INDEXRECHARGING THE BATTERY
IMPORTANT The battery recharging procedure is pro-
vided for information purposes only. You are recom-
mended to go to a Fiat Dealership to have this operation
performed.
We recommend recharging the battery slowly for ap-
proximately 24 hours at low amperage. A prolonged
recharge might damage the battery.
Charge the battery as follows:
WITHOUT START&STOP SYSTEM
❒disconnect battery negative terminal;
❒connect the charger cables to the battery terminals,
observing the polarity;
❒turn on the charger;
❒when you have finished, turn the charger off before
disconnecting it from the battery;
❒reconnect negative battery terminal.
Battery fluid is poisonous and corrosive:
avoid contact with your skin and eyes. The
battery recharging operation must be performed
in a ventilated place, away from naked flames or
possible sources of sparks to avoid the risk of ex-
plosion and fire.
WARNING
F0V0209mfig. 177b
WITH START&STOP SYSTEM
(fig. 177b)
❒disconnect the quick release negative terminal A from
the dummy negative terminal B; this is because a bat-
tery status monitoring sensor D is fitted on the nega-
tive battery terminal C and should never be disconnected
except for when the battery is actually replaced;
❒connect the positive cable of the charger to the posi-
tive pole of the battery and the negative cable to the
dummy negative terminal B;
❒turn on the charger;
❒when you have recharged, turn the charger off before
disconnecting it from the battery;
❒after disconnecting the charger, reconnect the quick
release negative A to the dummy terminal B.

TOWING THE VEHICLE
The tow ring supplied with the vehicle is located in the
tool box located either behind the left seat backrest (Car-
go versions) or in the boot (Doblò / Doblò Combi ver-
sions).
FASTENING THE TOW
RING fig. 178-179
Proceed as follows:
❒release the cap A;
❒remove the tow ring B from the tool box;
❒screw the ring tightly onto the rear or front threaded
pin.
RAISING THE VEHICLE
If the vehicle needs to be lifted, go to a Fiat Dealership
which is equipped with the arm hoist or workshop lift.
Don’t try to recharge a frozen battery: de-
frost it first or it might explode. If the bat-
tery was frozen, have it inspected by specialised
personnel before recharging to check that the in-
ternal elements are not damaged and that the
casing is not cracked, which could cause poiso-
nous, corrosive acid to leak.

Before towing, turn the ignition key to
MAR and then to STOP without extract-
ing it. The steering column will automatically lock
when the key is removed, making it impossible to
turn the wheels.
WARNING
Before tightening the ring, clean the
threaded housing thoroughly. Before tow-
ing the vehicle, make sure that the tow ring is ful-
ly tightened in its appropriate housing.
Never start the engine when the vehicle is being
towed.
WARNING
Remember that, while being towed, you
will need to brake harder because there
will be no assistance from the brake booster. Do
not use bendy cables for towing and avoid jerk-
ing. During towing operations, make sure that the
fastened joint does not damage adjoining com-
ponents. When towing the vehicle, comply with
the specific rules of the highway code regarding
the towing device and road conduct. Do not start
the engine while being towed.
WARNING
The front and rear tow hooks should be
used only for emergencies on the road. You
are allowed to tow the car for short dis-
tances using an appropriate device in accordance
with the highway code (a rigid bar), to move the
vehicle on the road in readiness for towing or trans-
porting via a breakdown vehicle. Tow hooks MUST
NOT be used to tow vehicles off the road or where
there are obstacles and/or for towing operations
using cables or other non-rigid devices. Respecting
the above conditions, towing must take place with
two vehicles (one towing, the other towed) aligned
as much as possible along the same centre line.

SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is essential for ensuring long vehicle life
under the best conditions.
This is why Fiat has planned a series of checks and ser-
vice operations every 30,000/35,000 km (according to ver-
sions).
It is, however, important to remember that scheduled
servicing does not completely cover all the vehicle’s re-
quirements: even in the initial period before 30,000/35,000
km, and then subsequently between one service and an-
other, ordinary care is always required such as routine
checks involving topping up fluid levels, checking tyre pres-
sures etc...IMPORTANT Scheduled Services are prescribed by the
manufacturer. Failure to stick to the schedule may invali-
date the warranty.
Scheduled Servicing is performed by all Fiat Dealerships
at pre-arranged times.
If, during each part of the service, the need arises for ad-
ditional replacements or repairs, these may be carried
out only with the explicit agreement of the Customer.
IMPORTANT You are advised to contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship immediately in the event of any minor operating faults,
without waiting for the next service.
If your vehicle is used frequently for towing trailers, the
interval between scheduled services must be reduced.
