2012 Lancia Voyager overheating

 Door AjarThis light will turn on to
indicate that one or more
doors may be ajar.
 Oil Pressure Warning Light This light indicates low engine
oil pressure. The light should
turn on momentarily when the engine
is started. If the light turns on while
driving, stop the vehicle and shut off
the engine as soon as possible. A
chime will sound when this light turns
on.
Do not operate the vehicle until the
cause is corrected. This light does not
show how much oil is in the engine.
The engine oil level must be checked
under the hood.
 Charging System Light This light shows the status of
the electrical charging system.
The light should come on when the
ignition switch is first turned ON and
remain on briefly as a bulb check. If
the light stays on or comes on while
driving, turn off some of the vehicle's
non-essential electrical devices or in-
crease engine speed (if at idle). If the charging system light remains on, it
means that the vehicle is experiencing
a problem with the charging system.
Obtain SERVICE IMMEDIATELY.
See an authorized dealer.
If jump starting is required, refer to
“Jump Starting Procedures” in “What
To Do In Emergencies”.
 Electronic Throttle Control
(ETC) Light This light informs you of a
problem with the Electronic
Throttle Control (ETC)
system. The light will come
on when the ignition is first turned ON
and remain on briefly as a bulb check.
If the light does not come on during
starting, have the system checked by
an authorized dealer.
If a problem is detected, the light will
come on while the engine is running.
Cycle the ignition key when the ve-
hicle has completely stopped and the
shift lever is placed in the PARK posi-
tion. The light should turn off.
If the light remains lit with the engine
running, your vehicle will usually be
drivable. However, see an authorized dealer for service as soon as possible.
If the light is flashing when the engine
is running, immediate service is re-
quired. You may experience reduced
performance, an elevated/rough idle
or engine stall and your vehicle may
require towing.
 Engine Temperature Warning
Light This light warns of an over-
heated engine condition. As
temperatures rise and the
gauge approaches H,this indicator
will illuminate and a single chime will
sound after reaching a set threshold.
Further overheating will cause the
temperature gauge to pass H,a con-
tinuous chime will occur until the en-
gine is allowed to cool.
If the light turns on while driving,
safely pull over and stop the vehicle. If
the A/C system is on, turn it off. Also,
shift the transmission into NEUTRAL
and idle the vehicle. If the tempera-
ture reading does not return to nor-
mal, turn the engine off immediately
and call for service. Refer to “If Your
Engine Overheats” in “What To Do In
Emergencies” for more information.

Cooling System
To reduce potential for engine and
transmission overheating, take the
following actions:
 City Driving
When stopped for short periods of
time, shift the transmission into NEU-
TRAL but do not increase engine idle
speed.
 Highway Driving
Reduce speed.
 Air Conditioning
Turn off temporarily.
Trailer Hitch Attaching Points
Your vehicle will require extra equip-
ment to tow a trailer safely and effi-
ciently. The trailer tow hitch must be
attached to your vehicle using the
provided attaching points on the ve-
hicle's frame. Refer to the following
chart to determine the accurate at-
taching points. Other equipment,
such as trailer sway controls and
braking equipment, trailer equalizing
(leveling) equipment and low profile
mirrors, may also be required or
strongly recommended.

TOWING THIS VEHICLE
BEHIND ANOTHER
VEHICLE
Recreational towing is not al-
lowed.
CAUTION!
DO NOT flat tow this vehicle. Dam-
age to the drivetrain will result.
NOTE:
This vehicle may be towed on a
flatbed or vehicle trailer provided
all four wheels are OFF the
ground.CAUTION!
Towing this vehicle in violation of
the above requirements can cause
severe transmission damage. Dam-
age from improper towing is not cov-
ered under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.

the discharged vehicle’s engine) away
from the battery and the fuel injection
system.WARNING!
Do not connect the cable to the nega-
tive post(-)of the discharged bat-
tery. The resulting electrical spark
could cause the battery to explode
and could result in personal injury.
5. Start the engine in the vehicle that
has the booster battery, let the engine
idle a few minutes, and then start the
engine in the vehicle with the dis-
charged battery. Once the engine is
started, remove the jumper cables in
the reverse sequence:
6. Disconnect the negative (-)jumper
cable from the negative (-)post of the
vehicle with the discharged battery.
7. Disconnect the negative end (-)of
the jumper cable from the negative (-)
post of the booster battery. 8. Disconnect the opposite end of the
positive
(+)jumper cable from the
positive (+)post of the booster bat-
tery.
9. Disconnect the positive (+)end of
the jumper cable from the positive (+)
post of the discharged vehicle.
If frequent jump-starting is required
to start your vehicle you should have
the battery and charging system in-
spected at your authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
Accessories that can be plugged into
the vehicle power outlets draw
power from the vehicle’s battery,
even when not in use (i.e., cellular
phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged
in long enough, the vehicle’s battery
will discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the en-
gine from starting. FREEING A STUCK
VEHICLE
If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud,
sand or snow, it can often be moved by
a rocking motion. Turn your steering
wheel right and left to clear the area
around the front wheels. Then move
the shift lever back and forth between
DRIVE and REVERSE. Using mini-
mal accelerator pedal pressure to
maintain the rocking motion, without
spinning the wheels, is most effective.
CAUTION!
Racing the engine or spinning the
wheels may lead to transmission
overheating and failure. Allow the
engine to idle with the shift lever in
NEUTRAL for at least one minute
after every five rocking-motion
cycles. This will minimize overheat-
ing and reduce the risk of transmis-
sion failure during prolonged efforts
to free a stuck vehicle.
279

NOTE:
To improve the vehicle’s traction
when starting off in deep snow,
sand or gravel, it may be desirable
to switch the Electronic Stability
Program (ESP) to “Partial Off”
mode. Refer to “Electronic Brake
Control System” in “Starting and
Operating” for further informa-
tion.CAUTION!
 When “rocking” a stuck vehicleby moving between DRIVE and
REVERSE, do not spin the wheels
faster than 24 km/h, or drivetrain
damage may result.
 Revving the engine or spinning
the wheels too fast may lead to
transmission overheating and
failure. It can also damage the
tires. Do not spin the wheels above
48 km/h while in gear (no trans-
mission shifting occurring).
WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be danger-
ous. Forces generated by excessive
wheel speeds may cause damage, or
even failure, of the axle and tires. A
tire could explode and injure some-
one. Do not spin your vehicle's
wheels faster than 48 km/h or for
longer than 30 seconds continuously
without stopping when you are stuck
and do not let anyone near a spin-
ning wheel, no matter what the
speed.
SHIFT LEVER
OVERRIDE
If a malfunction occurs and the shift
lever cannot be moved out of the
PARK position, you can use the fol-
lowing procedure to temporarily
move the shift lever:
1. Firmly apply the parking brake.
2. Remove the shift lever access
cover, located near the top right of the
shift lever in the instrument panel. 3. Turn the ignition to the ON/RUN
position without starting the engine
(engine OFF).
4. Press and maintain firm pressure
on the brake pedal.
5. Insert a screwdriver or similar tool
into the hole and push and hold the
shift lever override forward.
6. Move the shift lever to the NEU-
TRAL position.
7. The vehicle may then be started in
NEUTRAL.
8. Reinstall the shift lever override
access cover.
