WARNING
Give the booklet to the technicians
who will be handling the tyre that
was treated using the Fix&Go kit.
WARNING
In the event of a puncture caused by
foreign bodies, the kit may be used to
repair tyres showing damage on the track or
shoulder up to max 4 mm diameter. Holes
and damage on the tyre side walls cannot be
repaired. Do not attempt to use the Fix&Go
kit if the tyre was damaged as a result of
being used when underinflated.
WARNING
If the wheel rim has been damaged
(bent so as to cause pressure loss), the
wheel may not be repaired. Do not remove
the foreign body (screws or nails) from the
tyre.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The sealing fluid of the quick tyre repair kit is
effective at external temperatures of between
-20°C and +50°C.

IMPORTANT To get a more precise reading, it is
recommended to check the value with compressor
off.
❒If the pressure does not reach at least 1.5 bar in
5 minutes, switch the compressor off and
disconnect the filling pipe B from the tyre valve,
then remove the plug H;
❒move the car of about 10 m, to distribute the
sealant inside the tyre, then inflate again;
IMPORTANT If after this operation it is still
impossible, after 5 minutes, to reach at least 1.5
bar, do not start driving since the tyre is
excessively damaged and the Fix&Go kit cannot
guarantee proper hold. In this case, go to a Lancia
Dealership.

❒if the tyre reaches the pressure specified, start
driving immediately;
❒after driving for about 10 minutes stop, operate
the handbrake and check the tyre pressure
again.
WARNING
Apply the adhesive label where it can
be easily seen by the driver as a
reminder that the tyre has been treated with
the Fix&Go kit. Drive carefully, particularly
on bends. Do not exceed 80 km/h. Do not
accelerate or brake suddenly.
WARNING
If pressure has fallen below 1.5 bar,
do not drive any further: the Fix&Go
kit cannot guarantee the correct hold
because the tyre is too damaged, contact a
Lancia Dealership. If instead a pressure
value of at least 1.5 bar is detected, restore
the correct pressure (with the engine
running and the handbrake engaged),
resume driving and drive with care to the
nearest Lancia Dealership.

FOR CHECKING AND RESTORING
PRESSURE ONLY
The compressor may also be used for checking
and possibly restoring tyre pressure.
Proceed as follows:
❒If the spray bottle A fig. 128 is connected to the
compressor, you need to press the release button
L to remove it;
❒connect the pipe to the tyre valve;
❒check the pressure on the pressure gauge;
❒if the value of the pressure is too low, fit the
electric plug in the cigar-lighter socket and start
the compressor.IMPORTANT To adjust the possible overpressure
of the tyre, press the air relief button M.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULED SERVICINGCorrect servicing is essential in guaranteeing a
long life for the car under the best conditions.
Lancia has prepared a series of checks and service
operations to be carried out every 30,000
kilometres (for petrol versions) or every 35,000
kilometres (for diesel versions).
Check the items on the Scheduled Servicing Plan
(e.g. periodically check level of liquids, tyre
pressure, etc.) before 30,000/35,000 km and
between these services deadlines.
Scheduled Services are offered by all Lancia
Dealerships according to a set time schedule. If,
during each operation, in addition to the ones
scheduled, the need arises for further
replacements or repairs, these may be carried out
only with the explicit agreement of the Customer.
If your car is used frequently for towing, the
interval between one service operation and the
next should be reduced.WARNING
At 2000 km from the next service operation the
display will show a message.
The Scheduled Services are set out by the
Manufacturer. Failure to have them carried out
may invalidate the warranty.
It is advisable to inform the Lancia Dealership of
any small operating irregularities without waiting
for the next service.
