FAILURE (amber)
Turning the key to MAR, the
warning light flashes once and then goes
off.
If with the ignition key at MAR, the war-
ning light stays on, this indicates a possi-
ble failure (see “Fiat Code system” in sec-
tion “Dashboard and controls”).
IMPORTANT The turning on at the same
time of the
U and
Y
warning lights in-
dicates a failure of the Fiat CODE system.
If with the engine running the warning li-
ght
Y
flashes, this means that the car is
not protected by the engine inhibitor de-
vice (see “Fiat Code system” in section
“Dashboard and controls”).

The presence of water in the
feeding circuit may cause se-
vere damage to the injection
system and irregular engine
operation. If warning light c lights up
(on some versions with the message on
the display), go to a Lancia Dealership
as soon as possible to have the system
bled. Water may have been introduced
in the tank if this appears immediately
after refuelling: in this case, stop the
engine immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
