2012 Lancia Ypsilon gearbox

WARNING
Depress the clutch pedal fully to
change gear correctly. It is therefore
essential that there is nothing under the
pedals: make sure the mats are lying flat and
do not get in the way of the pedals.Do not drive with your hand resting on
the gear lever as the force exerted,
even if slight, could lead over time to
premature wear of the gearbox internal
components.
SAVING FUELHere are some suggestions which can help you to
save fuel and lower harmful emissions.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out in
accordance with the “Scheduled Servicing Plan”.
Tyres
Check the tyre pressure at least once every 4
weeks: if the pressure is too low, consumption
levels increase as resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot. The weight
of the car and its arrangement greatly affect fuel
consumption and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof
after use. These accessories lower aerodynamic
penetration and adversely affect consumption
levels. When transporting particularly large
objects, use a trailer if possible.

IN AN EMERGENCY
In an emergency we recommend that you call the free-phone number found on the Warranty
Booklet. It is also possible to go to the www.lancia.com website to find the closest Lancia
Dealership.STARTING THE ENGINEGo to a Lancia Dealership immediately if
instrument panel warning light
remains on
constantly.
JUMP STARTING
If the battery is flat, the engine may be started
using an auxiliary battery with the same capacity
or a little higher than the flat one.To start the vehicle, proceed as follows:
❒connect the positive terminals (sign + near the
terminal) of the two batteries with a jump lead
fig. 114;
❒with a second lead, connect the negative
terminal – of the auxiliary battery to an
earthing point
on the engine or the gearbox of
the car to be started;
❒start the engine;
❒when the engine has been started, remove the
leads reversing the order above.
For versions with Start&Stop system, in case of
starting by auxiliary battery, refer to the
paragraph “Start&Stop system” in the chapter
“Getting to know your car”.
If after a few attempts the engine does not start,
do not persist but contact a Lancia Dealership.
IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the negative
terminals of the two batteries: sparks could ignite
explosive gas released from the battery. If the
auxiliary battery is installed on another car,
prevent accidental contact between metallic parts
of the two cars.
