Glow plugs

The warning light goes on when the key is
turned to MAR. It goes out as soon as the

perature. Start the engine as soon as the

rature, warning light stays on for very

a failure to the glow plug heating system.

ble.

sage.
WATER IN DIESEL
c
FUEL FILTER (Multijet
versions - amber)
Turning the ignition key to MAR
the warning light turns on, but it should go
off after a few seconds.
The warning light cturns on when there
is water in the diesel fuel filter.
The display will show the dedicated mes-
sage.
The presence of water in the
feeding circuit may cause se-
vere damage to the injection
system and irregular engine
operation. If warning light clights 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.

PROTECTION SYSTEM
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-
Y
ght flashes, this means that the car is
not protected by the engine inhibitor de-
vice (see "Fiat Code system" in section
"Dashboard and controls").
Contact Fiat Dealership to have all the key
stored.
