REFUELLING CAPACITY
To fill the tank completely, top up twice after the pump
switches off. Further top ups could cause faults in the fu-
el supply system. If using/parking the vehicle in mountainous/cold areas for
a long time, you should refuel with locally available diesel.
In this case, it is also advisable to keep the tank over 50% full.
For diesel engines, use only diesel fuel for
motor vehicles in accordance with EN590
European specifications. The use of other
products or mixtures may damage the engine be-
yond repair and consequently invalidate the war-
ranty, depending on the damage caused. If you ac-
cidentally introduce other types of fuel into the
tank, do not start the engine. Empty the tank. If the
engine has run, even for a very short time, you will
need to have the entire fuel supply system emptied
in addition to the tank.
FUEL TANK CAP fig. 109
To open
1) Open the flap A-fig. 109 by pulling it outwards, keep the
cap B still, insert the ignition key in the lock and turn it an-
ticlockwise.
2) Turn the cap anticlockwise and remove it. The cap has
a device C that attaches it to the flap so it cannot be lost.
When refuelling, attach the cap to the flap as illustrated
in the diagram.

SBR SYSTEM
The vehicle is equipped with the SBR (Seat Belt Reminder)
system, which warns the driver (on all versions) and the
front passenger (on Doblò/Doblò Combi versions) if their
seat belt is not fastened, as follows:
❒warning light sounds continuously for the first six seconds;
❒warning light mittently for the next 90 seconds.
For permanent deactivation, contact a Fiat Dealership.
The SBR system can also be reactivated through the set-
up menu.
PRETENSIONERS
To increase the protective efficiency of the front seat belts,
the vehicle is fitted with pretensioners. These devices, in
the event of a violent head-on crash or side impact, rewind
the seat belts a few centimetres. In this way, they ensure
that the belts fit tightly to the wearer before the restraining
action begins.
The seat belt reel locks to indicate that the pretensioner
has cut in; the seat belt cannot be drawn back up even
when guided manually.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest degree of protection
from the action of the pretensioning device, wear the seat
belt so it fits snugly over the chest and hips.
A small amount of smoke may be produced when the pre-
tensioners cut in. This smoke is not toxic and does not in-
dicate a fire.
The pretensioner does not require any maintenance or lu-
brication. Anything that modifies its original conditions in-
validates its efficiency. If, due to unusual natural events
(floods, sea storms, etc.), the device has been affected by
water and mud, it absolutely must be replaced.

If you are having the vehicle scrapped, have the airbag sys-
tem deactivated at a Fiat Dealership first. If the vehicle
changes ownership, the new owner must be informed of
the method of use of the airbags and the above warnings
and also be given this “Owner’s Handbook”.
Pretensioners, front airbags and front side bags are de-
ployed differently according to the type of collision. Non-
deployment of one or more of these devices does not
therefore indicate a system fault.
If the warning light ¬does not turn on
when the key is turned to MAR, or if it
stays on when travelling (together with the mes-
sage on the display on some versions), there could
be a failure in the restraint systems. If this is the
case, the airbags or pretensioners may not trigger
in the event of an accident or, less likely, they may
trigger accidentally. Before continuing your jour-
ney, contact a Fiat Dealership to have the system
checked immediately.
WARNING
The expiry dates of the pyrotechnic
charge and spiral contact are shown on
the label in the glove box. When these dates ap-
proach, go to a Fiat Dealership to have the parts
replaced.
WARNING
Never travel with objects on your lap, in
front of your chest or with a pipe, pencil,
etc. between your lips; serious injury may result
if the airbag is triggered.

Degraded engine oil should be replaced as
soon as possible after the warning light
comes on, and never more than 500 km after it
first comes on. Failure to change the oil within the
first 500 km may result in severe damage to the
engine and invalidate the warranty. Remember
that when the warning light comes on, it does not
mean that the level of engine oil is low, so if the
light flashes you do not need to top up the engine
oil.
WARNING
SEAT BELT NOT FASTENED (red)
The warning light on the panel comes on steadi-
ly when the vehicle is stationary and the driver’s
seat belt is not correctly fastened. It will flash, and
be accompanied by an audible warning, if the front seat belts
are not correctly fastened when the vehicle is moving.
The SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system’s audible warning
can be disabled only by a Fiat Dealership.
On some versions, the system can be reactivated from the
setup menu.
<
DOOR OPEN (red)
On certain versions, the warning light turns on
when one or more doors, the boot or the bon-
net are not properly closed.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
You will hear a warning sound if a door is open and the
vehicle is moving.
ENGINE OIL LOW
(red)
When turning the ignition key to MAR, the warn-
ing light turns on but it should go off after a few
seconds.
This warning light appears on the panel when the engine
oil level falls below the minimum recommended value. Re-
store the correct engine oil level (see “Checking fluid lev-
els” in the “Servicing and maintenance” section).
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.

INFLATION PROCEDURE
If the wheel rim is damaged (the channel
is so deformed as to cause an air leakage)
it cannot be repaired. Do not remove foreign bod-
ies (screws or nails) from the tyre.
WARNING
The cylinder contains ethylene glycol. It
contains latex, which may cause an aller-
gic reaction. Harmful if swallowed. Irritates the
eyes. There could be a reaction in case of inhala-
tion or contact. Avoid contact with your eyes, skin
and clothes. In the event of contact, wash imme-
diately with plenty of water. Do not induce vom-
iting if swallowed. Rinse your mouth out and drink
plenty of water. Call a doctor immediately. Keep
out of the reach of children. The product must not
be used by asthmatics. Do not breathe in the
vapours during insertion and suction. Call a doc-
tor immediately if allergic reactions are noted.
Store the canister in its proper compartment,
away from sources of heat. The sealant has an ex-
piry date. Replace the cylinder if its sealant is out
of date.

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 ser-
vicing 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.
