JACK
Please note that:
the jack weight is 1,76 kg;
the jack requires no adjustment;
the jack cannot be repaired and in
the event of a fault it must be replaced
by another genuine one;
no tool other than its cranking
device may be fitted on the jack.
CHANGING PROCEDURE
To change a wheel, proceed as follows:
stop the car in a position that is
not dangerous for oncoming traffic
where you can change the wheel safely.
The ground must be flat and sufficiently
compact;
switch off the engine, pull up the
handbrake and engage the 1stgear or
reverse. Wear the reflective safety
jacket (compulsory by law) before
getting out of the car;
open the luggage compartment, pull
tab A fig. 103 and lift up the mat;
using the wrench A fig. 104 located
in the tool box, loosen the locking
device, take the tool box B and place it
close to the wheel to be replaced.
Then take the space-saver wheel C;
remove the snap-fitted hub cap. On
vehicles with 15” rims and cosmetic
hub caps, use extractor B fig. 105
contained in the Owner Handbook
casing to assist removal. Hold the
extractor B with two fingers, insert the
tab between tyre and hub cap (A)
and pull towards yourself,
perpendicularly to the wheel;
for versions with alloy rims, remove
the press-fitted hub cap;
take tool A and undo the fastening
bolts by approximately one turn, as
shown in fig. 106 (e.g. in case of alloy
rims);
for versions with alloy rims, shake
the car to facilitate detachment of
the rim from the wheel hub;
position the jack under the car, near
the wheel to be changed;

shown previously.
press-fit the wheel cap, aligning the
special splining (on the cap) with the
inflation valve;
place the inner part of the hub cap
on the wheel rim;
engage the hub cap by applying an
axial force in several points as shown
in fig. 110 to allow the correct coupling
between hub cap and wheel.Versions with alloy rims
Proceed as follows:
insert the wheel on the hub and use
the spanner provided to tighten the
bolts;
lower the vehicle and remove the
jack;
using the wrench provided, fully
tighten the bolts in the sequence
shown;
reinstall the pressure-fitted hub cap,
making sure that the reference hole
on the wheel is aligned with the
reference hole on the cap.
IMPORTANT If it is not fitted correctly,
the hub cap may detach when the
vehicle is running.
At the end of the operation
Stow the space-saver wheel in the
compartment provided in the boot;
insert the jack and the other tools in
the container;
arrange the container and tools on
the space-saver wheel;
correctly reposition the luggage
compartment mat.
WARNING
129)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
the event of an emergency. Never use it for
more than strictly necessary and never
exceed 80 km/h. On the space-saver
wheel there is an orange label,
summarising the main warnings regarding
space-saver wheel usage restrictions.
Never remove or cover the label. The label
contains the following indications in four
languages: "Warning! For temporary use
only! 80 km/h max.! Replace with standard
wheel as soon as possible. Never cover
this indication." Never apply a wheel cap
on a space-saver wheel.
130)If you change the type of wheel (alloy
rims instead of steel rims and vice versa)
you will have to change the entire set
of wheel studs with another set of suitably
sized ones.
131)Alert other drivers that the car is
stationary in compliance with local
regulations: hazard warning lights, warning
triangle, etc. Any passengers on board
should leave the car, especially if it is
heavily laden. Passengers should stay
away from on-coming traffic while the
wheel is being changed. On hills or uneven
roads, use chocks or appropriate objects
to block the wheels of the vehicle.

FUEL CUT-OFF
SYSTEM
147)
FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM
This intervenes in the case of an impact
causing:
the interruption of the fuel supply
with the engine consequently cutting
out;
the automatic unlocking of the
doors;
turning on of the lights inside the
vehicle;
the switching on of the hazard
warning lights.
On some versions, the intervention of
the system is indicated by a message
shown on the display.
IMPORTANT Carefully check the vehicle
for fuel leaks, for instance in the engine
compartment, under the vehicle or
near the tank area. After an impact, turn
the ignition key to STOP to prevent the
battery from running down.
To restore the correct operation of the
vehicle, proceed as follows:
turn the ignition key to the MAR
position;
activate the right direction indicator;
deactivate the right direction
indicator;
activate the left direction indicator;
deactivate the left direction indicator;
activate the right direction indicator;
deactivate the right direction
indicator;
activate the left direction indicator;
deactivate the left direction indicator;
ignition key turned to the OFF
position;
turn the ignition key to the MAR-ON
position.
LPG / Natural Power versions:inthe
event of an impact, petrol supply is
immediately cut-off, the LPG safety
valves are closed and the injection is
interrupted, switching off the engine.
WARNING
147)If, after an impact, you smell fuel or
notice leaks from the fuel system, do
not reactivate the system to avoid the risk
of fire.
TOWING THE
VEHICLE

IN AN EMERGENCY

VERSIONS WITH DUAL FUNCTION
SYSTEM GEARBOX
Make sure that the gearbox is in neutral
(N) (checking that the vehicle moves
when pushed) and proceed in the same
way as for towing a normal vehicle
with a manual gearbox.
If the gearbox cannot be put in neutral,
do not tow the car and contact a
Lancia Dealership.
WARNING
148)Before towing, turn the ignition key to
MAR-ON and then to STOP without
removing it. The steering column
will automatically lock when the key is
removed and the wheels cannot be
steered.
149)Before tightening the ring clean the
threaded housing thoroughly. Make sure
that the ring is fully fastened in the housing
before towing the car.150)Whilst towing, remember that the
assistance of the brake servo and the
electric power steering is not available,
therefore greater force needs to be exerted
on the brake pedal and more effort is
required on the steering wheel. Do not use
flexible cables when towing and avoid
jerky movements. Make sure not to
damage parts in contact with the car while
towing. When towing the vehicle, you
must comply with all specific traffic
regulations and adopt an appropriate
driving behaviour. Do not start the engine
while towing the car.
151)The front and rear tow hooks should
be used only for emergencies on the road.
You are allowed to tow the vehicle for
short distances using an appropriate
device in accordance with the highway
code (a rigid bar), to move the vehicle on
the road in readiness for towing or
transport via a breakdown vehicle. Tow
hooks MUST NOT be used to tow vehicles
off the road or where there are obstacles
and/or for towing operations using cables
or other non-rigid devices. In compliance
with the above conditions, towing must
take place with the two vehicles (one
towing, the other towed) aligned as much
as possible along the same centre line.

WARNING
163)Do not try to recharge a frozen
battery; defrost it first to prevent the risk of
explosion. If the battery was frozen, have
it inspected by specialised technicians
before recharging to check that the internal
elements are not damaged and that the
casing is not cracked, which could cause
poisonous, corrosive acid to leak.
