Fuel reserve (amber)When the key is turned to MAR, the warning
light switches on but it s hould switch off after
a few s econds. The warning light s witches on
when about 5 to 7 litre s of fuel are left in the tank.
The dis play shows the dedicated message.
IMPORTANT The warning light will blink to indicate a sys-
tem failure. G o to a Lancia Dealers hip to have the system
checked.
K
The driving speed must always be suitable
for traffic and weather conditions and the
driver must always comply with the High-
way Code. The engine can also be switched off if the
DPF warning light is on; nevertheless, repeated in-
terruptions of the regeneration process could cause
an early deterioration of engine oil. For this reason,
always wait until the warning light switches off be-
fore stopping the engine as described above. It is not
advisable to complete DPF regeneration with the
car stationary.If the warning light remains on or comes on whilst driving,
it means that the injection system is not working proper-
l y ; in particular, if the warning light come s on cons tant-
l y , this indicates a malfunction in the s upply/ignition sys-
tem that could caus e excessive exhaust emissions , a pos-
s ible loss of performance, poor driveabilit y and high fuel
cons umption. On some vers ions the dis play s hows the ded-
icated message. Under the se conditions , you may contin-
ue travelling at a moderate speed without demanding ex-
cessive effort from the engine. Prolonged u se of the car
with the warning light on con stantly may cau se damage.
G o to a Lancia Dealer ship as soon as possible.
The warning light s witches off if the malfunction di sap-
pears , but it is still stor

ed by the system.
EOBD/injection sy stem failure (amber)
Under normal condition s, when the ignition ke y
i s turned to MAR, the warning light switches on,
but should switch off as s oon as the engine i s s tart-
ed.
U
Go to a Lancia Dealership as soon as possi-
ble if U warning light either does not light
up when the key is turned to MAR or if while
travelling the warning light comes on either con-
stantly or flashing (on some versions along with a
message in the display). The operation of the U
warning light may be checked by the traffic con-
trol authorities using specific devices. Comply with
the laws and regulations of the country where you
are driving.

The presence of water in the supply circuit may
cause severe damage to the injection system and
irregular engine operation. If
cwarning light
lights up (on some versions with the message on the dis-
play), go to a Lancia Dealership as soon as possible
to have the system bled. Water may have entered the
tank if this appears immediately after refuelling: if this
happens, switch the engine off immediately and con-
tact a Lancia Dealership.
ABS failure (amber)
When the key is turned to MAR, the warning
light switches on but it s hould switch off after
a few s econds. The warning light will light up
when the system i s either not working or not available.
In this case the braking system will work as normal, but
without the extra performance offered b y the ABS .
Drive carefully and go to a Lancia Dealer ship as s oon as
possible.

TRIP COMPUTER
GENERAL INFORMATION
The Trip computer is used to dis play information on car
operation when the ke y i s turned to MAR. This function
i s compos ed of separate trips , called “Trip A” and “Trip
B” which can monitor the entire mi ssion (journey) in a
reciprocally independent manner.
Both function s can be res et (reset means s tart of a new
journey ). “Trip A” is used to dis play the figures relat-
ing to:
– Range
– Trip dis tance
– Average cons umption
– Ins tantaneous consumption
– Average s peed
– Travel time (driving time).
– Trip A Res et
“Trip B” may be used to dis play the figures relating to:
– Dis tance travelled B
– Average cons umption B
– Average s peed B
– Trip time B (driving time).
– Trip B Res et N.B. “Trip B” ma
y be dis abled (s ee “Activating T
rip B”).
“Range” and “In stant cons umption” parameters cannot
be res et.

Range
This indicates the approximate di stance which can be trav-
elled with the amount of fuel pre sent in the tank. The di s-
play will s how the reading ‘----’ when the following events
take place:
– range value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
– in cas e of car parked with engine running for an ex-
tended period.
IMPORTANT The range can be affected b y s everal fac-
tors : driving s ty le (s ee “Driving s ty le” in the “S tarting and
driving” chapter), ty pe of route (motorway , towns and
cities , mountain roads , etc.), conditions of use (load, ty re
pressures , etc.). Trip planning mus t therefore take the
above into account.
