2011 Lancia Ypsilon display

The car can be stopped during the manoeuvre
and, whilst remaining stationary, reverse gear can
temporarily be released (for example, to allow a
pedestrian to pass through the area of the
manoeuvre).
The speed should be less than about 7 km/h
during the manoeuvre, otherwise the parking
manoeuvre will be interrupted.
If the driver carries out a voluntary or involuntary
action on the steering during the parking
manoeuvre (touching it or preventing its
movement), the manoeuvre will be interrupted.
If the road surface is very uneven or there are
obstacles under the wheels affecting the movement
of the car, preventing it from continuing along
the correct trajectory, the manoeuvre may be
interrupted.
End of manoeuvre
If the size of parking space permits, the parking
manoeuvre may be performed in one manoeuvre.
When the reverse gear is disengaged the wheels
will be realigned and the manoeuvre will be
considered completed (the system will
consequently be deactivated).
If the size of the parking space is smaller, it may
take several manoeuvres: the driver will be
advised to complete the parking manoeuvre
manually via a dedicated message in the
instrument panel display.
WARNING
If you wish to stop the steering wheel
with your hands
during a manoeuvre,
it is advisable to handle it firmly on the
outer rim. Do not try and keep your hands
on the inside or hold the spokes.
GENERAL WARNINGS
❒The ultimate responsibility when parking,
however, always rests with the driver. During
these manoeuvres, always make sure that no
people, animals or objects are within the
manoeuvring area. The Magic Parking system
(like parking sensors) is designed to assist
drivers: in all cases, you must always pay the
utmost attention during potentially dangerous
manoeuvres, even when these are carried out
a low speed:
❒If the sensors undergo shocks influencing their
position, the system operation could be strongly
degraded.

IMPORTANT Correct system operation is not
guaranteed if snow chains or emergency wheels
are fitted.
IMPORTANT The correct positioning of the car
inside the parking space detected by the system
depends on various factors, in particular the
circumference of the wheels. For example,
if wheels with a 14" diameter are fitted, the
position of the car inside the parking area could
be slightly different.

S.B.R. SYSTEM (Seat Belt Reminder)This system consists of a device which, in
conjunction with the
warning light flashing on
the instrument panel and an intermittent acoustic
signal, warns the driver and front passenger if
their seat belts have not been fastened.
On some versions there is also a panel (provided
as an alternative to the warning light on the
instrument panel) located above the rear-view
mirror fig. 93 which warns the front and back seat
passengers via acoustic and visual signals if their
seat belts have not been fastened.
For permanent deactivation, contact a Lancia
Dealership. The SBR system can only be
reactivated via the display Set Up Menu (see
chapter “Knowing your car").
The warning lights may be red or green and
operate as follows:
❒1 = front left seat (driver status for left-hand
drive versions);
❒2 = rear left seat (passenger);
❒3 = rear right seat (passenger);
❒4 = front right seat (passenger status for
left-hand drive versions).

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGESGENERAL WARNINGS
Warning lights are accompanied by a specific
message and/or sound when applicable. These
indications areconcise and precautionaryand,
as such, must not be considered as exhaustive
and/or an alternative to the information contained
in this Owner Handbook, which you are advised
to read carefully in all cases. In the event of a
failure indication,always refer to the contents
of this chapter.
IMPORTANT Failure indications displayed are
divided into two categories:very seriousandless
seriousfailures.
Very seriousfailures are indicated by a repeated
and prolonged warning “cycle”.
Less seriousfailures are indicated by a shorter
warning “cycle”.
The displaying cycle of both failure categories can
be stopped by pressing the button
. The control
panel warning light will stay on until the cause
of the malfunction is eliminated.
BRAKE FLUID LOW (red) /
HANDBRAKE ENGAGED (red)
Turning the key to the MAR-ON position
illuminates the warning light, but it should switch
off after a few seconds.
LOW BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
The warning light turns on when the level of the
brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the
minimum level due to a possible leak in the
circuit. On some versions the display shows the
dedicated message.
WARNING
If the warning light
switches on
when travelling, stop the car
immediately and contact a Lancia
Dealership.
HANDBRAKE ENGAGED
When the key is turned to MAR position, the
warning light switches on but should switch off
after a few seconds.

The warning light (or symbol on the display)
switches on when the handbrake is engaged. If the
car is moving the buzzer will also sound.
IMPORTANT If the warning light comes on when
the car is in motion, check that the handbrake
is not on.
EBD FAILURE (red) (amber)
The simultaneous switching on of the
(red),
(amber) andESCwarning lights with the
engine on, indicates either a failure of the EBD
system or that the system is not available. In this
case, the rear wheels may suddenly lock and
the vehicle may swerve when braking sharply.
Drive very carefully to the nearest Lancia
Dealership to have the system inspected
immediately. On some versions the display shows
the dedicated message.
ABS SYSTEM FAILURE (amber)
Turning the key to the MAR-ON position
illuminates the warning light, but it should switch
off after a few seconds. The warning light switches
on (on some versions, with a message on the
display and a symbol on the display) when the
system is not efficient. In this case the braking
system maintains its own unaltered efficiency but
without the advantage of the ABS system. Drive
carefully and go to a Lancia Dealership as soon as
possible.

BRAKE PAD WEAR
IMPORTANT Because the car is equipped with a
mechanical wear detection system for the front
brake pads, when these are replaced the rear
brake shoes should also be checked as well.
When the brake linings are about to wear out, a
light hiss is heard; in these circumstances it is still
possible, proceeding with caution, to carry on
driving. In any case, contact a Lancia Dealership
as soon as possible to have the worn brake pads
replaced.

AIRBAG FAILURE (red)
Turning the key to the MAR-ON position
illuminates the warning light, but it should switch
off after a few seconds. The warning light switches
on constantly (on some versions, with a message
on the display and a symbol on the display) to
indicate an airbag system fault.
WARNING
If when turning the key to MAR the
warning light
does not turn on
or stays on whilst driving, a failure may have
occurred in the restraint systems. In this
case the air bags or pretensioners may not
be deployed in an impact or, in a lower
number of cases, they may be deployed
accidentally. Before continuing, contact a
Lancia Dealership immediately to have the
system checked.
WARNING
A fault with the
warning light is
indicated by flashing of the
warning light, which signals the
deactivation of the passenger side front air
bag. In addition, the airbag system
automatically disables the air bags on the
passenger's side (both front and side airbags
for versions/markets, where provided). In
this case, the warning light
may not
indicate a fault in the restraint systems.
Before continuing, contact a Lancia
Dealership immediately to have the system
checked.
PASSENGER/SIDE AIR BAGS
DEACTIVATED (amber)
The
warning light switches on when the front
passenger's airbag and side bag are disabled. With
front passenger airbag on, when the ignition key
is turned to MAR, the
warning light switches on
constantly for several seconds, it flashes for
another few seconds and then it should switch off.
