CAR REFUELLING
PETROL ENGINES
Use only unleaded petrol.
To avoid mistakes, the diameter of the
fuel filler is too small to introduce the
beak of a leaded petrol pump. The
petrol octane rating (RON) must not
be lower than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalyst
leads to harmful exhaust emissions,
thus contributing to air pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol,
even in small amounts or in an emer-
gency, as this would damage the cat-
alyst beyond repair.MULTIJET ENGINES
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. To guarantee the effective
operation of the system, the
sensors must be kept clean at
all times. Be careful not to
scratch or damage the sensors while
cleaning them. Avoid using dry, rough
or hard cloths. Clean the sensors with
clean water with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary. At car wash
centres that use steam or high pres-
sure water jets, clean the sensors
quickly keeping the nozzle more than
10 cm away.
The driver is, however, al-
ways held responsible for
parking and other dangerous ma-
noeuvres. When carrying out this
manoeuvre, ensure that there are no
people, animals or object within the
manoeuvring area. Parking sensors
are designed to assist drivers: in all
cases, you must always pay the ut-
most attention during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres.

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 secures
it to the lid Aso that it cannot be lost.
To open the cap C, turn it anticlock-
wise 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 vehicles com-
pliant with EN590 Euro-
pean 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 accidentally introduce other types
of fuel in the tank, do not start the en-
gine 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 Bto
the most suitable of the allowed posi-
tions.
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. Re-
lease the grip and push downwards
to enable the locking device to click
if the grip has not been released in
one of the possible positions.

Always drive keeping your
hands on the steering wheel
so that the airbag can inflate with-
out obstacles if it is deployed. Do
not drive with your body bent for-
ward. 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 subjected 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 opposite
the chest and keeping a pipe, pen-
cils, etc. between your lips in order
to avoid serious injuries due to de-
ployment of the airbag after a colli-
sion.
WARNING
The front airbag is de-
ployed in the event of colli-
sions having a more severe nature
than those required to activate the
pretensioners. For collisions in the
range between the two activation
thresholds, pretensioner activation
is normal.
WARNING
Turning the ignition key to
MAR, the warning light “
(airbag on passenger’s side enabled)
goes on and flashes for a few sec-
onds, thus reminding the passenger
that the airbag on his/her side will
deploy in the event of a collision. Af-
ter this time, the light goes off.
WARNING
Do not wash the car seats
with water or pressurised
steam (both by hand or at automatic
washing stations).
WARNING
The airbag does not replace
the safety belts, it increases
their effectiveness. Furthermore,
since front airbags are not deployed
after low speed collisions, side colli-
sions, rear-end shunts or roll-overs,
the passengers are only protected by
the seat belts which must be fas-
tened 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 posi-
tion, 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 pretensioners) do not deploy af-
ter a collision. In this case non-de-
ployment 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 en-
gine 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 in-
stance excessive accelera-
tions, 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 warning
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 prolonged crank-
ing to indicate a fault to the
glow plug heating system. Use the car
normally if the engine starts and con-
tact 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 actions
could cause the fuel to flow
into the catalytic converter and dam-
age it beyond repair.
Revving up before stopping
the engine is useless, it
causes unnecessary fuel con-
sumption and can damage
the engine, in particular engines
equipped with turbocharger.
IMPORTANT With engine off, do not
leave the key in the ignition switch on
MAR.
