2015 FIAT DOBLO COMBI lights

CHANGING A WHEEL
The vehicle is originally equipped
with the Fix&Go automatic quick
tyre repair kit (see instructions in the
next section). As an alternative,
the vehicle may have a normal-sized
spare wheel.
Wheel changing and correct use of
the jack and spare wheel call for
some precautions, as listed below.
108) 109) 110) 111)
Note for one-way
tyres
One-way tyres have a few arrows on
the side indicating the rotation
direction. If a wheel is changed
(when punctured, for example) the
direction of the arrows on the spare
wheel tyre may not coincide with
the rotation direction of the wheel to
be replaced.
In these conditions, too, the tyre still
maintains its safety features.Anyway, it is recommended to have
the wheel repaired and refitted as
soon as possible, as the best
performance is achieved when the
rotation direction of all tyres
coincides with the one indicated by
the arrows.
Please note that:
❒the jack weight is 4 kg;
❒the jack requires no adjustment;
❒the jack cannot be repaired and in
the event of a fault it must be
replaced by another original one;
❒no tool other than its cranking device
may be fitted on the jack.
To change a wheel, proceed as
follows:
❒stop the vehicle in a position that is
not dangerous for oncoming traffic
where you can change the wheel
safely. The ground should be flat
if possible, and sufficiently firm;
❒stop the engine and pull the
handbrake;
❒engage first gear or reverse;
❒wear the reflective safety jacket
(compulsory by law in certain
countries) before getting out of the
vehicle;❒indicate that the vehicle has broken
down using the devices required by
the law in the current country (e.g.
warning triangle, hazard lights, etc.);
❒for Cargo versions fig. 180: move the
left front seat forward and operate
lever A to access the tool bag; take it
to the wheel that needs replacing;
❒for Doblò/Doblò Combi versions fig.
181: open the rear doors, inside the
compartment on the rear right side,
take the tool bag, unhooking the
elastic band from the buckle, and
take it next to the wheel to be
changed;
❒take wheel spanner B fig. 182 and
the extension with pentagonal fitting
C; inside the load area, fit extension
C on bolt A; use spanner B to lower
the wheel by unwinding the wire;

❒reposition the tool bag behind the left
side seat (Cargo versions) or, resting
the bottom of the bag against the
side panel, in the compartment inside
the rear right side (Doblò/Doblò
Combi versions).
WARNING
108) The spare wheel (where
provided) is specifically for your
vehicle. Therefore, it must not be
used on other models. Do not
use spare wheels of other models
on your vehicle. The spare wheel
must be used only in an
emergency. Use of the spare
wheel must kept to the minimum
necessary.109) Use your hazard lights, warning
triangle, etc. to show that your
vehicle is stationary according to
the regulations in force.
Passengers should get out of the
vehicle, particularly if it is heavily
loaded, and wait for the wheel
to be changed away from the
traffic. If you are on a slope or
uneven surface, place wedges or
other suitable objects under the
wheels to secure the vehicle.
Have the wheel repaired and
refitted as soon as possible. Do
not apply grease to the bolt
threads before assembly: they
might spontaneously unscrew.
110) Use the jack only to replace
wheels on the vehicle with which
it is supplied or on other vehicles
of the same model. Never use
the jack for other purposes, such
as lifting other models. Never
use the jack to carry out repairs
under the vehicle. Incorrect
positioning of the jack may cause
the lifted vehicle to fall. Do not
use the jack for loads higher than
those shown on the label.111) Incorrect hub cap assembly
may cause it to come off when the
vehicle is moving. Never tamper
with the inflation valve. Never
introduce tools of any kind
between rim and tyre. Check tyre
and spare wheel pressures
regularly, referring to the values
shown in the "Technical
specifications" section.

FUEL CUT-OFF
SYSTEM
This intervenes in the case of an
impact causing:
❒the fuel supply cut-off with the engine
consequently switching off;
❒the automatic unlocking of the doors;
❒the switching on of the interior lights;
❒switching on of the hazard warning
lights (to deactivate the lights press
the dedicated button on the
dashboard).
122)
When the system has been
triggered, the message “Fuel cut off,
see handbook” is displayed on
some versions.
Check carefully for fuel leaks, for
instance in the engine compartment,
under the vehicle or near the tank
area.
After a collision, turn the ignition key
to STOP to prevent the battery
from running down.
The following procedure should be
carried out to restore the correct
operation of the vehicle:
❒turn the ignition key to the MAR
position;❒activate the right direction indicator;
❒deactivate the right direction
indicator;
❒activate the left direction indicator;
❒deactivate the left direction indicator;
❒activate the right direction indicator;
❒deactivate the right direction
indicator;
❒activate the left direction indicator;
❒deactivate the left direction indicator;
❒turn the ignition key to the OFF
position.
WARNING
122) If, after an impact, you smell
fuel or notice leaks from the fuel
supply system, do not reactivate
the system to avoid the risk of fire.
LIFTING THE
VEHICLE
If the vehicle needs to be lifted, go
to a Fiat Dealership which is
equipped with the arm hoist or
workshop lift.

USEFUL TIPS FOR
EXTENDING BATTERY
LIFE
To avoid draining your battery and
make it last longer, observe the
following instructions:
❒when you park the vehicle, ensure
that the doors, tailgate and bonnet
are closed properly, to prevent any
roof lights from remaining on inside
the passenger's compartment;
❒switch off all roof lights inside the
vehicle: the vehicle is however
equipped with a system which
switches all internal lights off
automatically;
❒do not keep accessories (e.g. radio,
hazard warning lights, etc.) switched
on for a long time when the engine
is not running;
❒before performing any operation on
the electrical system, disconnect
the negative battery pole;
❒completely tighten the battery
terminals.
IMPORTANT If the charge level
remains under 50% for a long time,
the battery is damaged by
sulphation, reducing its capacity and
efficiency at starting.The battery is also more prone to
the risk of freezing (already at
temperatures of -10°C). Refer to the
paragraph "Vehicle inactivity" in
"Starting and driving" if the vehicle is
left parked for a long time.
If, after buying the vehicle, you want
to install electric accessories which
require permanent electric supply
(alarm, etc.) contact a Fiat
Dealership whose qualified
personnel, in addition to suggesting
the most suitable devices from the
Lineaccessori Fiat, will evaluate
the overall electric absorption,
checking whether the vehicle's
electrical system is capable of
withstanding the load required, or
whether it should be integrated with
a more powerful battery.
Since some of these devices
continue to consume electricity even
when the engine is off, they
gradually run down the battery.
WARNING
133) Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with
skin and eyes. Keep naked flames
or possible sources of sparks
away from the battery: risk
of explosion or fire.
134) Using the battery when the fluid
is too low can damage it
irreparably and generate a risk of
explosion.
135) When performing any operation
on the battery or near it, always
protect your eyes with special
goggles.
