Lancia Lybra Owner's Handbook Manual page 220

Do not add oil with dif-
ferent specifications from
the oil already in the en-
gine. Only the use of semi-syn-
thetic oil (see "Lubricant and fluid
specifications" in the "Technical
specification" chapter) can ensure
the distances prescribed in the
Service Schedule.
IMPORTANT After topping up or
changing the oil, let the engine turn
for a few seconds and wait a few min-
utes after stopping it before you check
the level.
Used engine oil and re-
placed oil filters contain
substances which can harm
the environment. We recommend
you have the car seen to at a Lan-
cia Dealership for the oil and filter
change. It is suitably equipped for
disposing of used oil and filters in
an environmentally-friendly way
that complies with the law.
ENGINE COOLANT
(fig. 11)
Do not remove the reser-
voir cap when the engine is
hot: you risk scalding your-
self.
Check coolant level when the engine
is cold. The level should be included
between the MIN and MAX reference
lines on the reservoir.
If the level is low, top up slowly
through the filler A on the reservoir
with a 50-50% mixture of distilled
water and PARAFLU UP fluid as re-
quired.
fig. 11
The engine cooling sys-
tem works with PARAFLU
UP. Top up only with the
same fluid contained in the cool-
ing circuit. PARAFLU UP cannot
be mixed with other fluids. Should
this take place, do not start the en-
gine and contact Lancia Dealer-
ship.
The cooling system is
pressurised. If necessary,
replace the cap with a gen-
uine spare part to avoid compro-
mising the system efficiency.
