HOT ENGINE COOLANT
(red)
Turning the key to the MAR-ON position
illuminates the warning light, but it should switch
off after a few seconds. The warning light switches
on (on some versions, with a message on the
display and a symbol on the display) when the
engine is overheated.
If the warning light comes on when driving,
proceed as follows:
❒ when driving normally: stop the car, switch
off the engine and check that the water level
in the reservoir is not below the MIN mark. If it
is, wait for a few minutes 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. Also
check visually for any fluid leaks. Go to a
Lancia Dealership if the warning light should
switch 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 light stays on,
stop the car. Wait for 2 or 3 minutes with the
engine running and slightly accelerated to
further favour the coolant circulation. Then stop
the engine. Check the correct liquid level as
described above.
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is
advisable to keep the engine on and slightly
accelerated for a few minutes before switching it
off.
FUEL RESERVE – LIMITED
RANGE (amber)
This warning light comes on when about 5 to 7
litres of fuel are left in the tank. When the
remaining range is approx. 50 km (or equivalent
value in miles), on some versions, the display
will show a warning message.
IMPORTANT The warning light will flash to
indicate a system failure. Go to a Lancia
Dealership to have the system checked.
EOBD/INJECTION SYSTEM
FAILURE (amber)
In normal conditions, the warning light switches
on when the key is turned to MAR (on some
versions, with a message on the display), but
should switch off as soon as the engine is started.
