gine oil change indicator system. The
“CHAngE OIL” message will flash in
the instrument cluster odometer for
approximately 12 seconds after a
single chime has sounded to indicate
the next scheduled oil change inter-
val. The engine oil change indicator
system is duty cycle based, which
means the engine oil change interval

CAUTION!(Continued)
 Car maintenance should be done
at a LANCIA Dealership. For rou-
tine and minor maintenance op-
erations you wish to carry out
yourself, we do recommend you
have the proper equipment, genu-
ine LANCIA spare parts and the
necessary fluids; do not however
carry out these operations if you
have no experience.
 Your vehicle has been built with
improved fluids that protect the
performance and durability of
your vehicle and also allow ex-
tended maintenance intervals. Do
not use chemical flushes in these
components as the chemicals can
damage your engine, transmis-
sion, power steering or air condi-
tioning. Such damage is not cov-
ered by the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty. If a flush is needed be-
cause of component malfunction,
use only the specified fluid for the
flushing procedure. ENGINE OIL
Checking Oil Level
To assure proper engine lubrication of
your
vehicle's engine, the engine oil
must be maintained at the correct
level. The best time to check the en-
gine oil level is about five minutes
after a fully warmed engine is shut off.
Do not check oil level before starting
the engine after it has sat overnight.
Checking engine oil level when the
engine is cold will give you an incor-
rect reading.
Checking the oil while the vehicle is
on level ground and only when the
engine is hot, will improve the accu-
racy of the oil level readings. Maintain
the oil level between the range mark-
ings on the dipstick. Either the range
markings consist of a crosshatch zone
marked SAFE or a crosshatch zone
marked with MIN at the low end of
the range and MAX at the high end of
the range. Adding 1.0 Liter of oil
when the reading is at the low end of
the range marking will raise the oil
level to the high end of the range
marking.
CAUTION!
 Do not overfill the engine. Over- filling the engine will cause oil
aeration, which can lead to loss of
oil pressure and an increase in oil
temperature. This could damage
your engine. Also, be sure the oil
fill cap is replaced and tightened
after adding oil.
 Car maintenance should be done
at a LANCIA Dealership. For rou-
tine and minor maintenance op-
erations you wish to carry out
yourself, we do recommend you
have the proper equipment, genu-
ine LANCIA spare parts and the
necessary fluids; do not however
carry out these operations if you
have no experience.
