ARRANGEMENTS FOR
DEALING WITH THE
VEHICLE AT THE END OF
ITS LIFE
LANCIA has been committed for
many years to safeguarding the envi-
ronment through the constant im-
provement of its production processes
and manufacturing products that are
increasingly “eco-compatible”.
To give customers the best possible
service in terms of respecting environ-
mental laws and in response to Euro-
pean Directive 2000/53/EC govern-
ing vehicles at the end of their life,
LANCIA is offering its customers the
opportunity of handing over their ve-
hicle* at the end of its life without
incurring any additional costs.
The European Directive sets out that
when the vehicle is handed over the
last keeper or owner should not incur
any expenses as a result of it having a
zero or negative market value.In all European Union countries, until
1st January 2007, only vehicles regis-
tered after 1st July 2002 were col-
lected free of charge, while since 2007
collection has been free of charge irre-
spective of the year of registration as
long as the vehicle contains its basic
components (in particular, the engine
and bodywork) and has no additional
waste.
To hand your vehicle over at the end
of its life without extra cost, go to one
of our Dealerships or LANCIA-
authorized collection and scrapping
centres.
These centres have been carefully
chosen to offer high quality service for
the collection, treatment and recy-
cling of unused vehicles with respect
to the environment.
You can find further information on
these collection and scrapping centres
either from a LANCIA or LANCIA
Commercial Vehicle Dealership or by
calling the freephone number
00800 526242 00 or by going on the
LANCIA website.

SCHEDULE – GASOLINE
ENGINE
The Scheduled Maintenance services
listed in this manual must be done at
the times or mileages specified to pro-
tect your vehicle warranty and ensure
the best vehicle performance and reli-
ability. More frequent maintenance
may be needed for vehicles in severe
operating conditions, such as dusty ar-
eas and very short trip driving. Inspec-
tion and service should also be done
anytime a malfunction is suspected.
The oil change indicator system will
remind you that it is time to take your
vehicle in for scheduled maintenance.
On Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC) equipped vehicles “Oil
Change Required” will be displayed
in the EVIC and a single chime will
sound, indicating that an oil change is
necessary.
NOTE:

The oil change indicator message
will not monitor the time since the
last oil change. Change your ve-
hicles oil if it has been 12 months
since your last oil change even if
the oil change indicator message
is NOT illuminated.
Under no circumstances shouldoil change intervals exceed
12,000 km or 12 months, which-
ever comes first.
Rotate the tires at the first sign of irregular wear.
Your authorized dealer will reset the
oil change indicator message after
completing the scheduled oil change.
CAUTION!
Failure to perform the required
maintenance items may result in
damage to the vehicle.
