ENGINE COOLANT B-fig. 1-2-3
The coolant level must be checked when the engine is cold
and must be between the MIN and MAX lines on the ves-
sel. If the level is low, slowly add a mixture of 50% dis-
tilled water and 50% PARAFLU UP of the PETRONAS
LUBRICANTS Group through the filler neck until the lev-
el reaches MAX. The mixture of 50% PARAFLU UP and
distilled water provides protection from freezing down to
a temperature of –35°C. For particularly harsh environ-
mental conditions use a mixture of 60% PARAFLU UP
and 40% distilled water.Proceed very carefully inside the engine com-
partment 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 garments: they
might get caught by moving components.
Don’t add any oil with different specifications
to those of the existing engine oil.
The exhausted engine oil and the replaced oil
filter contain substances that may be dan-
gerous for the environment. It is advisable
to have oil and filters changed by a Lancia Deal-
ership where they will be disposed of according to
the law.
PARAFLU UP antifreeze is used in the engine
cooling system. Use fluid of the same type
contained in the cooling system for top-ups.
PARAFLU UP may not be mixed with other types
of fluids. If this accidentally occurs, do not start the
engine and contact a Lancia Dealership.
