2012 Lancia Ypsilon steering wheel

If, when the ignition key is at MAR the
warning light remains lit, turn the key to
STOP and then back to MAR; if the warning light
remains lit, try with the other keys provided
with the car.
Contact a Lancia Dealership if you still cannot
start the engine.
Warning light
will flash for 60
seconds after starting or during
prolonged cranking to indicate a fault
with the glow plug heating system. You can
use the car as usual if the engine starts but
you should contact a Lancia Dealership as
soon as possible.
WARNING
It is dangerous to run the engine in
enclosed areas. The engine takes
in oxygen and releases carbon dioxide,
carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.
WARNING
Remember that the brake servo and
power steering are not operational
until the engine has been started, therefore
much effort than usual is required on the
brake pedal and steering wheel.
We recommend that during the initial
period you do not demand to full
performance from the car (e.g.
excessive acceleration, long journeys at top
speed, sharp braking etc.).When the engine is switched off never
leave the key turned to MAR to prevent
useless current absorption from
draining the battery.Never jump start the engine by
pushing, towing or coasting downhill.
This could cause fuel to flow into the
catalytic converter and damage it beyond
repair.
HOW TO WARM UP THE ENGINE AFTER IT
HAS JUST STARTED
Proceed as follows:
❒Drive off slowly, letting the engine turn at
medium revs. Do not accelerate abruptly;
❒Do not demand full performance at first. Wait
until the engine coolant temperature gauge
starts moving.

“DUALDRIVE” ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING FAILURE (red)
This warning light switches on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off
after a few seconds.
If the warning light (or, on some versions, a
message and a symbol on the display) remains on,
you may not have steering assistance and the
effort required to operate the steering wheel could
be notably increased; steering is, however,
possible. In this case, contact a Lancia Dealership.
IMPORTANT In some circumstances, factors
independent of the electric power steering could
cause the warning light on the instrument panel to
switch on. In this case, stop the car immediately,
switch off the engine for about 20 seconds and
then restart the engine. If the warning light (or, on
some versions, a message and a symbol on the
display) remains on constantly, contact a Lancia
Dealership.
IMPORTANT After the battery is disconnected,
the steering must be initialised. The warning light
switches on to indicate this. To carry out this
procedure, simply turn the steering wheel all the
way from one end to the other or drive in a
straight line for about a hundred metres.
CRUISE CONTROL (green)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This warning light switches on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off
after a few seconds, if the Cruise Control is
deactivated.
The warning light switches on when the Cruise
Control ring nut is turned to the ON position (see
the “Cruise Control” paragraph in the "Knowing
your car" section). On some versions the display
shows the dedicated message.DPF (PARTICULATE FILTER) BEING
CLEANED
(only Diesel versions with DPF) (amber)
Turning the key to the MAR-ON position
illuminates the warning light, but it should switch
off after a few seconds.
The warning light (together with a message and a
symbol on the display on some versions) switches
on constantly to notify the driver that the DPF
system needs to eliminate captured pollutants
(particulate) through the regeneration process.

Never use a fast battery-charger to start
the engine as this could damage the
electronic systems of your car,
particularly the ignition and fuel supply
control units.
WARNING
This procedure must be performed by
expert personnel because incorrect
actions could cause electrical discharge of
considerable intensity. Furthermore, battery
fluid is poisonous and corrosive: avoid
contact with skin and eyes. Keep naked
flames and lighted cigarettes away from the
battery and do not cause sparks.
BUMP STARTING
Never jump start the engine by pushing, towing or
coasting downhill.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake servo and
electrical power steering system are not active
until the engine is started. A much greater effort
will therefore be required to use the brake pedal or
turn the steering wheel.
REPLACING A WHEELGENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The car is equipped with the “Fix&Go Automatic
Kit”: see the paragraph “Fix&Go Automatic
Kit” for how to use this device.
As an alternative to the “Fix&Go Automatic Kit”
the car may be equipped with a space-saver
wheel: see the instructions on the following pages
for changing the tyre.
WARNING
The space-saver wheel (for versions/
markets where provided) is specific
to your car, do not use it on other models, or
use the space-saver wheel of other models
on your car. The space-saver wheel must
only be used in case of emergency. It must
only be used for the distance necessary
to reach a service point and the car speed
must not exceed 80 km/h. The space-saver
wheel has an orange sticker that summarises
the main cautions for use and limitations.
Never remove or cover the label. The
following information is provided in four
languages on the label: "Important! For
temporary use only! 80 km/h max! Replace
with a standard tyre as soon as possible.
Never cover this indication." Never apply a
hub cap on a space-saver wheel.

WARNING
Before towing, turn the ignition key to
MAR and then to STOP without
removing it. The steering column will
automatically lock when the key is removed
and the wheels cannot be steered.
WARNING
Before tightening the hook clean the
threaded housing thoroughly. Make
sure that the hook is fully fastened in the
housing before towing the car.
WARNING
Whilst towing, remember that as the
assistance of the brake servo and
the electric power assisted steering is not
available, greater force needs to be exerted
on the brake pedal and more effort is
required on the steering wheel. Do not use
flexible cables when towing and avoid jerky
movements. During towing, make sure that
the trailer hitch does not damage any
components it is touching. When towing the
car, it is compulsory to respect specific
highway code regulations relating to the tow
hook and procedures for towing on the
road. Do not start the engine while towing
the car.

The radio with MP3 player:
❒recognises only the folders that contain MP3
format files;
❒if the MP3 files on a CD-ROM are structured in
"sub-folders", their structure is compressed to a
single level structure where the "sub-folders" are
taken to the level of the main folders.
AUX (only with the Blue&Me™ system)(for versions/markets, where provided)
INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the variants regarding the
operation of the AUX source: as far as the
operation of the radio is concerned, refer to the
description in the "Functions and Adjustments"
chapter.
AUX MODE
To activate the AUX source, press the MEDIA
button or the SRC control on the steering wheel
several times till the corresponding source is
displayed.
IMPORTANT
the functions of the device connected with the
AUX socket are directly managed by the device
itself; it is not possible to change
track/folder/playlist with radio or steering wheel
controls.
Do not leave the cable of your portable player
connected with the AUX socket after the
disconnection, to avoid possible hisses from the
speakers.
NOTE The AUX socket is not incorporated in the
radio. For its position, refer to theBlue&Me™
Supplement and its Quick Guide.
