WARNING!(Continued)
Take care not to allow the con-tents of TIREFIT to come in con-
tact with hair, eyes, or clothing.
TIREFIT is harmful if inhaled,
swallowed, or absorbed through
the skin: It causes skin, eye, and
respiratory irritation. Flush im-
mediately with plenty of water if
there is any contact with eyes or
skin. Change clothing as soon as
possible, if there is any contact
with clothing.
TIREFIT Sealant solution con- tains latex. In case of allergic re-
action or rash, consult a physi-
cian immediately. Keep TIREFIT
out of reach of children. If swal-
lowed, rinse mouth immediately
with plenty of water and drink
plenty of water. Do not induce
vomiting! Consult a physician
immediately.
Use the gloves provided in the Accessory Storage Compartment
(located on the bottom of the air
pump) when operating the TIRE-
FIT kit.
SEALING A TIRE WITH
TIREFIT
(A) Whenever You Stop To Use
TIREFIT:
1. Pull over to a safe location and
turn on the vehicle’s Hazard Warning
flashers.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the
wheel with the deflated tire) is in a
position that is near to the ground.
This will allow the TIREFIT Hoses
(6) and (7) to reach the valve stem
and keep the TIREFIT kit flat on the
ground. This will provide the best po-
sitioning of the kit when injecting the
sealant into the deflated tire and run-
ning the air pump. Move the vehicle as
necessary to place the valve stem in
this position before proceeding.
3. Place the transmission in PARK
(auto transmission) or in Gear
(manual transmission) and turn Off
the ignition.
4. Set the parking brake. (B) Setting Up To Use TIREFIT:
1. Turn the Mode Select Knob (5) to
the Sealant Mode position.
2. Uncoil the Sealant Hose (6) and
then remove the cap from the fitting
at the end of the hose.
3. Place the TIREFIT kit flat on the
ground next to the deflated tire.
4. Remove the cap from the valve
stem and then screw the fitting at the
end of the Sealant Hose (6) onto the
valve stem.
5. Uncoil the Power Plug (8) and in-
sert the plug into the vehicle’s 12 Volt
power outlet.
NOTE:
Do not remove foreign ob-
jects (e.g., screws or nails) from the
tire.
(C) Injecting TIREFIT Sealant
Into The Deflated Tire:
Always start the engine before turning ON the TIREFIT kit.

2. Remove the Speed Limit sticker
from the top of the Sealant Bottle (1)
and place the sticker on the instru-
ment panel.
3. Immediately disconnect the Seal-
ant Hose (6) from the valve stem,
reinstall the cap on the fitting at the
end of the hose, and place the TIRE-
FIT kit in the vehicle storage location.
Quickly proceed to (D) “Drive Ve-
hicle”.
CAUTION!
The metal end fitting from PowerPlug (8) may get hot after use, so
it should be handled carefully.
Failure to reinstall the cap on the fitting at the end of the Sealant
Hose (6) can result in sealant
contacting your skin, clothing,
and the vehicle’s interior. It can
also result in sealant contacting
internal TIREFIT kit components
which may cause permanent
damage to the kit. (D) Drive Vehicle:
Immediately after injecting sealant
and inflating the tire, drive the vehicle
8 km or 10 minutes to ensure distri-
bution of the TIREFIT Sealant within
the tire. Do not exceed 88 km/h.
WARNING!
TIREFIT is not a permanent flat
tire repair. Have the tire inspected
and repaired or replaced after using
TIREFIT. Do not exceed 88 km/h
until the tire is repaired or replaced.
Failure to follow this warning can
result in injuries that are serious or
fatal to you, your passengers, and
others around you.
(E) After Driving:
Pull over to a safe location. Refer to
“Whenever You Stop to Use TIRE-
FIT” before continuing.
1. Turn the Mode Select Knob (5) to
the Air Mode position.
2. Uncoil the power plug and insert
the plug into the vehicle's 12 Volt
power outlet. 3. Uncoil the Air Pump Hose (7)
(black in color) and screw the fitting
at the end of hose (7) onto the valve
stem.
4. Check the pressure in the tire by
reading the Pressure Gauge (3).
If tire pressure is less than 1.3 Bar,
the tire is too badly damaged. Do not
attempt to drive the vehicle further.
Call for assistance.
If the tire pressure is 1.3 Bar or
higher:
1. Press the Power Button (4) to turn
on TIREFIT and inflate the tire to the
pressure indicated on the tire and
loading information label on the
driver-side door opening.
NOTE: If the tire becomes over-
inflated, press the Deflation But-
ton to reduce the tire pressure to
the recommended inflation pres-
sure before continuing.
2. Disconnect the TIREFIT kit from
the valve stem, reinstall the cap on the
valve stem and unplug from 12 Volt
outlet.

Hose (6) aligns with the hose slot in
the front of the housing. Press the
bottle into the housing. An audible
click will be heard indicating the
bottle is locked into place.
6. Verify that the cap is installed on
the fitting at the end of the Sealant
Hose (6) and return the hose to its
storage area (located on the bottom of
the air pump).
7. Return the TIREFIT kit to its stor-
age location in the vehicle.

CAUTION!(Continued)
Car maintenance should be doneat 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 how-
ever carry out these operations if
you have no experience.
Your vehicle has been built with improved fluids that protect the
performance and durability of
your vehicle and also allow ex-
tended maintenance intervals. Do
not use chemical flushes in these
components as the chemicals can
damage your engine, transmis-
sion, power steering or air condi-
tioning. Such damage is not cov-
ered by the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty. If a flush is needed be-
cause of component malfunction,
use only the specified fluid for the
flushing procedure.
ENGINE OIL – GASOLINE
ENGINE
Checking Oil Level
To assure proper lubrication of your
vehicle's engine, the engine oil must
be maintained at the correct level.
The best time to check the engine oil
level is about five minutes after a fully
warmed up engine is shut off.
Checking the oil while the vehicle is
on level ground will improve the ac-
curacy of the oil level readings. Main-
tain the oil level in the SAFE level
range. Adding 0.95 Liter of oil when
the level is at the bottom of the SAFE
range will result in the level being at
the top of the SAFE range.
CAUTION!
Overfilling or underfilling the
crankcase will cause aeration or
loss of oil pressure. This could dam-
age your engine.

mended maintenance intervals for oil
and filter changes are followed.
MATERIALS ADDED TO
ENGINE OILS
Do not add supplemental materials,
other than leak detection dyes, to the
engine oil. Engine oil is an engineered
product, and its performance may be
impaired by supplemental additives.
DISPOSING OF USED
ENGINE OIL AND FILTERS
Care should be taken in disposing of
used engine oil and oil filters from
your vehicle. Used oil and oil filters,
indiscriminately discarded, can pres-
ent a problem to the environment.
Contact your local authorized dealer,
service station, or governmental
agency for advice on how and where
used oil and oil filters can be safely
discarded in your area.
ENGINE OIL FILTER
The engine oil filter should be re-
placed with a new filter at every oil
change.
Engine Oil Filter Selection
The manufacturer's engines have a
full-flow type disposable oil filter. Use
a filter of this type for replacement.
The quality of replacement filters var-
ies considerably. Only high-quality
filters should be used to assure most
efficient service. LANCIA engine oil
filters are high-quality oil filters and
are recommended.
