WARNING!(Continued)
 Battery posts, terminals, and re- lated accessories contain lead and
lead compounds. Wash hands af-
ter handling.CAUTION!
 It is essential when replacing thecables on the battery that the
positive cable is attached to the
positive post and the negative
cable is attached to the negative
post. Battery posts are marked
positive (+) and negative (-) and
are identified on the battery case.
Cable clamps should be tight on
the terminal posts and free of cor-
rosion.
 If a “fast charger” is used while
the battery is in the vehicle, dis-
connect both vehicle battery
cables before connecting the
charger to the battery. Do not use
a “fast charger” to provide start-
ing voltage. AIR CONDITIONER
MAINTENANCE
For best possible performance, your
air conditioner should be checked and
serviced by an authorized dealer at
the start of each warm season. This
service should include cleaning of the
condenser fins and a system perfor-
mance check. Drive belt tension
should also be checked at this time.
CAUTION!
Do not use chemical flushes in your
air conditioning system as the
chemicals can damage your air
conditioning components. Such
damage is not covered by the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
WARNING!
 Use only refrigerants and com-
pressor lubricants approved by
the manufacturer for your air
conditioning system. Some unap-
proved refrigerants are flam-
mable and can explode, injuring
you. Other unapproved refriger-
ants or lubricants can cause the
system to fail, requiring costly re-
pairs.
 The air conditioning system con- tains refrigerant under high pres-
sure. To avoid risk of personal
injury or damage to the system,
adding refrigerant or any repair
requiring lines to be disconnected
should be done by an experienced
repairman.

Refrigerant Recovery And
Recycling
R-134a Air Conditioning Refrigerant
is a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) that is
endorsed by the Environmental Pro-
tection Agency and is an ozone-saving
product. However, the manufacturer
recommends that air conditioning
service be performed by authorized
dealer or other service facilities using
recovery and recycling equipment.
NOTE: Use only manufacturer
approved A/C system sealers, stop
leak products, seal conditioners,
compressor oil, and refrigerants.
A/C Air FilterCAUTION!
Car maintenance should be done at
a LANCIA Dealership. For routine
and minor maintenance operations
you wish to carry out yourself, we
do recommend you have the proper
equipment, genuine LANCIA spare
parts and the necessary fluids; do
not however carry out these opera-
tions if you have no experience.Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule”
for the proper maintenance intervals.
WARNING!
Do not remove the A/C air filter
while the blower is operating or
personal injury may result.
The A/C air filter is located in the
fresh air inlet behind the glove box.
Perform the following procedure to
replace the filter:
1. Open the glove compartment and
remove all contents.
2. Push in on the sides of the glove
compartment and lower the door.
3. Pivot the glove compartment
downward.
4. Disengage the two retaining tabs
that secure the filter cover to the
HVAC housing, and remove the cover. 5. Remove the A/C air filter by pull-
ing it straight out of the housing.
6. Install the A/C air filter with the
arrow on the filter pointing toward
the floor. When installing the filter
cover, make sure the retaining tabs
fully engage the cover.
CAUTION!
The A/C air filter is identified with
an arrow to indicate airflow direc-
tion through the filter. Failure to
properly install the filter will result
in the need to replace it more often.
7. Rotate the glove compartment
door back into position.

Coolant Level
The coolant bottle provides a quick
visual method for determining that
the coolant level is adequate. With the
engine cold, the level of the engine
coolant (antifreeze) in the coolant re-
covery bottle should be between the
ranges indicated on the bottle.
The radiator normally remains com-
pletely full, so there is no need to
remove the radiator cap unless check-
ing for engine coolant (antifreeze)
freeze point or replacing the engine
coolant (antifreeze). Advise your ser-
vice attendant of this. As long as the
engine operating temperature is satis-
factory, the coolant bottle only needs
to be checked once a month.
When additional engine coolant (an-
tifreeze) is needed to maintain the
proper level, it should be added to the
coolant bottle. Do not overfill.Points To Remember
NOTE: When the vehicle is
stopped after a few kilometers of
operation, you may observe vapor
coming from the front of the engine
compartment. This is normally a
result of moisture from rain, snow,
or high humidity accumulating on
the radiator and being vaporized
when the thermostat opens, allow-
ing hot engine coolant (antifreeze)
to enter the radiator.
If an examination of your engine com-
partment shows no evidence of radia-
tor or hose leaks, the vehicle may be
safely driven. The vapor will soon dis-
sipate.
 Do not overfill the coolant recovery
bottle.
 Check the engine coolant (anti- freeze) freeze point in the radiator
and in the coolant recovery bottle.
If engine coolant (antifreeze) needs
to be added, contents of the coolant
recovery bottle must also be pro-
tected against freezing.  If frequent engine coolant (anti-
freeze) additions are required, or if
the level in the coolant recovery
bottle does not drop when the en-
gine cools, the cooling system
should be pressure tested for leaks.
 Maintain engine coolant (anti- freeze) concentration at 50% en-
gine coolant (antifreeze) (mini-
mum) and distilled water for
proper corrosion protection of your
engine, which contains aluminum
components.
 Make sure that the radiator and coolant recovery bottle overflow
hoses are not kinked or obstructed.
 Keep the front of the radiator clean. If your vehicle is equipped with air
conditioning, also keep the front of
the condenser clean.
 Do not change the thermostat for Summer or Winter operation. If re-
placement is ever necessary, install
ONLY the correct type thermostat.
Other designs may result in unsat-
isfactory coolant performance,
poor gas mileage, and increased
emissions.

CAUTION!
Do not use chemical flushes in your
transmission as the chemicals can
damage your transmission compo-
nents. Such damage is not covered
by the New Vehicle Limited War-
ranty.
Fluid Level Check
The fluid level is preset at the factory
and does not require adjustment un-
der normal operating conditions.
Routine fluid level checks are not re-
quired, therefore the transmission has
no dipstick. Your authorized dealer
can check your transmission fluid
level using a special service dipstick.
If you notice fluid leakage or trans-
mission malfunction, visit your au-
thorized dealer immediately to have
the transmission fluid level checked.
Operating the vehicle with an im-
proper fluid level can cause severe
transmission damage.
CAUTION!
If a transmission fluid leak occurs,
visit your authorized dealer imme-
diately. Severe transmission dam-
age may occur. Your authorized
dealer has the proper tools to adjust
the fluid level accurately.
Fluid And Filter Changes
Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule”
for the proper maintenance intervals.
In addition, change the fluid and filter
if the transmission is disassembled for
any reason.CAUTION!
Car maintenance should be done at
a LANCIA Dealership. For routine
and minor maintenance operations
you wish to carry out yourself, we
do recommend you have the proper
equipment, genuine LANCIA spare
parts and the necessary fluids; do
not however carry out these opera-
tions if you have no experience. APPEARANCE CARE AND
PROTECTION FROM
CORROSION
Protection Of Body And Paint
From Corrosion
Vehicle body care requirements vary
according to geographic locations and
usage. Chemicals that make roads
passable in snow and ice and those
that are sprayed on trees and road
surfaces during other seasons are
highly corrosive to the metal in your
vehicle. Outside parking, which ex-
poses your vehicle to airborne con-
taminants, road surfaces on which the
vehicle is operated, extreme hot or
cold weather and other extreme con-
ditions will have an adverse effect on
paint, metal trim, and underbody
protection.
The following maintenance recom-
mendations will enable you to obtain
maximum benefit from the corrosion
resistance built into your vehicle.
315

VEHICLE STORAGE
If you are leaving your vehicle dor-
mant for more than 21 days, you may
want to take steps to protect your
battery. You may do the following:
 Remove the 20 Amp mini-fuse inthe Totally Integrated Power Mod-
ule (TIPM) labeled Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD).
 Or, disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
 Anytime you store your vehicle, or keep it out of service for two weeks
or more, run the air conditioning
system at idle for about five min-
utes in the fresh air and high blower
setting. This will ensure adequate
system lubrication to minimize the
possibility of compressor damage
when the system is started again. REPLACEMENT BULBS
