PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The devices for reducing petrol engine emissions are the
following:
❍three-way catalytic converter;
❍Lambda sensors;
❍fuel evaporation control system.
In addition, do not let the engine run, even for a test, with
one or more spark plugs disconnected.
The devices for reducing diesel fuel engine emissions are
the following:
❍oxidising catalytic converter;
❍exhaust gas recirculation system (E.G.R.).
❍diesel particulate filter (DPF) (for versions/markets,
where provided).
The catalytic converter reaches high temper-
atures during operation. Do not park on
grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other flam-
mable material: fire risk.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechanical filter, inte-
gral with the exhaust system, that physically traps par-
ticulate present in the exhaust gases of Diesel engines. The
diesel particular filter has been adopted to almost totally
eliminate particulate in compliance with current / future
regulations. During normal use of the car, the engine man-
agement control unit records a set of data (e.g.: travel time,
type of route, temperatures reached, etc.) and it will then
calculate the amount of particulate trapped by the filter.
Since this filter physically traps particulate, it should be
regenerated (cleaned) at regular intervals by burning car-
bon particles. The regeneration procedure is controlled au-
tomatically by the engine management control unit ac-
cording to the filter conditions and car use conditions. Dur-
ing the regeneration procedure, the following situations
may occur: limited increase of idle speed, activation of
electric fan, limited increase of smoke, high temperatures
at the exhaust. These are not faults; they do not impair
car performance or damage the environment. If the ded-
icated warning message is displayed, refer to the section
“Instrument panel warning lights” in this chapter.

Check exhaust fumes/emissions
Check evaporation control system

Replace toothed timing drive belt (*)
Replace spark plugs
Replace air filter cartridge
Change engine oil and oil filter (or every 24 months) (**)
Change brake fluid (or every 2 years)
Change pollen filter (or every 15 months)
(*) Regardless of the km covered, the timing belt should be replaced every 4 years for particularly demanding use (cold climates,
driving in the city, idling for a long time) or in any case every 5 years.
(**) If the car is mainly used in cities or less than 10,000 km a year, change the engine oil and filter every 12 months.
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.

(**) The engine oil and the filter must be changed when the instrument panel warning light comes on (see “Warning lights and
Messages” chapter) and in all cases every 2 years.
If the car is used mainly in towns the engine oil and filter need to be changed every 12 months.

222CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Perform the following inspections more frequently than
shown on the Scheduled Service Plan:
❍check front disc brake pad condition and wear;
❍check cleanness of bonnet and boot locks and linkage
cleanness and lubrication;
❍visually inspect the condition of: engine, gearbox,
transmission, pipes and hoses (exhaust – fuel supply
- brakes) rubber elements (gaiters – hoses - bushes
etc.);❍check battery charge and fluid level (electrolyte); (see
“Battery - Charge and electrolyte level check” in this
chapter);
❍visually inspect the condition of auxiliary drivebelts;
❍check and if necessary replace the pollen filter; in par-
ticular it should be replaced if a decrease in the air flow
into the passenger compartment is detected;
❍check the air filter and replace, if required.

AIR FILTER/ POLLEN FILTER
Have the air filter or pollen filter replaced by a Lancia
Dealership.
DIESEL FUEL FILTER
DRAINING CONDENSED WATER
(Multijet versions) E-fig. 2-3
The presence of water in the feeding circuit
may cause severe damage to the injection sys-
tem and irregular engine operation. If the
warning light
cgoes on, contact a Lancia Dealer-
ship 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.
