2020 Lancia Ypsilon Owner handbook (in English)

SCHEDULED
SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
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.
Scheduled Services are offered by all
Lancia Dealerships according to a
set time schedule. 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 the explicit
agreement of the Customer. If your car
is used frequently for towing, the
interval between one service operation
and the next should be reduced.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Scheduled Servicing interventions are
set out by the Manufacturer. Failure
to carry them out can cause the
guarantee to decline.
It is advisable to inform a Lancia
Dealership of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the next
service.
