Electronic Speed Control SETThis light will turn on when
the electronic speed control
is SET. For further infor-
mation, refer to “Electronic
Speed Control” in “Understanding

EVIC AMBER TELLTALE
LIGHTS
This area will show reconfigurable
amber caution telltales. These tell-
tales include:
Low Fuel Light
When the fuel level reaches
approximately 11.0 L this
light will turn on, and remain on until
fuel is added.
Loose Gascap Indicator (for
versions/markets, where provided)
If the vehicle diagnostic sys-
tem determines that the fuel
filler cap is loose, improp-
erly installed, or damaged,
a loose gascap indicator will display in
the telltale display area. Tighten the
fuel filler cap properly and press the SELECT button to turn off the mes-
sage. If the problem continues, the
message will appear the next time the
vehicle is started.
A loose, improperly installed, or dam-
aged fuel filler cap may also turn on the
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL). Windshield Washer Fluid Low
Indicator
This light will turn on to
indicate the windshield
washer fluid is low.
Wait To Start Light — Diesel
Engines Only The Wait To Start Light will
turn on when the ignition key
is first turned to the ON/RUN posi-
tion. Wait until the Wait To Start
Light turns OFF to start the engine.
(Refer to “Starting Procedures” in
“Starting And Operating” for further
information). Water In Fuel Indicator Light —
Diesel Engines Only
Indicates there is water de-
tected in the fuel filter. If
this light remains on, DO
NOT start the vehicle be-
fore you drain the water from the fuel
filter to prevent engine damage. Refer
to “Maintenance Procedures/ Drain-
ing Fuel/Water Separator Filter” in
“Maintaining Your Vehicle” for water
drain procedure.
EVIC RED TELLTALE
LIGHTS
This area will show reconfigurable red
telltales. These telltales include:
Door Ajar
This 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

Before setting out on a trip, practice
turning, stopping and backing the
trailer in an area away from heavy
traffic.
Automatic Transmission
The DRIVE gear can be selected when
towing. However, if frequent shifting
occurs while in DRIVE, use the Elec-
tronic Range Select (ERS) shift con-
trol to select a lower gear range.
NOTE: Using a lower gear range
while operating the vehicle under
heavy loading conditions will im-
prove performance and extend
transmission life by reducing ex-
cessive shifting and heat build up.
This action will also provide better
engine braking.
If you REGULARLY tow a trailer for
more than 45 minutes of continuous
operation, then change the transmis-
sion fluid and filter as specified for
"police, taxi, fleet, or frequent trailer
towing." Refer to the “Maintenance
Schedule” for the proper maintenance
intervals. Electronic Speed Control (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
Do not use in hilly terrain or with
heavy loads.
When using the speed control, if you experience speed drops greater
than 16 km/h, disengage until you
can get back to cruising speed.
Use speed control in flat terrain and with light loads to maximize fuel
efficiency.
Cooling System
To reduce potential for engine and
transmission overheating, take the
following actions:
City Driving
When stopped for short periods, shift
the transmission into NEUTRAL and
increase engine idle speed.
Highway Driving
Reduce speed.
Air Conditioning
Turn off temporarily.

Engine Air Cleaner Filter
Selection
The quality of replacement engine air
cleaner filters varies considerably.
Only high quality filters should be
used to assure most efficient service.
LANCIA engine air cleaner filters are
a high quality filter and are recom-
mended.
INTERVENTION
REGENERATION
STRATEGY – 2.8L DIESEL
ENGINE
This vehicle is equipped with a state-
of-the-art engine and exhaust system
containing a diesel particulate filter.
The engine and exhaust after-
treatment system work together to
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 Panel” 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 seep
into 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
reduce 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.

SCHEDULE – DIESEL
ENGINE
To help you have the best driving
experience possible, the manufacturer
has identified the specific vehicle
maintenance service intervals that are
required to keep your vehicle operat-
ing properly and safely.
The manufacturer recommends that
these maintenance intervals be per-
formed at your selling dealer. The
technicians at your dealership know
your vehicle best, and have access to
factory trained information, genuine
LANCIA parts, and specially designed
electronic and mechanical tools that
can help prevent future costly repairs. The maintenance intervals shown
should be performed as indicated in
this section.
NOTE: Under no circumstances
should oil change intervals exceed
25,000 km or 12 months, which-
ever comes first.
CAUTION!
Failure to perform the required
maintenance items may result in
damage to the vehicle.
Required Maintenance Intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Schedules
on the following pages for the re-
quired maintenance intervals.
