This warning light (or symbol on the display)
comes on when the fuel cut-off system cuts in.
The display will show a dedicated message.
Engine oil pressure sensor failure
This warning light (or symbol on the display) comes on
when a failure is detected in the engine oil pressure sen-
sor. The display will show a dedicated message.
Dusk sensor failure
This warning light (or symbol on the display) comes on
when a failure is detected in the dusk sensor.
Speed limit exceeded
This warning light (amber), or symbol on the display
(red), comes on when the preset speed limit is exceeded
(for Arabic countries the speed limit is set at 120 km/h).
The display will show a dedicated message.
Rain sensor failure
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This warning light (or symbol on the display) comes on
when a fault is detected in the rain sensor.
The display will show a dedicated message.
è
Parking sensor failure
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This warning light (or symbol on the display) comes on
when a fault is detected in the parking sensors.
The display will show a dedicated message.
Tyre pressure monitoring system failure
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This warning light (or symbol on the display) comes on
when a failure is detected in the T.P.M.S. system (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided).
Should one or more wheels be fitted without sensors, the
instrument panel warning light will come on and stay on
until initial conditions are restored.
The display will show a dedicated message.
NOTE If one of the above-mentioned faults occurs,
contact a Lancia Dealership as soon as possible.

TRIP COMPUTER
GENERAL FEATURES
The Trip computer is used to display information on car
operation when the key is turned to MAR. This function
allows you to define two separate trips called “Trip A” and
“Trip B” for monitoring the car’s complete mission (trip)
in a mutually independent manner.
Both functions can be reset (reset - start of new mission).
Trip A can be used to display figures relating to:
– Range
– Distance travelled
– Average fuel consumption
– Instantaneous fuel consumption
– Average speed
– Travel time (driving time).
– Trip A Reset
The Trip B function is used to display information relat-
ing to:
– Distance travelled B
– Average fuel consumption B
– Average speed B
– Travel time B (driving time).
– Trip B ResetNote “Trip B” functions may be excluded (see “Enabling
Trip B”). “Range” and “Instantaneous fuel consumption”
parameters cannot be reset.
Values displayed
Range
Approximately indicates the distance the vehicle can trav-
el with the present amount of fuel in the tank. The message
“- - - -” will appear on the display in the following cases:
– range value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
– car left parked with the engine running for a long time.
IMPORTANT Changes in the range value can be affect-
ed by many factors: driving style (see “Driving style” in
“Starting up and driving”), type of route (motorway, ur-
ban cycle, mountain roads, etc…), conditions of use of the
car (load, tyre pressure, etc.). The above notes should
therefore be taken into consideration when planning a trip.
Distance travelled
This indicates the approximate distance covered from the
start of the new mission.

FUEL FILLER CAP fig. 83
To refuel, press flap A to release it and access the fuel tank
cap. The flap is locked with the central locking on.
Undo cap B which has a device C retaining it to the flap so
it cannot be lost. The hermetic seal may cause a slight in-
crease in pressure in the tank. A suction noise when you
release the cap is therefore entirely normal.
When refuelling, fasten the cap to the device inside the flap
as shown in the diagram.
fig. 83L0E0060m
Do not place naked flames or lit cigarettes
near to the fuel filler: fire risk. Keep your face
away from the fuel filler to avoid breathing
in harmful vapours.
EMERGENCY OPENING OF THE FLAP
In an emergency it is possible to open the flap by pulling
the cord A-fig. 84.
To get to the cord, remove the cover.

170STARTING UP AND DRIVING
To engage reverse gear R from neutral, raise ring A un-
der the knob and at the same time move the gearshift lever
to the left and then forwards.
For the 1.6 Multijet version: To engage reverse R from neu-
tral, raise ring A under the knob and at the same time
move the gearshift lever to the right and then backwards.
IMPORTANT The clutch pedal should only be used to
change gear. Do not drive with you foot resting on the
clutch pedal, even lightly. For versions/markets, where
provided, the electronic clutch control could cut in by in-
terpreting the anomalous driving style as a fault.
Press the clutch pedal fully to change gears
correctly. For this reason, there must be no
obstacles on the floor under the pedals: en-
sure that rubber mats (if any) are correctly posi-
tioned, not interfering with the pedals.
Do not drive with your hand resting on the
gear lever, because this pressure, even if light,
over time can wear out the gearbox inner
components.
REDUCING RUNNING COSTS
Here are some useful tips to save fuel and minimize pol-
luting emissions of CO
2and other pollutants (nitric oxide,
unburnt hydrocarbons, fine dusts etc…).
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out in accordance
with the “Scheduled Service Plan”.
Tyres
Check tyre pressure regularly, at least once every four
weeks: excessively low pressure will increase fuel con-
sumption because rolling resistance will be higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot. Do not travel with
too much luggage stowed in the boot. The weight of the
car (especially when driving in town) and its trim great-
ly affect fuel consumption and stability.
