IN AN EMERGENCY

The driving characteristics of the car may
change when a space-saver wheel is fitted.
Avoid violent acceleration and braking,
abrupt steering and fast cornering. The total life
of a space-saver wheel is approximately 3,000 km,
after which it must be replaced by another wheel
of the same type. Never install a standard tyre on
a rim designed for use as a space-saver wheel. Have
the wheel repaired and refitted as soon as possi-
ble. Using two or more space-saver wheels at the
same time is forbidden. Do not apply grease to the
bolt threads before assembly: they might sponta-
neously unscrew.

Incorrect installation of electric and elec-
tronic devices may cause severe damage to
your car. Go to a Lancia Dealership if you
want to install accessories (anti-theft system, ra-
dio phone, etc.): they will suggest the most suitable
devices and advise you if a higher capacity battery
needs to be installed.Batteries contain substances that can be very
dangerous for the environment. It is advis-
able to have the battery changed by a Lancia
Dealership where it will be disposed of according
to the law.
If the vehicle must remain unused for a long
time at very low temperature, remove the bat-
tery and carry it to a warm place, in order to
avoid freezing.When you must perform any operation on the
battery or near it, always protect your eyes
with special goggles.
