150KNOWING YOUR CAR
REFUELLING THE CAR
OPERATION AT LOW TEMPERATURES
If the outside temperature is very low, dies el thickens due
to the formation of paraffin clot s with cons equent defec-
tive operation of the fuel s upply system.
In order to avoid the se problems , different ty pes of dies el
are dis tributed according to the s eason: summer ty pe, win-
ter ty pe and arctic ty pe (cold/mountain area s). If refu-
elling with dies el fuel whose specifications are not suitable
for the current temperature, it is advisable to mix
TUTELA DIE SEL ART additive in the proportions s hown
on the container. Pour the additive into the tank before
the dies el fuel.
When us ing or parking the vehicle for a long time in the
mountains or cold areas , it is advis able to refuel us ing lo-
cally available die sel fuel.
In this case, it is also advis able to keep the tank over 50%
full.
RADIO TRANS
MITTERS AND MOBILE PHONE S
Radio trans mitter equipment (vehicle mobile phone s, CB
radios , amateur radio etc.) cannot be u sed ins ide the car
unless a s eparate aerial i s mounted on the r
oof.
IMPORTANT The us e of such devices inside the passenger
compartment (without a separate aerial), may cause the
car’ s electronic systems to malfunction. This could com-
promis e safety in addition to cons tituting a potential haz-
ard for passengers .
In addition, tran smission and reception of the se devices
may be affected by the shielding effect of the vehicle body .
A s far as the us e of EC-approved mobile phone s i s con-
cerned (GSM, GPRS , UMTS ), follow the u sage ins truc-
tions pr
ovided b y the mobile phone manufacturer.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE
USEFUL ADVICE FOR EXTENDING THE LIFE OF
YOUR BATTERY
To avoid draining your battery and make it last longer,
observe the following instructions:
❍when you park the car, ensure the doors, tailgate and
bonnet are closed properly, to prevent any light from
remaining on inside the passenger compartment;
❍turn off the internal roof lights, although the car does
have an automatic system for switching off internal
lights;
❍do not leave devices (e.g. car radio, hazard warning
lights, etc.) switched on for a long time when the en-
gine is not running;
❍before performing any operation on the electrical sys-
tem, disconnect the negative battery cable;
❍battery termi
nals should always be perfectly tightened.
IMPORTANT If the charge level remains under 50% for
a long time, the battery is damaged by sulphation, re-
ducing its capacity and efficiency at start-up.The battery will also be more at risk of freezing (this can
happen as early as –10°C). In case of prolonged idling, re-
fer to the “Car inactivity” paragraph, in chapter “3”.
If, after purchasing your car, you decide to install electri-
cal accessories which require a permanent electric power
supply (alarm, etc.) or accessories which have a serious
impact on the electrical balance, contact a Lancia Deal-
ership: their qualifi
ed personnel will suggest the most suit-
able Lancia Lineaccessori devices and assess the overall
electric consumption, checking whether the car’s electri-
cal system can cope or whether a more powerful battery
is required.
Since some of these devices continue to consume electric-
ity even when the engine is off, they gradually run down
the battery.
