SNOW TYRES
Use snow tyres of the same size as the
normal tyres provided with the car.
Lancia Dealership will be happy to
provide advice concerning the most
suitable type of tyre for the customer’s
requirements.
For the type of tyre to be used, infla-
tion pressures and the specifications
of snow tyres, follow the instructions
given in paragraph “Wheels” in sec-
tion “Technical specifications”.
The performance of these tyres is con-
siderably reduced when the tread
depth is less than 4 mm. Replace
them in this case.Due to their specific features, the per-
formance of snow tyres is much lower
than that of normal types in normal
conditions or long motorway
stretches. Limit performance accord-
ing the use for which they were ap-
proved.
IMPORTANT When snow tyres are
used with a max speed index below
the one that can be reached by the car
(increased by 5%), place a notice in
the passenger’s compartment, plainly
in the driver’s view which states the
max permissible speed of the snow
tyres (as per EC Directive).
All four tyres should be the same
(brand and track) to ensure greater
safety when driving and braking and
better driveability.
Remember that it is inappropriate to
change the direction of rotation of
tyres.The top speed of a “T”
type snow tyre is 190
km/h. Respect the highway code in
all cases.

IN AN
EMERGENCY
The spare wheel is specific
for your car. Do not use it
on cars of different models. Do not
use spare wheels of different mod-
els on your car. The space saver
spare wheel must only be used in
case of emergency. Use only for as
long as strictly necessary and drive
at a speed slower than
80 km/h. An orange label is affixed
on the spare wheel summarising
instructions and limitations for
use. Never remove or cover the la-
bel. Never apply a wheel cup on a
space saver spare. The following
information is provided in four
languages on the label: Warning!
Suitable for temporary use only!
80 km/h max! Replace with a
standard wheel as soon as possi-
ble. Do not cover this label.
WARNING
The driving features of the
car may change when a
space saver spare wheel is fitted.
Avoid sudden acceleration and
braking, sudden steering and fast
cornering. The total life of a space
saver spare wheel is approxi-
mately 3000 km, after which it
must be replaced by another wheel
of the same type. Never install a
traditional tyre on a space saver
spare wheel rim. Repair and refit
the standard wheel as soon as pos-
sible. Only one space saver spare
can be used at a time. Do not ap-
ply grease to the bolt threading be-
fore assembly: the bolts could come
loose unexpectedly.
WARNING
The jack may only be used
to replace wheels on the
car which it equips or other cars of
the same model. Never use the jack
for other purposes, such as lifting
other car models. Never use the
jack to carry out repairs under the
car. Incorrect positioning of the
jack may cause the car to fall. Do
not use the jack for loads higher
than those shown on the label.
Snow chains cannot be fitted on a
space saver spare wheel. There-
fore, if a front wheel (drive wheel)
is punctured and you need to use
snow chains, swap with a rear
wheel. In this way, you will have
two normal wheels on the front on
which you can fit snow chains and
solve the emergency.
