2017 Lancia Ypsilon tyre pressure

140)The information required by the
applicable law on chemicals for men's
health and environment protection and the
safe use of the sealing fluid is reported
on the packaging label. The respect of all
indications included on the label is
essential to ensure product safety and
effectiveness. Please be reminded to
carefully read the label before use. The
product user is responsible for any
damages caused by an improper use. The
sealing fluid has an expiry date. Replace
the bottle if the sealant has expired.
141)Put on the protective gloves provided
together with the quick tyre repair kit.
142)Apply the adhesive label where it can
be easily seen by the driver as a reminder
that the tyre has been treated with the
quick repair kit. Drive carefully, particularly
on bends. Do not exceed 80 km/h. Avoid
sudden acceleration or braking.
143)If the pressure has fallen below 1.8
bar, do not drive any further: the quick tyre
repair kit cannot guarantee the correct
hold because the tyre is too damaged.
Contact a Lancia Dealership.
144)Always indicate that the tyre was
repaired using the quick tyre repair kit. Give
the leaflet to the personnel charged with
handling the tyre treated with the tyre
repair kit.
WARNING
56)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.
WARNING
3)Dispose of the bottle and the sealant
liquid properly. Have them disposed of in
compliance with national and local
regulations.
4)Apply the adhesive label where it can be
easily seen by the driver as a reminder
that the tyre has been treated with the
quick repair kit. Drive carefully, particularly
on bends. Do not exceed 80 km/h. Avoid
sudden acceleration or braking.
EMERGENCY
STARTING
If the battery is flat, a jump starting can
be performed using the battery and
the cables of another vehicle, or using a
booster battery.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Do not use an auxiliary battery or any
other source of external supply with
a voltage above 12 V: the battery, the
starter, the alternator and the electrical
system of the vehicle could be
damaged.
Do not attempt jump starting if the
battery is frozen. The battery could
break and explode!
JUMP STARTING
145) 146)57) 58)
If the battery is flat, it is possible to start
the engine using an auxiliary battery
with the same capacity or a little higher
than the flat one.
Proceed as follows to start the engine
fig. 113:
connect the positive terminals (+
near the terminal) of the two batteries
with a jump lead;

rear window wiper blades.
Every 3,000 km, check and top up if
required: engine oil level.
For cars with 0.9 TwinAir engines:

level and top it up to the maximum level
if necessary.
DEMANDING USE OF THE
CAR
If the car is used mainly under one of
the following conditions:
towing a trailer or caravan;
dusty roads;
short, repeated journeys (less than
7-8 Km) at sub-zero outdoor
temperatures;
engine often idling or driving long
distances at low speeds or long periods
of inactivity;perform the following inspections more
frequently than shown on the
Scheduled Servicing Plan:
check front disc brake pad condition
and wear;
check cleanliness of bonnet and
luggage compartment locks,
cleanliness and lubrication of linkage;
visually inspect conditions of:
engine, gearbox, transmission, pipes
and hoses (exhaust/fuel system/brakes)
and rubber elements (gaiters/sleeves/
bushes, etc.);
check battery charge and battery
fluid level (electrolyte);
visually inspect conditions of the
accessory drive belts;

SERVICING AND CARE

WHEELS AND TYRES
165) 166) 167) 168) 169)
IMPORTANT NOTES
Take the following precautions to
prevent damage to the tyres:
avoid braking suddenly, racing starts
and violent impact against the curb,
potholes or other obstacles and driving
for extended periods on uneven road
surfaces;
periodically check that the tyres
have no cuts in the side wall, abnormal
swelling or irregular tread wear;
avoid travelling with the vehicle
overloaded. If a tyre is punctured, stop
immediately and change it;
tyres age even if they are not used
much. Cracks in the tread rubber
and at the sides are a sign of ageing. In
any case, if the tyres have been on
the car for over 6 years, they should be
checked by specialised personnel.
Also remember to check the
space-saver wheel very carefully (for
versions/markets, where provided);
alternate the tyres, between front
and rear, every 10-15 thousand
kilometres, keeping them on the same
side of the car so as not to reverse
the direction of rotation;
in the case of replacement, always
fit new tyres, avoiding those of
unknown origin;
if a tyre is changed, also change the
inflation valve.
avoid travelling with partially or
completely deflated tyres as this can
compromise safety and damage the
tyres beyond repair.
WARNING
165)The road holding qualities of the car
also depend on the correct inflation
pressure of the tyres.
166)If tyre pressure is too low, it may
overheat and be severely damaged as a
result.
167)Do not cross switch the tyres, moving
them from the right of the car to the left
and vice versa.
168)Do not repaint alloy wheel rims at
temperatures higher than 150°C. The
mechanical characteristics of the wheels
might be compromised.
169)Travelling with partially or completely
deflated tyres can cause safety problems
and damage the concerned tyre beyond
repair.
BODY
PRESERVING THE
BODYWORK
Paint
Touch up abrasions and scratches
immediately to prevent the formation of
rust.
Maintenance of paintwork consists of
washing the car: the frequency
depends on the conditions and
environment where the car is used. For
example, in highly polluted areas, or if
the roads are spread with salt, it is
advisable to wash the car more
frequently.
To correctly wash the car, proceed as
follows:
remove the aerial from the roof to
prevent damage to it if the car is
washed in an automatic system;
if there is any decorative sticker or if
high pressure jets or cleaners are used
to wash the car, keep a distance of
at least 40 cm from the bodywork to
avoid damage or alteration;
wash the bodywork using a low
pressure jet of water;
wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy
solution over the bodywork, frequently
rinsing the sponge;
145

COLD TYRE INFLATION PRESSURE (bar)
When the tires are warm, the inflation pressure should be + 0.3 bar in relation to the recommended figure.
However, recheck that the value is correct with the tyre cold.

SNOW CHAINS
67) 68)
The use of snow chains should be in compliance with local regulations of each country. In certain countries, tyres marked with
code M+S (Mud and Snow) are considered as winter equipment; therefore their use is equivalent to that of the snow chains.
Snow chains can be fitted to the tyres of the front wheels (drive wheels) only.
Check the tension of the snow chains after the first few metres have been driven.
Using snow chains with tyres with non-original dimensions may damage the vehicle.
Using different size or type (M+S, snow, etc.) tyres between front and rear axle may adversely affect car driveability, with the risk
of losing control of the car and resulting accidents.
IMPORTANT Snow chains cannot be fitted to the space-saver wheel. If a front tyre is punctured, replace a rear wheel with the
space-saver wheel and move the rear wheel to the front axle. In this way, with two normal drive wheels at the front, snow
chains can be fitted.
WARNING
170)DO NOT fit wheel hub caps when using integral hub caps fixed (with springs) to the steel rim and after sale tyres provided with Rim
Protector. Use of unsuitable tyres and wheel caps may cause sudden decrease of tyre pressure.
171)The maximum speed for snow tyres marked “Q” is 160 km/h, while it is 190 km/h for “T” tyres and 210 km/h for "H" tyres. The highway
code speed limits must however always be complied with.
WARNING
67)Keep the vehicle's speed down when snow chains are fitted; never exceed 50 km/h. Avoid potholes, steps and pavements and avoid
driving long distances on roads not covered with snow to avoid damaging the car and the road surface.
68)With snow chains, use the accelerator with extreme care to prevent, or to limit as much as possible, slipping of the drive wheels that
could cause chain breakage, resulting in damage to the car body or mechanical components.
