2011 Lancia Ypsilon technical specifications

Incorrect installation of electrical and
electronic devices may cause severe
damage to your car. After purchasing
your car, if you wish to install any accessories
(car alarm, car phone etc.), contact a Lancia
Dealership, which will suggest the most
appropriate devices for your vehicle and will,
most importantly, advise you if a
higher-capacity battery needs to be installed.Batteries contain substances which are
very dangerous for the environment.
For battery replacement, contact a
Lancia Dealership.
WARNING
If the car will be unused for an
extended period of
time in extremely
cold weather conditions, remove the battery
and store it in a heated area to avoid it
freezing.
WARNING
Always wear appropriate goggles
when working on
or near the battery.
WHEELS AND TYRESBefore long trips, and every two weeks, check the
tyre and space-saver wheel inflation pressure
(for versions/markets, where provided). Check the
tyres when cold.
While driving the car, the pressure increases under
standard conditions: for the correct tyre inflation
pressure, see "Wheels" paragraph in the
"Technical specifications" chapter.
Incorrect pressure causes abnormal tyre wear fig.
161:
A normal pressure: tread evenly worn;
B low pressure: tread particularly worn at the
edges;
C high pressure: tread particularly worn in the
centre.

Servicing PlanFor diesel engines, in the event of an emergency in which the original products are not available,
lubricants with at least ACEA C2 performance are acceptable. In this case optimum engine performance
is not guaranteed and the lubricants should be replaced with recommended products as soon as
possible at a Lancia Dealership.
The use of products with features lower than ACEA C3 for petrol engines and ACEA C2 for diesel
engines, could cause engine damage not covered by the warranty.
For 0.9 TwinAir 85 HP versions, the use of lubricants with specifications below ACEA C3 and SAE
grade other than 5W-40 could cause damage to the engine not covered by the warranty.
