2014 Lancia Voyager fuel

CAUTION!
To prevent damage to the starter,
DO NOT crank the engine for more
than 15 second intervals at one
time. Wait 10 to 15 seconds before
trying again.
4. After the engine starts, allow it to
idle for approximately 30 seconds be-
fore driving. This allows oil to circu-
late and lubricate the turbocharger. Starting And Operating Cautions
– Diesel Engine
WARNING!
NEVER pour fuel or other flam-
mable liquid into the air inlet open-
ing in an attempt to start the ve-
hicle. This could result in a flash
fire causing serious personal injury.
Running a cold engine at high speeds during driving or idling may
damage engine components.
Before turning off your turbo diesel engine, always allow the engine to
return to normal idle speed and run
for several seconds. This assures proper lubrication of the turbo-
charger. This is particularly neces-
sary after any period of hard driv-
ing.
Turbocharger Cool Down
NOTE: Letting the engine idle af-
ter extended operation allows the
turbine housing to cool to normal
operating temperature.
The following chart should be used as
a guide in determining the amount of
engine idle time required to suffi-
ciently cool down the turbocharger
before shut down, depending upon
the type of driving and the amount of
cargo.

CAUTION!
Towing the vehicle, coasting, or
driving for any other reason with
the transmission in NEUTRAL can
cause severe transmission damage.
Refer to “Recreational Towing” in
“Starting And Operating” and
“Towing A Disabled Vehicle” in
“What To Do In Emergencies” for
further information.
DRIVE (D)
This range should be used for most
city and highway driving. It provides
the smoothest upshifts and down-
shifts, and the best fuel economy. The
transmission automatically upshifts
through all forward gears. The
DRIVE position provides optimum
driving characteristics under all nor-
mal operating conditions.
When frequent transmission shifting
occurs (such as when operating the
vehicle under heavy loading condi-
tions, in hilly terrain, traveling into
strong head winds, or while towing
heavy trailers), use the ElectronicRange Select (ERS) shift control (de-
scribed below) to select a lower gear
range. Under these conditions, using a
lower gear range will improve perfor-
mance and extend transmission life
by reducing excessive shifting and
heat buildup.
During cold temperatures, transmis-
sion operation may be modified de-
pending on engine and transmission
temperature as well as vehicle speed.
This feature improves warm up time
of the engine and transmission to
achieve maximum efficiency. Engage-
ment of the torque converter clutch is
inhibited until the transmission fluid
is warm (refer to the “Note” under
“Torque Converter Clutch” in this
section). During extremely cold tem-
peratures (-27°C or below), operation
may briefly be limited to third gear
only. Normal operation will resume
once the transmission temperature
has risen to a suitable level.
Transmission Limp Home Mode
Transmission function is monitored
electronically for abnormal condi-
tions. If a condition is detected thatcould result in transmission damage,
Transmission Limp Home Mode is ac-
tivated. In this mode, the transmis-
sion remains in third gear regardless
of which forward gear is selected.
PARK, REVERSE, and NEUTRAL
will continue to operate. The Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL) may
be illuminated. Limp Home Mode al-
lows the vehicle to be driven to an
authorized dealer for service without
damaging the transmission.
In the event of a momentary problem,
the transmission can be reset to regain
all forward gears by performing the
following steps:
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Shift the transmission into PARK.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF position.
4. Wait approximately 10 seconds.
5. Restart the engine.
6. Shift into the desired gear range. If
the problem is no longer detected, the
transmission will return to normal op-
eration.
240

The engine coolant has reached anadequate temperature.
The vehicle speed is sufficiently high.
The driver is not heavily pressing the accelerator.
Torque Converter Clutch
A feature designed to improve fuel
economy has been included in the au-
tomatic transmission on your vehicle.
A clutch within the torque converter
engages automatically at calibrated
speeds. This may result in a slightly
different feeling or response during
normal operation in the upper gears.
When the vehicle speed drops or dur-
ing some accelerations, the clutch au-
tomatically disengages.
NOTE: The torque converter
clutch will not engage until the
transmission fluid and engine
coolant are warm [usually after 2
to 5 km of driving]. Because the
engine speed is higher when the torque converter clutch is not en-
gaged, it may seem as if the trans-
mission is not shifting into Over-
drive when cold. This is normal.
Using the Electronic Range Select
(ERS) shift control, when the
transmission is sufficiently warm,
will demonstrate that the trans-
mission is able to shift into and out
of Overdrive.
DRIVING ON SLIPPERY
SURFACES
ACCELERATION
Rapid acceleration on snow covered,
wet, or other slippery surfaces may
cause the driving wheels to pull errati-
cally to the right or left. This phenom-
enon occurs when there is a difference
in the surface traction under the front
(driving) wheels.
WARNING!
Rapid acceleration on slippery sur-
faces is dangerous. Unequal trac-
tion can cause sudden pulling of the
front wheels. You could lose control
of the vehicle and possibly have a
collision. Accelerate slowly and
carefully whenever there is likely to
be poor traction (ice, snow, wet,
mud, loose sand, etc.).
TRACTION
When driving on wet or slushy roads,
it is possible for a layer of water to
build up between the tire and road
surface. This is known as hydroplan-
ing and may cause partial or complete
loss of vehicle control and stopping
ability. To reduce this possibility, the
following precautions should be ob-
served:
1. Slow down during rainstorms or
when roads are slushy.
2. Slow down if the road has standing
water or puddles.
242

WARNING!(Continued)
Over-inflation reduces a tire'sability to cushion shock. Objects
on the road and chuckholes can
cause damage that result in tire
failure.
Over-inflated or under-inflated tires can affect vehicle handling
and can fail suddenly, resulting in
loss of vehicle control.
Unequal tire pressures can cause steering problems. You could lose
control of your vehicle.
Unequal tire pressures from one side of the vehicle to the other can
cause the vehicle to drift to the
right or left.
Always drive with each tire in- flated to the recommended cold
tire inflation pressure.
Economy
Improper inflation pressures can
cause uneven wear patterns to de-
velop across the tire tread. These ab-
normal wear patterns will reduce
tread life resulting in a need for earlier
tire replacement. Under-inflation also increases tire rolling resistance result-
ing in higher fuel consumption.
Ride Comfort And Vehicle
Stability
Proper tire inflation contributes to a
comfortable ride. Over-inflation pro-
duces a jarring and uncomfortable
ride. Both under-inflation and over-
inflation affect the stability of the ve-
hicle and can produce a feeling of
sluggish response or over responsive-
ness in the steering.
NOTE:
Unequal tire pressures from side
to side may cause erratic and
unpredictable steering re-
sponse.
Unequal tire pressure from side to side may cause the vehicle to
drift left or right.
Tire Inflation Pressures
The proper cold tire inflation pressure
is listed on the driver's side “B” Pillar
or rear edge of the driver's side door. At least once a month:
Check and adjust tire pressure with
a good quality pocket-type pressure
gauge. Do not make a visual judge-
ment when determining proper in-
flation. Tires may look properly in-
flated even when they are under-
inflated.
Inspect tires for signs of tire wear or visible damage.
CAUTION!
After inspecting or adjusting the
tire pressure, always reinstall the
valve stem cap. This will prevent
moisture and dirt from entering the
valve stem, which could damage
the valve stem.
Inflation pressures specified on the
placard are always “cold tire inflation
pressure”. Cold tire inflation pressure
is defined as the tire pressure after the
vehicle has not been driven for at least
three hours, or driven less than
1.6 km after a three hour period. The
cold tire inflation pressure must not

NOTE:
The TPMS is not intended to re-place normal tire care and
maintenance, or to provide
warning of a tire failure or con-
dition.
The TPMS should not be used as a tire pressure gauge while ad-
justing your tire pressure.
Driving on a significantly under- inflated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Under-inflation also re-
duces fuel efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the ve-
hicle’s handling and stopping
ability.
The TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it
is the driver's responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure,
using an accurate tire pressure
gage, even if under-inflation has
not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring Telltale Light.” Seasonal temperature changes
will affect tire pressure, and the
TPMS will monitor the actual
tire pressure in the tire.
BASE SYSTEM
The TPMS uses wireless technology
with wheel rim mounted electronic
sensors to monitor tire pressure levels.
Sensors, mounted to each wheel as
part of the valve stem, transmit tire
pressure readings to the Receiver
Module.
NOTE: It is particularly impor-
tant for you to check the tire pres-
sure in all of your tires regularly
and to maintain the proper pres-
sure.
The Basic TPMS consists of the fol-
lowing components:
Receiver Module
Four Tire Pressure MonitoringSensors
TPMS Telltale Warning Light Tire Pressure Monitoring Low
Tire Pressure Warnings
The “Tire Pressure Moni-
toring Telltale Light” will
illuminate in the instru-
ment cluster, an “Inflate
Tire to XX” message and a "TIRE
LOW PRESSURE" message will dis-
play in the instrument cluster, and an
audible chime will be activated when
one or more of the four active road tire
pressures are low. The recommended
cold placard pressure inflation value
is the pressure value displayed in the
"Inflate Tire to XX" message dis-
played in the EVIC. Should this occur,
you should stop as soon as possible,
check the inflation pressure of each
tire on your vehicle, and inflate each
tire to the vehicle's recommended cold
tire pressure value (located on the
placard on the driver's-side B-Pillar).
The system will automatically update
and the “Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light” will extinguish once
the updated tire pressures have been
received.
268

will flash on and off for 75 seconds
and then remain on solid. In addition,
the EVIC will display a “SERVICE
TPM SYSTEM” message for a mini-
mum of five seconds and then display
dashes (- -) in place of the pressure
value.
4. For each subsequent ignition
switch cycle, a chime will sound, the
“Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light” will flash on and off for 75
seconds and then remain on solid, and
the EVIC will display a “SERVICE
TPM SYSTEM” message for a mini-
mum of five seconds and then display
dashes (- -) in place of the pressure
value.
5. Once you repair or replace the
original road tire, and reinstall it on
the vehicle in place of the compact
spare, the TPMS will update auto-
matically. In addition, the “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring Telltale Light” will
turn off and the graphic in the EVIC
will display a new pressure value in-
stead of dashes (- -), as long no tirepressure is below the low pressure
warning limit in any of the four active
road tires.
NOTE: The vehicle may need to
be driven for up to 20 minutes
above 24 km/h in order for the
TPMS to receive this information.
TPMS DEACTIVATION AND
REACTIVATION
The TPMS can be deactivated if re-
placing all four wheel and tire assem-
blies (road tires) with wheel and tire
assemblies that do not have TPMS
Sensors, such as when installing win-
ter wheel and tire assemblies on your
vehicle.
To deactivate the TPMS, first, replace
all four wheel and tire assemblies
(road tires) with those not equipped
with TPM Sensors. Then, drive the
vehicle for at least 20 minutes above
24 km/h. The TPMS will chime and
the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light” will flash on and off for 75
seconds and then remain on solid. In
addition, the Electronic Vehicle Infor-
mation Center (EVIC) will display a
“SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message,and the graphic will display “- -“ in
place of four tire pressure values.
Upon the next ignition switch cycle,
the TPMS will no longer chime or turn
on the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Tell-
tale Light” or display the text message
in the EVIC. However, the graphic
will still display “- -.“
To reactivate the TPMS, first, replace
all four wheel and tire assemblies
(road tires) with those equipped with
TPM Sensors. Then, drive the vehicle
for up to 20 minutes above 24 km/h.
The TPMS will chime and the “Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light”
will flash on and off for 75 seconds,
the EVIC will display a “SERVICE
TPM SYSTEM” message, and the
graphic will display tire pressure val-
ues to show that the TPMS is receiving
sensor data.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
— GASOLINE ENGINE
All engines are designed to meet all
emissions regulations and provide ex-
cellent fuel economy and performance
272

when using high quality unleaded
gasoline with a minimum research oc-
tane rating (RON) of 91.
Light spark knock at low engine
speeds is not harmful to your engine.
However, continued heavy spark
knock at high speeds can cause dam-
age and immediate service is required.
Poor quality gasoline can cause prob-
lems such as hard starting, stalling,
and hesitations. If you experience
these symptoms, try another brand of
gasoline before considering service for
the vehicle.
Over 40 automobile manufacturer's
world wide have issued and endorsed
consistent gasoline specifications (the
World Wide Fuel Charter, WWFC)
which define fuel properties necessary
to deliver enhanced emissions, perfor-
mance, and durability for your ve-
hicle. The manufacturer recommends
the use of gasoline that meets the
WWFC specifications if they are
available.METHANOL
(Methyl or Wood Alcohol) is used in a
variety of concentrations when
blended with unleaded gasoline. You
may find fuels containing 3% or more
methanol along with other alcohols
called cosolvents. Problems that re-
sult from using methanol/gasoline or
E-85 Ethanol blends are not the re-
sponsibility of the manufacturer.
While MTBE is an oxygenate made
from Methanol, it does not have the
negative effects of Methanol.
CAUTION!
Do not use gasolines containing
Methanol. Use of these blends may
result in starting and drivability
problems and may damage critical
fuel system components.
ETHANOL
The manufacturer recommends that
your vehicle be operated on fuel con-
taining no more than 10% ethanol.
Purchasing your fuel from a reputablesupplier may reduce the risk of ex-
ceeding this 10% limit and/or of re-
ceiving fuel with abnormal properties.
It should also be noted that an in-
crease in fuel consumption should be
expected when using ethanol-blended
fuels, due to the lower energy content
of ethanol.
Problems that result from using
methanol/gasoline or E-85 Ethanol
blends are not the responsibility of the
manufacturer. While MTBE is an oxy-
genate made from Methanol, it does
not have the negative effects of
Methanol.
CAUTION!
Use of fuel with Ethanol content
higher than 10% may result in en-
gine malfunction, starting and op-
erating difficulties, and materials
degradation. These adverse effects
could result in permanent damage
to your vehicle.
273

CLEAN AIR GASOLINE
Many gasolines are now being
blended that contribute to cleaner air,
especially in those areas where air
pollution levels are high. These new
blends provide a cleaner burning fuel
and some are referred to as “reformu-
lated gasoline.”
The manufacturer supports these ef-
forts toward cleaner air. You can help
by using these blends as they become
available.
MMT IN GASOLINE
MMT is a manganese containing me-
tallic additive that is blended into
some gasoline to increase octane.
Gasoline blended with MMT provides
no performance advantage beyond
gasoline of the same octane number
without MMT. Gasoline blended with
MMT reduces spark plug life and re-
duces emission system performance in
some vehicles. The manufacturer rec-
ommends that gasoline without MMT
be used in your vehicle. The MMT
content of gasoline may not be indi-
cated on the gasoline pump; therefore,you should ask your gasoline retailer
whether or not his/her gasoline con-
tains MMT.
MATERIALS ADDED TO
FUEL
Besides using unleaded gasoline with
the proper octane rating, gasolines
that contain detergents, corrosion and
stability additives are recommended.
Using gasolines that have these addi-
tives will help improve fuel economy,
reduce emissions, and maintain ve-
hicle performance.
Indiscriminate use of fuel system
cleaning agents should be avoided.
Many of these materials intended for
gum and varnish removal may con-
tain active solvents or similar ingredi-
ents. These can harm fuel system gas-
ket and diaphragm materials.
WARNING!
Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust
gases is deadly. Follow the precau-
tions below to prevent carbon mon-
oxide poisoning:
Do not inhale exhaust gases. They
contain carbon monoxide, a col-
orless and odorless gas which can
kill. Never run the engine in a
closed area, such as a garage, and
never sit in a parked vehicle with
the engine running for an ex-
tended period of time. If the ve-
hicle is stopped in an open area
with the engine running for more
than a short period, adjust the
ventilation system to force fresh,
outside air into the vehicle.
Guard against carbon monoxide with proper maintenance. Have
the exhaust system inspected ev-
ery time the vehicle is raised.
Have any abnormal conditions
repaired promptly. Until re-
paired, drive with all side win-
dows fully open.
