2012 Lancia Musa oil temperature

USE OF ENVIRONMENTAL-FRIENDLY MATERIALS
All components of the LANCIA Musa are asbestos-free. Padding and the climate control system are free from CFC
(chlorofluorocarbon), the gases deemed responsible for the destruction of the ozone layer. Paint and bolt corrosion
protections are cadmium-free and safe for the air and water.
EMISSION REDUCTION DEVICES (petrol engines)
Three-way catalytic converter
The exhaust system is equipped with a catalyser made of noble metal alloys. It is accommodated in a stainless steel
container which can withstand high operating temperatures.
The catalyser converts unburnt hydrocarbons, carbon oxide and nitrogen oxides contained in exhaust gases (the
harmful gas content in exhaust is also limited by the electronic injection and ignition system), turning them into non-
polluting compounds.
Due to the high temperature reached during operation of the catalytic converter, it is advisable not to park the car over
flammable materials (paper, oil, dry grass, dry leaves, etc.).
Lambda sensors
The lambda sensors detect the oxygen content in exhaust gases. The signal transmitted by the lambda sensors is used
by the injection and ignition system electronic control unit to adjust the air-fuel mixture.
Anti-evaporation system
It is impossible to prevent the formation of petrol vapours, even when the engine is off. For this reason, a system has
been developed with traps the vapours in a special activate carbon canister.
The vapours are sucked in and burnt in the engine during operation.

RUNNING COSTS
Here are some suggestions which may
help you to keep the running costs of
your vehicle down and lower the
amount of toxic emissions released
into the atmosphere.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried
out in accordance with the “Service
schedule”.
Ty r e s
Check tyre pressure regularly at least
once every four weeks: excessively low
pressure will increase consumption
because rolling resistance will be
higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded
boot. The weight of the car (especially
when driving in town) and its trim
greatly affects consumption and sta-
bility.Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack
from the roof after use. These acces-
sories decrease aerodynamic penetra-
tion of the car and have a negative ef-
fect on consumption. It is better to use
a trailer to transport particularly
bulky objects.
Electric devices
Use electric devices only for the
amount of time needed. Rear heated
window, additional headlights, wind-
screen wipers and heater fan need a
considerable amount of energy, there-
fore increasing the requirement of
current increases fuel consumption
(up to +25% in the urban cycle).
Climate control
The climate control system requires
higher fuel consumption (up to +20%
in average): use the air vents when the
external temperature allows to.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified aerodynamic
items may adversely affect air drag
and fuel consumption levels.DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine up with the
car standing: the engine warms up
very slowly in these conditions, in-
creasing consumption and emissions.
It is advisable to start off immediately
and slowly keeping the engine speed
down: the engine will warm up much
faster this way.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving up when starting at
traffic lights or before stopping the
engine. The latter action, like dou-
bling the clutch, is unnecessary and
causes increase of consumption and
pollution.
Gear selection
Use a higher gear as soon as traffic
and road conditions allow. Using a
low gear for faster acceleration will in-
crease consumption.
In the same way improper use of a
high gear increases consumption,
emissions an engine wear.

Use
(●)IMPORTANT Do not use fluids with different specifications for topping up or mixing.
(❐) When the vehicle is used under particularly harsh climate conditions, we recommend using a 60% mixture of PARAFLUUPand
demineralised water.
