2015 Lancia Ypsilon gearbox

WARNING
Depress the clutch pedal fully to
change gear correctly. It is therefore
essential that there is nothing under the
pedals: make sure the mats are lying flat and
do not get in the way of the pedals.
Do not drive with your hand resting on
the gear lever as the force exerted,
even if slight, could lead over time to
premature wear of the gearbox internal
components.

USING THE GEARBOX
To engage the gears, fully depress the clutch pedal
and put the gear lever into the required position
(the diagram is shown on the knob fig. 113).
For 0.9 TwinAir 85 HP and 1.2 8V 69 HP
versions, to engage reverse R from neutral, lift the
ring A fig. 113 and shift the lever to the right
and back.
For 1.3 16V MultiJet version: to engage reverse R
from neutral position, shift the lever to the right
and then back.
IMPORTANT Reverse can only be engaged when
the car is completely stationary. With the engine
running, wait for at least 2 seconds with the clutch
pedal fully pressed before engaging reverse to
prevent damage to the gears and grating.

IN AN EMERGENCY
In an emergency we recommend that you call the free-phone number found on the Warranty
Booklet. It is also possible to go to the www.lancia.com website to find the closest Lancia
Dealership.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Go to a Lancia Dealership immediately if
instrument panel warning light
remains on
constantly.
JUMP STARTING
If the battery is flat, the engine may be started
using an auxiliary battery with the same capacity
or a little higher than the flat one.To start the vehicle, proceed as follows:
❒connect the positive terminals (sign + near the
terminal) of the two batteries with a jump lead
fig. 114;
❒with a second lead, connect the negative
terminal – of the auxiliary battery to an
earthing point
on the engine or the gearbox of
the car to be started;
❒start the engine;
❒when the engine has been started, remove the
leads reversing the order above.
For versions with Start&Stop system, in case of
starting by auxiliary battery, refer to the
paragraph “Start&Stop system” in the chapter
“Getting to know your car”.
If after a few attempts the engine does not start,
do not persist but contact a Lancia Dealership.
IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the negative
terminals of the two batteries: sparks could ignite
explosive gas released from the battery. If the
auxiliary battery is installed on another car,
prevent accidental contact between metallic parts
of the two cars.

CHECKING FLUID LEVELS
WARNING
Never smoke while working in the
engine compartment: gas and
inflammable vapours may be present, with the
risk of fire.
WARNING
Be very careful when working in the
engine compartment when the engine
is hot: you may get burned. Remember that
the fan may start up if the engine is hot: this
could injure you. Scarves, ties and other loose
clothing might be pulled by moving parts.
Be careful, when topping up, and take
care not to mix up the various types
of fluids: they are all incompatible with
one another and could seriously damage the
car.
