The presence of water in
the feeding circuit may
cause severe damage to the injection
system and irregular engine opera-
tion. If the warning lightcon the
display lights up (on some versions
with the message on the reconfig-
urable multifunctional display), go
to a Lancia Dealership as soon as
possible to have the system bled.
Water may have been introduced in
the tank if this appears immediately
after refuelling: in this case, stop the
engine immediately and contact a
Lancia Dealership.

AND CARE
Using the battery when the
fluid is too low can damage
it irreparably and generate a risk of
explosion.
WARNING
CHANGING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with a
genuine spare part having the same
specifications.
If a battery with different specifica-
tions is fitted, the service intervals
given in the “Service schedule” in this
section will no longer be valid.
Refer therefore to the instructions pro-
vided by the battery manufacturer.Batteries contain substances
that can be very dangerous
for the environment. t is ad-
visable to have the battery
changed by a Lancia Dealership
where it will be disposed of according
to the law.Incorrect assembly of electric
and electronic devices may
cause severe damage to your
car. Go to a Lancia Dealer-
ship if you want to install accessories
(alarms, mobile phone, etc.): they will
suggest the most suitable devices and
advise you if a higher capacity battery
needs to be installed.USEFUL ADVICE FOR
LENGTHENING THE LIFE OF
YOUR BATTERY
To avoid draining your battery and to
lengthen its life, observe the following
indications:
❒when you park your car, ensure
that doors, bonnet and flaps are
well closed in order to ensure that
no lights remain on inside the pas-
senger compartment;
❒switch off all lights inside the car:
the car is however equipped with
a system which switches all inter-
nal lights off automatically;
❒when the engine is off, do not keep
devices running for long periods
(e.g. sound system, hazard lights
etc.);
❒before performing any operation
on the electrical system, discon-
nect the battery negative terminal
cable;
❒screw the terminals of the battery
down hard.
If the vehicle must remain
unused for a long time at
very low temperatures, remove the
battery and carry it to a warm place,
to avoid freezing.
WARNING
When performing any oper-
ations on the battery or near
it, always protect your eyes with the
special goggles.

MAINTENANCE
AND CARE
To correctly wash the car:
❒remove the aerial from the roof to
prevent damage to it if the car is
washed in an automatic system;
❒wash the body using a low pres-
sure jet of water;
❒wipe a sponge with a slightly
soapy solution over the bodywork,
frequently rinsing the sponge;
❒rinse well with water and dry with
a jet of air or a chamois leather.
Dry the less visible parts particularly
carefully, such as the door frames,
bonnet and the headlight frames,
where water may stagnate more eas-
ily. It is a good idea to leave the car in
the open for a while after washing it
to give time for the water to evapo-
rate.
Do not wash the car after it has been
parked in the sun or when the engine
is bonnet is hot: this can alter the
gloss of the paint.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 substance many
species release give the paint a dull
appearance and increase the possibil-
ity of triggering rust processes.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be
washed off immediately and thor-
oughly as the acid they contain is par-
ticularly aggressive.Windows
Use specific window cleaner products.
Use also clean cloths to avoid scratch-
ing the glass or damaging the trans-
parency.
IMPORTANT The inside of the rear
window should be wiped gently with
a cloth in the direction of the fila-
ments to avoid damaging the heating
device.
Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic
substances (e.g.: petrol) or ketenes
(e.g.: acetone) for cleaning front
headlight plastic lens.Detergents cause water pol-
lution. The car should be
washed in areas equipped for
collecting and purifying the
liquid used in the washing process.

Engine compartment
At the end of the winter the engine
compartment should be carefully
washed, without directing the jet
against electronic control units. Have
this operation performed at a spe-
cialised 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.
Never use flammable prod-
ucts, such as petrol ether or
rectified petrol to clean inside the
car. The electrostatic charges which
are generated by rubbing during the
cleaning operation may cause a fire.
WARNINGINTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not
trapped under the mats (due to water
dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.)
which could cause oxidisation of the
sheet metal.
CLEANING SEATS AND FABRIC
PA R T S
Remove dust with a soft brush or a
vacuum cleaner. It is advisable to use
a moist brush on velvet upholstery.
Rub the seats with a sponge moist-
ened with a solution of water and
neutral detergent.
INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior parts
with a moist cloth and a solution of
water and mild soap. Use specific
products for cleaning plastic, without
solvents and specifically designed to
prevent damage to the appearance
and colour of the treated parts to re-
move grease and tough stains.
IMPORTANT Never use spirit or
petroL to clean the glass of the in-
strument panel or other plastic parts.
