Check that it is safe to
open a door before doing
so.
Make sure that the left-
hand sliding side door is
completely closed before
refuelling (see “At the filling sta-
tion” in this chapter). You could
damage the door and the sliding
lock system which comes into
play when the fuel flap is open.
You cannot open the
left-hand sliding side door
while refuelling when the
flap is open (see “At the filling
station” in this chapter).
SIDE DOORSIn Doblò Cargo versions, the side
sliding door is fitted with a catch which
stops it when it is fully open: to release
the catch, simply push the door against
the catch and pull it forwards force-
fully.
In any case, always make sure that
the door is correctly fastened in the
door open catch.
Do not leave the vehicle
parked on a steep slope
with the sliding door
open. An involuntary knock could
release the door and make it
slide.
When leaving the vehi-
cle parked with the sliding
doors open, always check
that the door hooks are properly
fastened into the retaining device
to ensure it remains fully open.
Improper use of the
electric windows can be
dangerous. Before and
during their operation ensure
that any passengers are not at
risk from the moving glass either
by personal objects getting
caught in the mechanism or by
being injured by it directly. Al-
ways remove the ignition key
when you get out of the vehicle
to prevent the electric windows
being operated accidentally and
constituting a danger to the peo-
ple left in the vehicle.
On driver’s side there is a button A-
fig. 109for automatic operation.
Press the button for longer than one
second: the window will stop when it
reaches the end of its travel (or until
the button is pressed again).

79GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
When using the boot,
make sure the load you
are carrying does not ex-
ceed the permitted weight (see
“Technical specifications”). Also
ensure the items in the boot are
arranged properly to prevent
them being thrown forwards and
injuring passengers should you
brake sharply. Do not travel with
the tailgate open: exhaust gas
could filter into the passenger
compartment.
If you are travelling in
areas where refuelling
can be difficult and you
want to carry a can of petrol, fol-
low the law in force. Use a ho-
mologated can and secure it ad-
equately. Even given these pre-
cautions, the risk of fire in the
event of an accident is increased.
Do not use the key as a
handle to open the tail-
gate. You could damage
it.
The opening of the boot is made eas-
ier by the gas-filed struts on each side.
IMPORTANTFit the key well into
the lock before turning it.
You will be able to open the tailgate
with the key only if you remove the
key from the lock after turning it by 45
degrees.
To close, lower the tailgate until the
lock clicks.
CENTRAL DOOR LOCKING
SYSTEM
From the outside
With the doors closed, fit and turn
the key in one of the front door locks.IMPORTANTAdjust the height of
the dipped headlight beam when trav-
elling at night with a rather heavy load
in the boot (see “Headlights” in this
chapter).
Make sure the load does not exceed
the values shown in “Weights” para-
graph, “Technical specifications” chap-
ter for correct operation of the head-
light adjustment device.
Do not knock the tail-
gate into objects on the
roof rack when you open
it.
