Warning light What it means
EBD FAILURE
The simultaneous switching on of the (red)
, (amber)andESCwarning lights with the engine on,
indicates either an anomaly of the EBD system or that the system is not available. In this case, the rear
wheels may suddenly lock and the vehicle may swerve when braking sharply. On some versions the display
shows the dedicated message.
Drive very carefully to the nearest Lancia Dealership to have the system inspected immediately.
“DUALDRIVE” ELECTRIC POWER STEERING FAILURE
When the key is turned to MAR, the warning light switches on but it should switch off after a few seconds.
If the warning light (or, on some versions, a dedicated message and a symbol on the display) remains on,
you may not have steering assistance and the effort required to operate the steering wheel could be
notably increased; steering is, however, possible. In this case, contact a Lancia Dealership.
IMPORTANT In some circumstances, factors independent of the electric power steering could cause the
warning light on the instrument panel to switch on. In this case, stop the car immediately (should it be in
motion), stop the engine for about 20 seconds and then restart the engine. If the warning light (or, on some
versions, a dedicated message and a symbol on the display) remains on steadily, contact a Lancia
Dealership.
IMPORTANT After the battery is disconnected, the steering must be initialised. The warning light switches
on to indicate this. To carry out this procedure, simply turn the steering wheel all the way from one end to
the other or drive in a straight line for about a hundred metres.

Warning light What it means
LOW BATTERY CHARGE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light (or symbol for versions with multifunction reconfigurable display) switches on when the
ignition key is turned to MAR-ON, but it should switch off as soon as the engine has started (with the
engine running at idle speed a brief delay before going out is acceptable).
If the warning light (or, on some versions, a dedicated message and a symbol on the display) remains on
constantly or flashing, contact a Lancia Dealership.
AIR BAG FAILURE
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds.
The warning light switches on constantly (on some versions, together with a dedicated message and a
symbol on the display) to indicate an airbag system fault.
34) 35)
WARNING
34)If, when turning the key to MAR, thewarning light does not switch on or if it stays on when travelling, there could be a fault in the
restraint systems; in this event airbags or pretensioners may not be deployed in the event of impact or, in a lower number of cases, they may
deploy accidentally. Before continuing, contact a Lancia Dealership immediately to have the system checked.
35)The
warning light failure is indicated, depending on the version, by thesymbol on the display which switches on or by thewarning light flashing. In this case thewarning light may not indicate possible failures to the restraint systems. Before continuing,
contact a Lancia Dealership immediately to have the system checked.

WARNING
29)To avoid damaging the engine it is advisable to change the engine oil when thewarning light flashes. In this case, go to a Lancia
Dealership.
Warning light What it means
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds.
The warning light switches on (on some versions, with a dedicated message on the display and a symbol
on the display) when the engine is overheated.
in normal driving conditions:stop the car, switch off the engine and check that the water level in the
reservoir is not below the MIN mark. In this case, wait for the engine to cool down, then slowly and
carefully open the cap, top up with coolant and check that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on
the reservoir itself. Also check visually for any fluid leaks. Go to a Lancia Dealership if the warning light
switches on when the engine is started again;
if the vehicle is used under demanding conditions(e.g. towing trailers uphill or fully loaded): slow
down and, if the warning light stays on, stop the vehicle. Wait for 2 or 3 minutes with the engine running
and slightly accelerated to further favour the coolant circulation. Then stop the engine. Check that the
coolant level is correct as described above. If the fluid level is insufficient, top it up.
IMPORTANT On demanding routes, it is advisable to keep the engine on and slightly accelerated for a few
minutes before stopping it.

Warning light What it means
ABS FAILURE
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds.
The warning light switches on (on some versions, with a dedicated message on the display and a symbol
on the display) when the system is not efficient. In this case the braking system maintains its efficiency
unaltered but without the advantage of the ABS system.
Drive carefully and go to a Lancia Dealership as soon as possible.
PASSENGER AIRBAG/SIDE BAGS DEACTIVATED
The warning light switches on when the front passenger's airbag and side bag are disabled.
With passenger side front airbag on, when the key is turned to MAR, the warning light
switches on
constantly for several seconds, flashes for another few seconds and then should switch off.
39)
WARNING
39)A failure of thewarning light is indicated by thewarning light switching on. In addition, the airbag system automatically disables the
airbags on the passenger's side (both front and side airbags - for versions/markets where provided). Before continuing, contact a Lancia
Dealership immediately to have the system checked.

Warning light What it means
FUEL RESERVE / LIMITED RANGE
This warning light switches on when 5 to 7 litres of fuel are left in the tank. When the remaining range is
lower than approx. 50 km (or equivalent value in miles), on some versions the display will show a dedicated
message.
IMPORTANT The warning light will flash to indicate a system failure. Go to a Lancia Dealership to have the
system checked.
ESC SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds.
ESC system activation
Flashing of the warning light while driving indicates the intervention of the ESC system.

Warning light What it means
DPF (PARTICULATE FILTER) CLEANING IN PROGRESS (Diesel versions with DPF)
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds.
The warning light (together with a dedicated message and a symbol on the display on some versions)
switches on constantly to notify the driver that the DPF system needs to eliminate captured pollutants
(particulate) through the regeneration process.
The warning light does not come on during every DPF regeneration, but only when driving conditions
require that the driver is notified. To switch the warning light off, the vehicle must be kept moving until the
regeneration process is completed. On average, the process lasts 15 minutes. Optimal conditions for
completing the process are achieved by travelling at 60 km/h with engine speed above 2000 rpm.
When this warning light switches on, it does not indicate a vehicle failure and thus it should not be taken to
a workshop. On some versions, together with the warning light switching on, the display shows a
dedicated message.
40)
WARNING
40)Vehicle travel speed should always be adapted to the traffic and weather conditions, and must always comply with traffic regulations. The
engine can be stopped even if the DPF warning light is on: however, repeated interruptions of the regeneration process could cause
premature deterioration of the engine oil. For this reason, it is always advisable to wait for the warning light to go off before turning the engine
off, following the instructions appearing above. Do not complete the DPF regeneration process when the vehicle is stopped.
