BODYWORK
PROTECTION FROM ATMOSPHERIC AGENTS
The main causes of corrosion are the following:
❍atmospheric pollution;
❍salty air and humidity (coastal areas, or hot humid
climates);
❍seasonal environmental conditions.
The abrasive action of wind-borne atmospheric dust and
sand, as well as mud and gravel raised by other cars is
also not to be underestimated.
On your car, Lancia has implemented the best manufac-
turing technologies to effectively protect the bodywork
against corrosion.These include:
❍paint products and systems which give the car a spe-
cial resistance to corrosion and abrasion;
❍use of galvanised (or pre-treated) steel sheets with
high resistance to corrosion;
❍spraying the underbody, engine compartment, wheel
arch internal parts and other elements with highly
protective wax-based products;
❍spraying protective plastic materials in the most ex-
posed areas: underdoor, inner wing parts, edges, etc.;
❍using “open” boxed sections to prevent condensation
and pockets of moisture from causing rust inside.
BODY AND UNDERBODY WARRANTY
Your car is covered by warranty against perforation due
to rust of any original element of the structure or body.
For the general terms of this warranty, refer to the War-
ranty Booklet.

254SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
Dry the less visible parts particularly carefully, such as
the door frames, bonnet and the headlight frames, where
water may stagnate more easily. The car should not be
taken to a closed area immediately, but left outside so that
residual water can evaporate.
Do not wash the car after it has been left in the sun or
with the bonnet hot: this may alter the shine of the paint-
work.
Exterior plastic parts must be cleaned in the same way as
the rest of the car.
Where possible, do not park under trees; the resinous
substance that many species release give the paint a dull
appearance and increase the possibility of triggering rust-
ing processes. ADVICE FOR PRESERVING THE BODYWORK
Paint
Paintwork does not only serve an aesthetic purpose, but
also protects the underlying sheet metal.
Touch up abrasions and scratches immediately to prevent
rust formation. Use only original paint products for
touch-ups (see “Bodywork paint identification plate” in
the “Technical specifications” section).
Normal maintenance of paintwork consists in washing
the car: the frequency depends on the conditions and en-
vironment where the car is used. For example, in highly
polluted areas, or if the roads are sprayed with salt, it is
wise to wash the car more frequently.
To correctly wash the vehicle, proceed as follows:
❍if taking your car through an automatic car wash, re-
move the aerial from the roof to avoid damaging it;
❍in washing stations keep the steam jet/high pressure
washing nozzles at least 40 cm away from the body-
work to prevent damage. It should be remembered
that the build up of water can damage the car over
a period of time;
❍wash the body using a low pressure jet of water;
❍wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy solution over the
bodywork, frequently rinsing the sponge;
❍rinse well with water and dry with a jet of air or a
chamois leather.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below are
determined on the basis of the type-approval tests laid
down by specific European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for measuring con-
sumption:
❍urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that
simulates urban use of the car;
❍extra-urban cycle: frequent accelerations in all gears,
simulating extra-urban use of the vehicle: speed varies
between 0 and 120 km/h;
❍combined consumption: calculated with a weighting
of about 37% of urban cycle consumption and about
63% of extra-urban consumption.IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic situations,
weather conditions, driving style, general conditions of
the car, trim level/equipment/accessories, load, climate
control system, roof rack, other situations that affect air
drag may lead to different fuel consumption levels than
those measured.
