The warning lights switch on together with a dedicated message and/or a buzzer where appropriate. These indications are precautionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/or alternative to the information contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases. Always refer to the information in this chapter in the event of a failure indication.
Low brake fluid level (red)
Turning the key to the MAR position illuminates the warning light, but it should switch off after a few seconds. The warning light switches on when the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum level, possibly due to a leak in the circuit. The display shows the dedicated message. lancia zagato for sale,lancia rally car for sale,lancia for sale,lancia car,Lancia Delta Owners Manual,Lancia Delta User Manual,Lancia Delta Service Manuals
Handbrake on (red)
When the key is turned to MAR, the warning light switches on but it should switch off after a few seconds. The warning light switches on when the handbrake is engaged. If the car is moving the buzzer will also sound. IMPORTANT If the warning light turns on when travelling, check that the handbrake is not engaged.
Tyre pressure monitoring system failure
(for versions/markets, where provided) This warning light (or symbol on the display) switches on when a failure is detected in the TPMS (for versions/ markets, where provided). Should one or more wheels without a sensor be fitted, the instrument panel warning light will come on and stay on until the initial conditions are restored. The display shows the dedicated message.
DPF (diesel particulate filter) cleaning in progress (only versions with DPF) (amber)
When the key is turned to MAR, the warning light switches on but it should switch off after a few seconds. The warning light turns on constantly when the DPF system needs to eliminate the trapped pollutants (particulate) through the regeneration process. The warning light does not come on every time the DPF is being regenerated, rather only when the driving conditions are such that the driver needs to know it. To switch the warning light off, the car must be kept moving until the regeneration process is completed.
On average, the process lasts 15 minutes. The best conditions to complete the regeneration process are reached driving the car at about 60 km/h with engine speed over 2000 rpm. When this warning light switches on, it does not indicate a car failure and thus it should not be taken to a workshop. A dedicated message will appear on the display when the warning light switches on (for versions/markets, where provided).
If the warning light remains on or comes on whilst driving, it means that the injection system is not working properly; in particular, if the warning light comes on constantly, this indicates a malfunction in the supply/ignition system that could cause excessive exhaust emissions, a possible loss of performance, poor driveability and high fuel consumption. On some versions the display shows the dedicated message. Under these conditions, you may continue travelling at a moderate speed without demanding excessive effort from the engine. Prolonged use of the car with the warning light on constantly may cause damage. Go to a Lancia Dealership as soon as possible. The warning light switches off if the malfunction disappears, but it is still stored by the system.
Lancia Code system failure (amber)
This warning light (or symbol on the display), when on constantly with the ignition key turned to MAR, indicates a possible failure (see “Lancia Code system”).
If the Y warning light (or symbol in the display) is flashing with engine running, this means that the car is not protected by the engine immobiliser device (see “Lancia Code system”). Contact a Lancia Dealership to have all the keys programmed.
Alarm failure
(for versions/markets, where provided) A failure in the alarm system is signalled by this warning light (or symbol in the display) switching on. Contact a Lancia Dealership as soon as possible. The display shows the dedicated message.
Break in attempt
(for versions/markets, where provided) This warning light (or symbol on the display) switches on when a break-in attempt is detected. Contact a Lancia Dealership as soon as possible. The display will show the dedicated message.
