2015 FIAT DOBLO COMBI four wheel drive

When travelling on snowy roads with
snow chains, it may be helpful to
turn the ASR off: in fact, in these
conditions, the driving wheels
slipping when moving off gives you
better traction.
60)
For the correct operation of the ASR
system, the tyres must absolutely
be the same make and type on
all wheels, in perfect condition and,
above all, of the type, make and size
specified.FAULT INDICATIONS
In the event of a fault, the ASR will
be automatically switched off and
the
warning light will appear
permanently on the instrument panel
along with a message on the
multifunction display, where
provided (see “Warning lights and
messages”). In this case, contact a
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
WARNING
58) Do not take unnecessary risks,
even if your vehicle is fitted with
an ESC system. Your driving style
must always be suited to the
road conditions, visibility
and traffic. The driver is always
responsible for road safety.
59) For the ESC and ASR systems to
function correctly, all four tyres
must be the same brand and type,
must be in excellent condition
and, above all, must be of the
prescribed type and size.60) Do not take unnecessary risks,
even if your vehicle is fitted with
this system. Your driving style
must always be suited to the road
conditions, visibility and traffic.
The driver is always responsible
for road safety.

SAFETY

❒The TPMS warns the driver of any
condition of insufficient tyre pressure
If this drops below the insufficient
pressure limit for any reason including
low temperature and normal
pressure loss of the tyre.
❒The seasonal temperature changes
affect tyre pressure.
The TPMS uses wireless devices
with electronic sensors mounted on
the wheel rims to constantly monitor
the value of tyre pressure. The
sensors mounted on each wheel as
part of the valve stem transmit
various information of the tyres to
the receiver module, in order to
calculate the pressure.
IMPORTANT Monitoring and
maintaining the correct pressure in
all four tyres are particularly
important.
Tyre pressure
monitoring system low
pressure warning
The system warns the driver if one
or more tyres are flat by switching
on the warning light
on the
instrument panel (together with a
warning message and an acoustic
signal).The TPMS continues to advise the
driver of the low tyre pressure
condition until this is corrected; the
warning continues until the pressure
corresponds or exceeds the
pressure prescribed for the cold
tyres. When the tyre low pressure
control warning light
switches on
constantly, the inflation pressure
must be adjusted until it reaches the
pressure prescribed for cold tyres.
After the automatic update of the
system, the tyre pressure control
warning light switches off. You may
need to drive the vehicle for about
20 minutes at a speed higher than
20 km/h to allow the TPMS to
receive this information.
IMPORTANT In the case of deflation
of more than one tyre sequentially,
without switching off and on the
engine, from the second tyre
involved the acoustic signal is not
activated, only the dedicated signal
is shown on the display.To prevent the signal from being
stored in the event of pressure loss
of a subsequent tyre (with
deactivation of the acoustic signal),
the ignition key must be turned to
MAR and then to STOP, each time
pressure is restored.
TPMS operation faults
The system fault is indicated by
warning light
which first flashes
for 75 seconds and then stays
on steadily. This can occur in any of
the following situations:
❒interference caused by electronic
devices or radio frequency emissions
similar to those of the TPM sensors.
❒Application of tinted films which
interfere with the signals of the radio
waves.
❒Presence of snow or ice on the
wheels or the wheel arches.
❒Use of snow chains.
❒Use of wheels/tyres not equipped
with TPM sensors.
❒The space-saver wheel is not
equipped with the tyre pressure
control sensor. Therefore, the tyre
pressure is not controlled by the
system.
145

NOTE The vehicle may be equipped
with FiX&Go Automatic tyre repair
kit, space-saver wheel or full size
spare wheel (with or without original
TPMS sensor to measure tyre
pressure).
After the punctured tyre has been
repaired with the original tyre sealant
contained in the FiX&Go Automatic
tyre repair kit, the previous condition
must be restored, so that the
warning light is off during normal
driving.
Space-saver wheel (for versions/
markets, where provided): the
space-saver wheel is not equipped
with a TPMS sensor. Once fitted,
while driving normally, the warning
light comes on (flashing for about 75
seconds, and then constantly).
This condition lasts until a wheel
equipped with an original TPMS
sensor is fitted on the vehicle.Normal spare wheel (without TPMS
sensor): once fitted, while driving
normally, the
warning light comes
on (flashing for about 75 seconds,
and then constantly). This condition
lasts until a wheel equipped with
an original TPMS sensor is fitted on
the vehicle. The system is then
restored and the
warning light
switches off.
Normal spare wheel (with TPMS
sensor): once fitted, while driving
normally, the
warning light
switches off.
IMPORTANT In all the above-
mentioned cases, it is advisable to
check the spare wheel tyre pressure
before starting driving.
NOTE If the tyres are replaced,
driving the vehicle for short
stretches, some time might be
needed before the system is
restored.IMPORTANT
WARNING
86) The TPMS is optimised for the
original tyres and wheels
provided. TPMS pressures and
alerts have been defined
according to the size of the tyres
mounted on the vehicle. Using
equipment with different size,
type or kind may cause irregular
system operation or sensor
damage. Non-original spare
wheels can damage the sensor.
Do not use tyre sealant or
balancing weights if the vehicle is
equipped with TPMS as these
may damage the sensors.
87) If the system signals a pressure
decrease on a specific tyre, it is
recommended to check the
pressure on all four tyres.
88) TPMS does not relieve the driver
from the obligation to check the
tyre pressure every month; it is
not to be considered a replacing
system for maintenance or a
safety system.

STARTING AND DRIVING

IMPORTANT When using snow
tyres with a maximum speed index
below the one that can be reached
by the vehicle (increased by 5%),
place a notice in the passenger
compartment, plainly in view, which
states the maximum speed allowed
by the snow tyres (as per EC
Directive).
All four tyres should be the same
(brand and track) to ensure greater
safety when driving and braking
as well as a good manoeuvrability.
Remember that you should not
change the rotation direction of the
tyres.
101)
WARNING
101) The max. speed for snow tyres
with “Q” marking is 160 km/h. The
Road Traffic Code speed limits
must however be always strictly
observed.
SNOW CHAINS
The use of snow chains should be in
compliance with local regulations.
The snow chains may be applied
only onto the front wheel (drive
wheels).
Check the tension of the snow
chains after the first few metres have
been driven.
102)
WARNING
102) Keep your speed down when
snow chains are fitted; do not
exceed 50 km/h. Avoid potholes,
steps and pavements and avoid
driving for long distances on
roads not covered with snow to
prevent damaging the vehicle and
the roadbed.
