Top speed
Fuel consumption considerably in-
creases as speed increases. Keep your
speed as even as possible, avoiding
unnecessary braking and acceleration
which cause excessive fuel consump-
tion and increase emissions.
Acceleration
Sudden acceleration has a very nega-
tive effect on consumptions and emis-
sions: accelerate gradually and do not
go over the maximum torque ratio.CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short distances and frequent cold
start-ups will prevent the engine from
reaching optimal running tempera-
ture. Consequently, both consumption
(from +15 to +30% on urban cycle )
and emissions will increase.
Traffic and road conditions
Rather high consumption is caused by
heavy traffic, for instance when trav-
elling in a queue with frequent use of
low gears or in cities with many traf-
fic lights. Mountain and rough roads
also have a negative effect on con-
sumption.
Traffic hold-ups
During prolonged hold-ups (level
crossings) the engine should be
switched off.TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT NOTES
The car must be provided with a
type-approved tow hitch and ade-
quate electric system to tow caravans
or trailers. Installation must be per-
formed by specialised personnel who
will issue the required papers for trav-
elling on roads.
Install any specific and/or additional
rearview mirrors as specified by the
Highway Code.
Remember that when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, the
braking spaces increase and overtak-
ing takes longer depending on the
overall weight.
Engage a low gear when driving
downhill, rather than constantly us-
ing the brake.

as soon as the glow plugs have
reached a predetermined tempera-
ture. Start the engine as soon as the
warning light goes out.
IMPORTANT With hot ambient tem-

WATER IN DIESEL
FUEL FILTER (Multijet
versions - amber)
When the ignition key is
moved to MAR, the warning light
turns on and should go off after a few
seconds.
The warning light cturns on when
there is water in the diesel fuel filter.
The display will show the dedicated
message.
c
The presence of water in the
feeding circuit may cause
severe damage to the injec-
tion system and irregular
engine operation. If warning light c
lights up (on some versions with the
message on the display), go to a
Lancia Dealership as soon as pos-
sible to have the system bled. Water
may have been introduced in the
tank if this appears immediately af-
ter refuelling: in this case, stop the
engine immediately and contact a
Lancia Dealership.

GENERIC INDICATION
(amber)
The warning light turns on
in the following circum-
stances.
Exterior lights failure
The warning light will come on (some
versions only) when a fault to one of
the following lights is detected:
– side/taillights
– brake lights (excluding third brake
light)
– rear fog lights
– direction indicators
– number plate lights.
The fault may be caused by: one or
more burnt lamps, a blow protection
fuse or interruption of the electrical
connection.
The display will show the dedicated
message.
Obstructed particulate trap
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light turns on when the
diesel particulate trap is clogged and
the driving conditions do not enable
to activate automatically the regener-
ation procedure.
è
To allow the regeneration procedure,
keep the car running until the warn-
ing light turns off.
The display will show a dedicated
message.
Engine oil pressure sensor
failure
The warning light turns on when fail-
ure is detected in parking sensors. Go
to a Lancia Dealership as soon as pos-
sible.
Rain/dusk sensor failure
The warning light comes on when a
dusk/rain sensor failure is detected.
Go to a Lancia Dealership as soon as
possible.
The display will show a dedicated
message.
Fuel cut-off switch tripped
The warning light comes on when the
fuel cut-off switch trips.
The display will show a dedicated
message. LANCIA CODE
PROTECTION SYSTEM
FAILURE (amber)
Turning the key to MAR, the
warning light flashes once and then
goes off.
If with the ignition key at MAR, the
warning light stays on, this indicates
a possible failure (see “Lancia Code
system” in section “Dashboard and
controls”).
IMPORTANT The turning on at the
same time of the Uand
Ywarning
lights indicates a failure of the Lancia
CODE system.
If with the engine running the warn-
ing light
Yflashes, this means that
the car is not protected by the engine
immobilizer device (see “Lancia Code
system” in section “Dashboard and
controls”).
Contact Lancia Dealership to have all
the key stored.

BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by push-
ing, towing or driving downhill. This
could cause a flow of fuel into the cat-
alytic converter and damage it beyond
repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the
brake servo and the electric power
steering system are not activated un-
til the engine is started, a greater ef-
fort will therefore be required to press
the brake pedal or turn the steering
wheel.
Indicate that the car is
standing according to the
laws in force: emergency lights, re-
fracting warning triangle, etc. Pas-
sengers should leave the car, partic-
ularly if it is very loaded, and wait
for the wheel to be changed away
from on-coming traffic. Arrange
wedges or other suitable material
under the wheels to block the car on
slopes or rough roads.

Modifications or repairs to
the fuel feed system that
are not carried out properly or do
not take the system’s technical
specifications into account can
cause malfunctions leading to the
risk of fire.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs contain
pressurised gas which, if
broken, may cause small frag-
ments of glass to be projected out-
wards.
WARNING
BULB TYPES fig. 16
Various types of bulbs are fitted to
your car:
A All glass bulb: clipped into place.
Pull to extract.
B Bayonet bulbs: to remove this type
of bulb from its holder, press the
bulb and turn it anticlockwise.
C Cylindrical bulbs: release from the
contacts to extract.
D-E Halogen bulbs: release the fas-
tening clip from the correspond-
ing seat to remove the lamp.
L0D0178mfig. 16
The taillights and the
third brake light fit LEDs.
Contact a Lancia Dealership in
case of faults.
WARNING
IMPORTANT When the weather is cold
or damp or after hard rain or after
washing, the area of headlamps or rear
lights, may steam up and/or form drops
of condensation on the inside. This is a
natural phenomenon due to the differ-
ence in temperature and humidity be-
tween the inside and the outside of the
glass which does not indicate a fault
and does not compromise the normal
operation of lighting devices. The mist
disappears quickly turning the lights
on, starting from the centre of the dif-
fuser, extending progressively towards
the edges.
