LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
If when turning the igni-
tion key to MAR, the war-
ning light
¬
does not turn on or if
it stays on when travelling there
could be a failure in safety sy-
stems; in this event air bags or
pretensioners could not trigger in
case of impact or, in a minor num-
ber of cases, they could trigger ac-
cidentally. Contact Lancia Dealer-
ship immediately to have the sy-
stem checked.

Turning the ignition key to
MAR
the warning light turns on, but
it should go off after few seconds.
The warning light turns on when the
engine is overheated.
If the warning light comes on when
driving, proceed as follows:
❒
normal driving conditions
: stop
the car, switch off the engine and
check whether the water level in the
reservoir is not below the MIN
mark. Otherwise wait for few se-
conds to allow the engine cooling,
then open slowly and carefully the
cap, top up coolant and check
whether its level is falling between
MIN and MAX marks in the reser-
voir. Check visually any leak. If,
when restarting, the warning light
comes on again, contact a Lancia
Dealership.

ler uphill of fully laden car): de-
crease speed, if the warning light
stays on, stop the car. Wait for 2 or
3 minutes leaving the engine on
and slightly accelerated to further
activate the circulation of the coo-
lant fluid, then switch the engine
off. Check proper coolant level as
described previously.

car, keep the engine on and slightly
accelerated for few minutes before
switching it off.
The display will show the dedicated
