EMERGENCY
STARTUP

If the ignition key fails to deactivate

the engine immobiliser, the warning
light

¢ will remain lit and the engine

will not start. In this case, you should
contact your LANCIA Dealership
and get them to carry out the emer-
gency startup using the code given on
the CODE card. Alternatively, you
can perform the emergency startup
procedure yourself by following the
procedure given below.

Read the whole procedure care-

fully before trying to carry it out. If
you make a mistake in the emergency
procedure you must turn the ignition
key back to STOP and repeat the
whole operation from the beginning
step 1.

1) Read the 5-figure electronic code

given on the CODE card.

2) Turn the ignition key to MAR.

3) Press the accelerator pedal to the

floor and keep it there. The warning
lamp 

will light up for about 8

seconds, and then go out. At this point
release the accelerator pedal and pre-
pare to count the number of flashes of
the warning lamp

.

4) The warning lamp 

starts

flashing: when it has
flashed the number of times that cor-
responds to the first figure of the code
on the CODE card, press the acceler-
ator pedal and keep it there until the
warning lamp 

lights up for four

seconds and then

goes out again. Release the accelera-
tor pedal.

5) The warning lamp 

will start

flashing again: when
the lamp has flashed the number of
times that corresponds to the second
figure on the CODE card, press the
accelerator pedal to the floor and keep
it there.

6) Do the same for the remaining

figures on the CODE card.

7) Once the final figure has been en-

tered, keep the accelerator pedal
pressed. The warning lamp 

will

light up for 4 seconds and

then go out. Release the accelerator
pedal.

8) The warning lamp 

will flash

rapidly for about 4 seconds to indicate
that the operation has been completed
correctly.

9) Start the engine by turning the ig-

nition key from MAR to AVV (with-
out turning it to STOP).

If, however, the warning lamp 

remains lit, turn the ignition key
to STOP and repeat the procedure
from step 1.

IMPORTANT After an emergency

start, you should contact a LANCIA
Dealership immediately, otherwise
you will have to repeat the procedure
described each time you want to start
the engine.

JUMP STARTING

If the battery is flat, you can use an-

other battery to start the engine. Its
capacity must be the same or slightly
greater than the flat battery (see the
section “Technical Specifications”).

Do the following, (fig. 1):

1) Lift the protective cover on the

positive pole, then connect the posi-
tive terminals (+) of the two batteries
A and B with a jump lead, which is
usually red.

2) With a second lead (usually

black), connect the negative terminal
C (–) of the auxiliary battery to an
earth point 

D on the engine or

gearbox of the car to be started.

IMPORTANT Do not connect the

black lead to the negative pole of the
flat battery; any sparks could set the
gas coming out of the battery on fire.
If the other battery is fitted in a vehi-
cle, prevent accidental contacts be-
tween the metal parts of the two ve-

hicles.

3) Start the engine.

4) When the engine has

started, remove the leads in
the reverse order to before:

D, C, B and finally A.

If the engine fails to start after a few

attempts, do not keep turning the key
but have the car seen to at a LANCIA
Dealership.

Under no circumstances

should a battery charger
be used to start the engine:

it could damage the electronic sys-
tems and in particular the control
units governing ignition and fuel
feed.

Do not carry out this pro-

cedure if you lack experi-
ence; if it is not done cor-

rectly it can cause very intense
electrical discharges and the bat-
tery might even explode. In addi-
tion, the fluid contained in the bat-
tery is poisonous and corrosive.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
You are also advised not to put

naked flames or lighted cigarettes
near the battery and not to cause
sparks: risk of fire and explosion.

To avoid damage to the

electrical system, scrupu-
lously follow the cable

manufacturer’s instructions. Make
sure the cables have an adequate
cross section and are long enough
to avoid the two car touching.

into the catalytic exhaust
pipe and damage it beyond
repair.

BUMP
STARTING

Bump starting by pushing, towing

or rolling downhill must be
avoided at all costs. This way of
starting could cause a rush of fuel

Remember that as long as

the engine is not running,
the brake booster and

power steering do not work. You
therefore have to use considerably
more effort on both the brake
pedal and the steering wheel.

IF A TYRE 
IS

PUNCTURED

GENERAL INDICATIONS

The following precautions must be

observed when changing a wheel and
using the jack and the space-saver
spare wheel.

4C090-119 ING  11-03-2008  12:00  Pagina 94

95

G

Signal that the car is sta-

tionary as per the highway
code: hazard lights, warn-

ing triangle, etc.

Any passengers must get out of

the car, especially if it is heavily
laden, and keep out of the way of
traffic while the wheel is being
changed.

If the ground is sloping or

bumpy, place wedges or other suit-
able material under the wheels to
stop the car from moving.

The space-saver spare

wheel is specific to the ve-
hicle; do not use it on other

models and do not use spare
wheels designed for other models
on your car.

If you change the type of wheels

fitted (alloy rims instead of steel
ones), you must also change the se-
curing bolts for others of suitable
dimensions.

The space-saver spare wheel

must only be used in the event of
an emergency, and then only for as
little as possible and at no more
than 80 km/h. Driving will feel dif-
ferent with the space-saver spare
wheel fitted. Avoid sharp braking
and acceleration, sudden swerving
and fast cornering.

The space-saver spare wheel has

a life-span of about 3000 km after
which the tyre should be replaced
with another of the same type.

4C090-119 ING  11-03-2008  12:00  Pagina 95

96

G

Never fit a standard tyre to a rim

to be used for the space-saver
spare wheel. Have the punctured
tyre repaired and fitted back on as
soon as possible.

No more than one space-saver

spare wheel must be used at the
same time.

Do not grease the bolt threads be-

fore fitting them, they could un-
screw themselves.

The jack must only be used to

change wheels on the vehicle with
which it is supplied or on vehicles
of the same model. All other uses,
for example raising other vehicles,
must be excluded. Under no cir-
cumstances use the jack to carry
out repairs under the vehicle.

If the jack is not used correctly,

the raised vehicle may fall.

Do not use the jack to lift weights

above that indicated on the label
attached to the jack itself.

Never start the engine while the

car is raised by the jack. If travel-
ling with a trailer, detach the
trailer before raising the car.

Snow chains cannot be fitted to

the spare wheel, consequently if a
front tyre is punctured (front drive)
and snow chains need to be fitted,
a standard wheel must be removed
from the back axle and the space-
saver spare wheel fitted in its
place. In this way there will be two
standard wheels on the front and
the snow chains can be fitted.

Incorrect fitting of the wheel hub

could result in the hub coming off
when the vehicle is travelling.

Never tamper with the inflation

valve.

Do not insert any type of tool be-

tween the rim and the tyre.

Periodically check the tyre pres-

sure including that of the spare-
saver spare wheel as per the val-
ues given in “Technical Specifica-
tions”.

1. STOP THE CAR

– Stop the car so it is not a danger

for on-coming traffic and in such a
position that the tyre can be changed
in safety. The ground must be flat and
adequately firm. During the night,
chose a lit area, if possible.

– Turn engine off and engage the

handbrake.

– Engage first or reverse gear.

– Signal that the car is stopped ac-

cording to traffic regulations: hazard
lights, warning triangle, etc.

Any passengers must leave the car

and watch out for traffic while the
tyre is being changed. 

If the ground is sloping or bumpy,

place wedges or other suitable mate-
rial for stopping the car under the
wheels.

2. TAKE OUT THE TOOLS, 
JACK AND SPARE WHEEL
(space-saver wheel)

They are in the boot. 

– Lift the carpeting.

– Unscrew the fastener A (fig. 2)

and take out the tool holder.

The tool holder contains:
B - vehicle tow ring;
C - jack handle;
D - wheel bolt wrench;
E - screwdriver;

F - extension for screwing wheel

bolts and inflation valve cap;

G - jack.

– Take out the tools and remove the

space-saver spare wheel.

IMPORTANT

The indications

which follow must be complied with
to ensure that the jack and the spare
wheel are used correctly.

It must be remembered that:

– the jack weighs 1.85 kg;

– the jack does not require adjust-

ments;

– the jack cannot be repaired. If it

breaks, it must be changed with an-
other new jack;

– only the jack handle described in

this chapter can be fitted onto the
jack.

3. CHANGING THE WHEEL

1) Remove the wheel cup with a

screwdriver (LS versions).

2) Loosen the wheel bolts of the

wheel to be changed by about 1 turn.

3) If the car is fitted with alloy rims,

shake the car to facilitate removing
the rim from the wheel hub.

4) Turn the jack handle C so that

the jack opens partially.

5) Place the jack at the point marked

by a notch H (fig. 3) near the wheel to
be changed at approximately 10 cm
towards the centre of the car (fig. 3).

6) Turn the handle C to open the

jack until the jack groove is correctly
inserted in the sidemember ribbing. 

7) Warn any other people present

that the car is going to be lifted. Other
people must stay clear and not touch
the car until it is back on the ground.

8) Turn jack handle and lift the ve-

hicle until the tyre is a few centime-
tres above the ground.

The jack handle must turn freely,

without touching the ground to avoid
scraping your hand. 

Do not touch moving parts of the

jack (screws and joints) as they can
cause injuries. If you dirty your hands
with grease, clean them carefully.

9) Undo the 4 bolts completely and

remove the wheel cover (

N

version)

and wheel.

10) Ensure that the support surfaces

of the spare wheel are clean and free
from impurities which could succes-
sively cause the wheel bolts to loosen.
Mount the spare wheel so that the
holes I (fig. 4) coincide with the rela-
tive pins L.

IMPORTANT Do not fit the wheel

cover on the space-saver spare wheel.

11) Tighten the 4 securing bolts.

12) Turn the jack handle to lower

the car, and remove the jack.

13) Tighten up the wheel bolts com-

pletely in criss-cross fashion following
the order shown in (fig. 5).

14) Put the punctured wheel in the

spare wheel compartment.

The spare wheel is narrower than

normal wheels and must only be used
to travel to the nearest service station
so that the original tyre can be re-
paired.

Depending on whether the type of

wheels normally fitted to the car are
alloy or steel, the spare wheel (which
always has a steel rim) will differ in
construction so that it is compatible
with the wheel bolts which are specific
to each type of wheel.

If you wish to change the type of

wheel (alloy instead of steel and vice-
versa) the wheel bolts and a new
spare wheel must be employed.

Modifications or repairs

to the electrical system
carried out incorrectly and

without bearing the features of the
system in mind can cause mal-
functions with the risk of fire.

REFITTING THE STANDARD
WHEEL

1) Following the above procedure,

raise the car and take off the space-
saver wheel.

4) Fit the wheel cover (1.2

16V

7) Lower the car and re-

move the jack.

8) Tighten up the bolts com-

pletely in the order given previously in
(fig. 5).

9) Fit the wheel cover (LS version)

making sure that the inflation valve
seat is positioned correctly; press the
cover with the palm of your hands (do
not bang) against the rim shoulder
and ensure that all the retaining flaps
are inserted into the rim.

When you have finished:

– Put the space-saver spare

wheel into its special recess in
the boot.

– Refit the jack in its support mak-

ing A (fig. 7) coincide with the ring B
on the jack and positioning the base
of the jack to match C.

– Refit the tools you used on the sup-

port.

– Arrange the support and close the

fastener A (fig. 8).

IMPORTANT Check the inflation

pressure of the tyres and the spare
wheel regularly.

fig. 9

P4C00301

IMPORTANT If the type of wheel is

to be changed (alloy wheels in place
of steel wheels and vice-versa) all the
wheel bolts must be replaced with
others of a suitable length and a spe-
cific spare wheel employed with dif-
ferent construction characteristics.

The original wheel bolts though,

should be kept in case you wish to
change back to the original wheels at
a later date.

To unscrew/screw the inflation valve

cap, use extension F (fig. 2).
