2013 Lancia Thema instrument cluster

Tire Pressure Monitoring Low
Pressure WarningsThe TPM Telltale Light will
illuminate in the instrument
cluster and a chime will sound
when tire pressure is low in one or
more of the four active road tires. In
addition, the EVIC will display an
“Inflate Tire to XX” message for a
minimum of five seconds and a "LOW
TIRE" message and a graphic show-
ing the pressure values of each tire
with the low tire pressure values flash-
ing. The recommended cold placard
pressure inflation value is the pressure
value displayed in the "Inflate Tire to
XX" message displayed in the EVIC.
Should this occur, you should stop as
soon as possible and inflate the tires
with a low pressure condition (those
flashing in the EVIC graphic) to the
vehicle’s recommended cold placard
pressure inflation value. Once the sys-
tem receives the updated tire pres-
sures, the system will automatically update, the “Inflate Tire to XX” mes-
sage will no longer be displayed, the
graphic display in the EVIC will stop
flashing, and the TPM Telltale Light
will turn off. The vehicle may need to
be driven for up to 20 minutes above
24 km/h in order for the TPMS to
receive this information.
Service TPMS Warning
If a system fault is detected, the TPM
Telltale Light will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then remain on solid.
The system fault will also sound a
chime. In addition, the EVIC will dis-
play a "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM"
message for a minimum of five sec-
onds and then display dashes (- -) in
place of the pressure value to indicate
which sensor is not being received.
If the ignition switch is cycled, this
sequence will repeat, providing the
system fault still exists. If the system
fault no longer exists, the TPM Tell-
tale Light will no longer flash, and the
"SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message
will no longer display, and a pressurevalue will display in place of the
dashes. A system fault can occur due
to any of the following:
1. Signal interference due to elec-
tronic devices or driving next to facili-
ties emitting the same radio frequen-
cies as the TPM sensors.
2. Installing aftermarket window
tinting that contains materials that
may block radio wave signals.
3. Accumulation of snow or ice
around the wheels or wheel housings.
4. Using tire chains on the vehicle.
5. Using wheels/tires not equipped
with TPM sensors.
The EVIC will also display a "SER-
VICE TPM SYSTEM" message for a
minimum of five seconds when a sys-
tem fault related to an incorrect sen-
sor location fault is detected. In this
case, the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM"
message is then followed with a
graphic display with pressure values
still shown. This indicates that the
pressure values are still being received
from the TPM sensors but they may236

meet the Emission standards. The
system manages engine combustion to
allow the exhaust system’s catalyst to
trap and burn Particulate Matter
(PM) pollutants with no input or in-
teraction on your part.
Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC)” in “Understand-
ing Your Instrument Cluster” for fur-
ther information.
EXHAUST SYSTEM
The best protection against carbon
monoxide entry into the vehicle body
is a properly maintained engine ex-
haust system.
Whenever a change is noticed in the
sound of the exhaust system, when
exhaust fumes can be detected inside
the vehicle, or when the underside or
rear of the vehicle is damaged, have a
competent mechanic inspect the com-
plete exhaust system and adjacent
body areas for broken, damaged, de-
teriorated, or mispositioned parts.
Open seams or loose connections
could permit exhaust fumes to seepinto the passenger compartment. In
addition, have the exhaust system in-
spected each time the vehicle is raised
for lubrication or oil change. Replace
as required.
WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure or kill.
They contain carbon monoxide
(CO), which is colorless and odor-
less. Breathing it can make you un-
conscious and can eventually poi-
son you. To avoid breathing CO,
refer to “Safety Tips/Exhaust Gas”
in “Things To Know Before Start-
ing Your Vehicle” for further infor-
mation.CAUTION!The catalytic converter requires the
use of unleaded fuel only. Leaded
gasoline will destroy the effective-
ness of the catalyst as an emissions
control device and may seriously re-
duce engine performance and cause
serious damage to the engine.
Under normal operating conditions,
the catalytic converter will not require
maintenance. However, it is impor-
tant to keep the engine properly tuned
to assure proper catalyst operation
and prevent possible catalyst damage.CAUTION!Damage to the catalytic converter
can result if your vehicle is not kept
in proper operating condition. In the
event of engine malfunction, par-
ticularly involving engine misfire or
other apparent loss of performance,
have your vehicle serviced promptly.
Continued operation of your vehicle
with a severe malfunction could
cause the converter to overheat, re-
sulting in possible damage to the
converter and the vehicle.NOTE: Intentional tampering
with emissions control systems can
result in civil penalties being as-
sessed against you.

Cleaning Headlights
Your vehicle has plastic headlights
that are lighter and less susceptible to
stone breakage than glass headlights.Plastic is not as scratch resistant as
glass and therefore different lens clean-
ing procedures must be followed.To minimize the possibility of scratch-
ing the lenses and reducing light out-
put, avoid wiping with a dry cloth. To
remove road dirt, wash with a mild
soap solution followed by rinsing.Do not use abrasive cleaning compo-
nents, solvents, steel wool or other ag-
gressive material to clean the lenses.Glass Surfaces
All glass surfaces should be cleaned
on a regular basis with any commer-
cial household-type glass cleaner.
Never use an abrasive type cleaner.
Use caution when cleaning the inside
rear window equipped with an elec-
tric defroster. Do not use scrapers or
other sharp instruments that may
scratch the elements.When cleaning the rear view mirror,
spray cleaner on the towel or rag that
you are using. Do not spray cleaner
directly on the mirror.
Cleaning Plastic Instrument
Cluster Lenses
The lenses in front of the instruments
in this vehicle are molded in clear
plastic. When cleaning the lenses,
care must be taken to avoid scratch-
ing the plastic.
1. Clean with a wet soft rag. A mild
soap solution may be used, but do not
use high alcohol content or abrasive
cleaners. If soap is used, wipe clean
with a clean damp rag.
2. Dry with a soft cloth.
Seat Belt Maintenance
Do not bleach, dye, or clean the belts
with chemical solvents or abrasive
cleaners. This will weaken the fabric.
Sun damage can also weaken the fabric.If the belts need cleaning, use a mild
soap solution, or lukewarm water. Do
not remove the belts from the vehicle
to wash them.Replace the belts if they appear frayed
or worn or if the buckles do not work
properly.
Cleaning The Center Console
Cupholders
Clean with a damp cloth or towel using
a mild detergent with the cupholder in
the center console.NOTE: The cupholder cannot be
removed.

cated in the engine compartment. This
module contains fuses and relays.
