2015 Lancia Ypsilon service

Never use a fast battery-charger to start
the engine as this could damage the
electronic systems of your car,
particularly the ignition and fuel supply
control units.
WARNING
This procedure must be performed by
expert personnel because incorrect
actions could cause electrical discharge of
considerable intensity. Furthermore, battery
fluid is poisonous and corrosive: avoid
contact with skin and eyes. Keep naked
flames and lighted cigarettes away from the
battery and do not cause sparks.
BUMP STARTING
Never jump start the engine by pushing, towing or
coasting downhill.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake servo and
electrical power steering system are not active
until the engine is started. A much greater effort
will therefore be required to use the brake pedal or
turn the steering wheel.
REPLACING A WHEEL
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The car is equipped with the “Fix&Go Automatic
Kit”: see the paragraph “Fix&Go Automatic
Kit” for how to use this device.
As an alternative to the “Fix&Go Automatic Kit”
the car may be equipped with a space-saver
wheel: see the instructions on the following pages
for changing the tyre.
WARNING
The space-saver wheel (for versions/
markets where provided) is specific
to your car, do not use it on other models, or
use the space-saver wheel of other models
on your car. The space-saver wheel must
only be used in case of emergency. It must
only be used for the distance necessary
to reach a service point and the car speed
must not exceed 80 km/h. The space-saver
wheel has an orange sticker that summarises
the main cautions for use and limitations.
Never remove or cover the label. The
following information is provided in four
languages on the label: "Important! For
temporary use only! 80 km/h max! Replace
with a standard tyre as soon as possible.
Never cover this indication." Never apply a
hub cap on a space-saver wheel.

SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is essential in guaranteeing a long
life for the car under the best conditions.
For this reason, Lancia has planned a series of
checks and services at fixed distance intervals and,
for versions/markets, where provided, at fixed
time intervals, as described in the Scheduled
Servicing Plan.
Regardless of the above, it is always necessary to
carefully follow the instructions in the Scheduled
Servicing Plan (e.g. periodically check level of
liquids, tyre pressure, etc.).
Scheduled Servicing is offered by all Lancia
Dealerships according to fixed time or kilometres/
miles intervals. 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 your explicit agreement. If
your car is used frequently for towing, the interval
between one service operation and the next should
be reduced.WARNING
The Scheduled Servicing intervals are set out by the
Manufacturer. Failure to comply with the schedule
may invalidate the warranty.
It is advisable to inform a Lancia Dealership of any
small operating irregularities without waiting for
the next service.
For versions equipped with specific fuel supply
and/or trim level (e.g. LPG, Natural Power,
automatic transmission), in addition to what is
described in the following Scheduled Servicing Plan,
refer to the relevant additional items in the
dedicated supplements.

FCA has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant
improvement of its production processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly "eco-
compatible". To grant customers the best possible service in terms of respecting environmental laws and
in response to European Directive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of their life, FCA is
offering its customers the chance to hand over their vehicle 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.
To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, contact one of our dealerships if you
are purchasing another vehicle or an FCA-authorised collection and scrapping centre. These centres
have been carefully chosen to offer high quality service for the collection, treatment and recycling of
vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from an FCA
dealership or by calling the number in the Warranty Booklet or by consulting the websites of the various
FCA brands.
