CLEANING DPF

(only Multijet versions
with DPF - amber)
When the ignition key is turned to
MAR (ON), the warning light switches
on but it must switch off after a few
seconds. The warning light comes on
constantly to notify the driver that the
DPF system needs to eliminate cap-
tured pollutants (particulate) by the
regeneration process. The warning
light does not come on during every

Side/tail lights and low beams
The warning light comes on when
side/tail lights or low beams are
turned on.

Speed limit exceeded
The display will show the dedicated
message when the car exceeds the set
speed limit (see “Multifunctional Dis-
play” in section “Dashboard and con-
trols”).DPF regeneration, but only when dri-
ving conditions require notification of
the driver. To switch the warning
light off, the car must stay in motion
until regeneration has been com-
pleted. The process normally takes
about 15 minutes. The optimum con-
ditions to end the process are achieved
by keeping the car in motion up to
60km/h with an engine speed higher
than 2,000 rpm. This light coming on
is not a car defect and therefore the
car does not need to go to the work-
shop. A specific message will appear
on the display when the warning light
comes on (for versions/markets, where
provided).
WARNING
Always drive at a speed
appropriate to the traffic
conditions, the weather and speed
limits. The engine may be turned
off while the DPF light is on; how-
ever, repeated interruption of the
regeneration process may result in
premature exhaustion of engine oil.
For this reason it is always advis-
able to wait for the light to go off
before turning off the engine, fol-
lowing the instructions appearing
above. It is not advisable to com-
plete DPF regeneration with the
vehicle stationary

If after a few attempts the engine does
not start, do not insist but contact the
nearest Lancia Dealership.
IMPORTANT Never connect the neg-
ative terminals of the two batteries di-
rectly: sparks could ignite explosive
gas released from the battery. If the
auxiliary battery is installed on an-
other car, prevent accidental contact
between metallic parts of the two cars.
fig. 2L0D0396m
This procedure must be
performed by expert per-
sonnel because incorrect actions
may cause electrical discharge of
considerable intensity. Further-
more, battery fluid is poisonous
and corrosive: avoid contact with
your skin and eyes. Keep naked
flames away from the battery. No
smoking. Do not cause sparks.
WARNING
Never use a rapid battery
charger to jump start the
engine: this could damage
the electronic systems and
the engine ignition and injection
control units.

BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by push-
ing, towing or driving downhill. This
could cause a flow of fuel into the cat-
alytic converter and damage it beyond
repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the
brake servo and the electric power
steering system are not activated un-
til the engine is started, a greater ef-
fort will therefore be required to press
the brake pedal or turn the steering
wheel.
Indicate that the car is
standing according to the
laws in force: emergency lights, re-
fracting warning triangle, etc. Pas-
sengers should leave the car, partic-
ularly if it is very loaded, and wait
for the wheel to be changed away
from on-coming traffic. Arrange
wedges or other suitable material
under the wheels to block the car on
slopes or rough roads.
