irregular engine operation. If the
warning light
c turns on (together
with the message on the display)
contact Lancia Dealership as soon
as possible to have the system relie-
ved. If the above indications come on
immediately after refuelling, water
has probably been poured into the

tely and contact Lancia Dealership.
CAR PROTECTION
SYSTEM FAILURE -
LANCIA CODE (amber)
Turning the key to MAR the
warning light shall flash only once
and then go off.
If with the ignition key at MAR, the
warning light stays on, this indicates
a possible failure (see “Lancia Code
system” in section “Dashboard and
controls”).
IMPORTANT The turning on at the
same time of the U and
Y
warning
lights indicates a failure of the Lancia
CODE system.
If with the engine running the war-
ning light
Y
flashes, this means that
the car is not protected by the engine
inhibitor device (see “Lancia Code sy-
stem” in section “Dashboard and con-
trols”).
Contact Lancia Dealership to have all
the key memorised.
