Degraded engine oil should be replaced as
soon as possible after the warning light
comes on, and never more than 500 km af-
ter it first comes on. Failure to observe the above
may result in severe damage to the engine and in-
validate the warranty. Please note also that the
switching on of this warning light does not depend
on the oil quantity in the engine; when the warn-
ing light flashes, never add oil.

“Dualdrive” electric power steering
failure (red)
This warning light switches on when the igni-
tion key is turned to MAR, but it should switch
off after a few seconds.
If the warning light (or symbol on the display) remains on,
you will not have steering assistance and the effort re-
quired to operate the steering wheel will be increased;
steering is, however, possible. In this case, go to a Lancia
Dealership. The display will show a dedicated message.

“Dualdrive” electric steering engagement
The warning light switches on (or the word
“CITY” appears on the display) when the
“Dual drive” electric power steering system is
activated by pressing the relevant control button. Press
the button again to turn the “CITY” wording off.
CITY
2. Degraded engine oil
(only Multijet versions with DPF)
The warning light will turn on flashing together with the
message on the display (for versions/markets where pro-
vided). Depending on the versions, the warning light
flashing modes are as follows:
– one minute every two hours;
– for three minute cycles with the warning light off for
intervals of five seconds until oil is changed.
After the first indication, at each engine start up the
warning light will continue flashing as above described
until the oil is changed. For those versions/markets where
provided, the display shows a dedicated message together
with the warning light.
The flashing of the warning light should not be consid-
ered as fault, it simply informs the customer that the oil
needs to be changed following normal car use.
Remember that the deterioration of the engine oil is ac-
celerated by:
– mainly town use of the car which makes the DPF re-
generation process more frequent
– use of the car for short journeys, preventing the engine
from reaching operating temperature
– repeated interruption of the regeneration process, sig-
nalled by the DPF warning light coming on.

DST SYSTEM
(Dynamic Steering Torque)
This system is incorporated with the ESP control unit
and suggests steering corrections whilst driving via the
electric power steering. The system applies a torque to
the steering wheel which increases the safety perception
of the vehicle, maintaining control of the steering and
making the intervention of the Advanced ESP system
less intrusive.
Fault signalling
In the event of any operating fault, the system switches
off automatically and the èwarning light is lit up on the
display together with a dedicated message. In this case,
go to a Lancia Dealership
SPORT FUNCTION
(for versions/markets where provided)
The vehicle may be equipped with a system that allows
a choice between two styles of driving, normal and sports.
Pressing the SPORT button fig. 69 produces sporty dri-
ving featuring higher acceleration response and more ef-
fort required on the steering wheel to produce this effect.
When the function is active, “S” is lit up in the instru-
ment panel. Press the button again to turn the function
off and restore the normal driving setting.

IMPORTANT The function is activated about 5 seconds
after the SPORT button is pressed.
IMPORTANT The steering may become stiffer during
parking manoeuvres including a great deal of steering.
This is normal and caused by the system preventing the
electric control motor overheating. No repairs are needed.
The power steering system will start working normally
again the next time the car is used.Under no circumstances should aftermarket
operations be carried out involving steering
system or steering column modifications
(e.g. installation of anti-theft device). This could
negatively affect performance and safety, invali-
date the warranty, cause serious safety problems
and also result in vehicle non-compliance with
type-approval requirements.
Before servicing the car, switch off the engine
and remove the key from the ignition device
to activate the steering lock. This is espe-
cially important when the car wheels are not touch-
ing the ground. If this is not possible (e.g. if the key
must be kept in the MAR position or the engine must
be kept running), remove the electric power steering
system main fuse.On some versions, with the CITY function
activated, the SPORT function is not avail-
able. To activate the SPORT function, deactivate
the CITY function and vice versa, because they are
reciprocally incompatible.

122KNOWING YOUR CAR
EOBD SYSTEM
The EOBD system (European On Board Diagnosis) car-
ries out a continuous diagnosis of the components of the
car related to emissions. It also alerts the driver, by turn-
ing on the
Uwarning light in the instrument panel to-
gether with a message in the reconfigurable multifunc-
tion display, when these components are no longer in
peak condition (see “Instrument panel warning lights”
chapter).
The goal of the system is to:
❍to keep system efficiency under control;
❍to signal a fault which causes emission levels to in-
crease;
❍to signal the need to replace deteriorated components.
The system also has a diagnosis connector that can be in-
terfaced to suitable instruments, to read the error codes
stored in the control unit together with a series of specific
parameters for engine operation and diagnosis.
This check can also be carried out by traffic control au-
thorities.
IMPORTANT After eliminating the problem, to check the
system completely, Lancia Dealerships run a bench test
and, if necessary, road tests which may also call for a long
journey.
Go to a Lancia Dealership as soon as pos-
sible if warning light
Ueither does not light
up when the key is turned to MAR–ON or if,
while travelling, the warning light comes on either
steadily or flashing (along with a message in the
reconfigurable multifunction display). The oper-
ation of the warning light
Umay be checked by the
traffic control authorities using specific devices.
Always comply with the traffic regulations in force
in the country where you are driving.
“DUALDRIVE” ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING SYSTEM
THIS is an electrically controlled power steering system
called “Dualdrive”. It is only operational with the igni-
tion key turned to MAR–ON and the engine running; it
can be customised by the driver according to the driving
conditions.
IMPORTANT When turning the ignition key quickly,
complete power steering functionality may be achieved
after 1-2 seconds.
