For 1.4 Turbo Jet versions, in order to guarantee correct operation and prevent serious damage to the engine, it is essential to ob-
serve the following:
- only use spark plugs specifically certified for Turbo Jet engines; all spark plugs should be of the same type and brand (see the “En-
gine” paragraph);
- carefully observe the spark plug replacement intervals detailed in the Scheduled Service Plan;
- it is advisable to have this performed at a Lancia Dealership.

232CARE AND MAINTENANCE
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.
When you must perform any operation on the
battery or near it, always protect your eyes
with special goggles.
Incorrect assembly of electric and electronic
devices may cause severe damage to your car.
Go to a Lancia Dealership if you want to in-
stall accessories (alarms, mobile phone, etc.): they
will suggest the most suitable devices and advise
you if a higher capacity battery needs to be in-
stalled.
Batteries contain substances that can be very
dangerous for the environment. It is advis-
able to have the battery changed by a Lancia
Dealership where it will be disposed of according
to the law.
