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).
