed
down: the engine will warm up much
faster this way.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving up when starting at
traffic lights or before stopping the
engine. The latter action, like dou-
bling the clutch, is unnecessary and
causes increase of consumption and
pollution.
Gear selection
Use a higher gear as soon as traffic
and road conditions allow. Using a
low gear for faster acceleration will in-
crease consumption.
In the same way improper use of a
high gear increases consumption,
emissions an engine wear.

SCHEDULED
SERVICING
Correct maintenance is essential for
ensuring long car life under the best
conditions.
This is why Lancia has planned a se-
ries of checks and maintenance oper-
ations every 20,000 km.
Scheduled servicing will not however
fully cover all of the needs of your car:
also in the initial period before the
20,000 km service coupon and later,
between one coupon and another, or-
dinary care is still required such as for
example routine check and topping
up the level of fluids, tyre pressure
check, etc. IMPORTANT The Scheduled Service
coupons are required by the Manu-
facturer. Default may invalidate the
warranty.
Scheduled Servicing is performed by
all Lancia Dealerships at set times. If during each operation, in addition
to the ones programmed, the need
arises for further replacements or re-
pairs, these may be carried out only
with the explicit agreement of the
Customer.
IMPORTANT You are advised to con-
tact a Lancia Dealership in the event
of any minor operating faults, with-
out waiting for the next service
coupon.
If your car is used frequently for tow-
ing, the interval between one service
coupon and the other must be re-
duced.
