WHY CHOOSING GENUINE PARTS
Dear Customer,
We would like to congratulate and thank you for choosing a Fiat Doblò.
We have written this handbook to help you get to know all the features of your vehicle and use it in the best possible way.
Here you will find information, advice and important warnings regarding use of your vehicle and how to achieve the best performance from the
technical features of your Fiat Doblò.
You are advised to read it right through before taking to the road for the first time, to become familiar with the controls and above all with those
concerning brakes, steering and gearbox; at the same time, you can understand the vehicle behaviour on different road surfaces.
This document also provides a description of special features and tips, as well as essential information for the safe driving, care and
maintenance of your Fiat Doblò over time.
After reading it, you are advised to keep the handbook inside the vehicle, for an easy reference and for making sure it remains on board the
vehicle should it be sold.
In the attached Warranty Booklet you will also find a description of the Services that Fiat offers to its customers, the Warranty Certificate and
the detail of the terms and conditions for maintaining its validity.
We are sure that these will help you to get in touch with and appreciate your new vehicle and the service provided by the people at Fiat.
Enjoy reading. Happy motoring!

after a Fiat Dealership has
deactivated the SBR system (see
“SBR system” in the “Safety”
section).
Service (Scheduled
servicing)
Using this function you can display
information about the mileage
intervals for vehicle servicing.
To consult the information, proceed
as follows:– briefly press theMENU
button, which makes the display
show the service interval in km or
mi according to the previous setting
(see "Distance units of
measurement" paragraph);
– briefly press theMENU
button to go back to the menu
screen or hold the button down
to go back to the standard screen.NOTE The “Scheduled Servicing
Plan” includes vehicle maintenance
at fixed intervals; refer to the
“Maintenance and care” chapter.
This message is displayed
automatically when the key is turned
to MAR, starting at 2,000 km (or
equivalent value in miles) from when
the next service is due and
reappearing every 200 km (or
equivalent value in miles). Below 200
km servicing indications are more
frequent. The display will be in km or
mi depending on the settings of
the unit of measurement. When the
next scheduled service is
approaching, the word “Service” will
appear on the display, followed by
the number of kilometres or miles
left, when the key is turned to MAR.
Go to a Fiat Dealership, where the
"Scheduled Servicing Plan"
operations will be performed and
the message will be reset.

84) For vehicles with robotised
gearbox, in the event of automatic
engine stopping with the vehicle
on a slope, the engine should
be restarted by moving the gear
lever towards (+) or (–) without
releasing the brake pedal. For
vehicles with robotised gearbox
and Hill Holder function, in the
event of automatic engine
stopping with the vehicle on a
slope, the engine must be
restarted by moving the gear lever
towards (+) or (–) without
releasing the brake pedal, so that
the Hill Holder function, active
only with the engine running,
becomes available.
85) If climate comfort is to be
favoured, the Start&Stop system
can be disabled, for a continuous
operation of the climate control
system.TPMS (Tyre
Pressure
Monitoring System)
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
86) 87) 88) 89) 90) 91) 92) 93) 94)
DESCRIPTION
The tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) warns the driver of low tyre
pressure on the basis of the cold
inflation pressure prescribed for the
vehicle.
Changes in outside temperature
may cause tyre pressure to vary.
This means that a decrease in the
outside temperature corresponds to
a decrease in the tyre pressure.
Tyre pressure must always be
adjusted according to the cold
inflation pressure. Cold tyre inflation
pressure is the tyre pressure after
letting the vehicle stand for at least
three hours or a travel shorter than
1.6 km after an interval of three
hours.
The cold tyre inflation pressure must
not exceed the maximum inflation
pressure value printed on the side of
the tyre.The tyre pressure also increases
while driving the vehicle: this is
a normal condition and does not
require any adjustment of the
pressure.
NOTE❒The TPMS does not replace the
normal tyre maintenance service and
does not indicate any fault in a tyre.
❒Therefore, the TPMS should not be
used as pressure switch while
adjusting the tyre inflation pressure.
❒Driving with insufficient tyre pressure
causes their overheating and can
result in tyre failure. The low inflation
pressure reduces fuel efficiency
and tyre tread life and may also affect
handling and braking performance
of the vehicle.
❒The TPMS does not replace the
correct tyre maintenance. It is up to
the driver to maintain the correct tyre
pressure level measuring it with a
suitable pressure switch. This is
necessary even if the decrease in the
inflation pressure value does not
cause the tyre pressure control
warning light to switch on.

STARTING AND DRIVING
WARNING
105) If the replaced fuse blows again, contact a Fiat Dealership.
106) Never replace a fuse with another with a higher amp rating; DANGER OF FIRE. If a general protection fuse
(MEGA-FUSE, MIDI-FUSE) is activated, contact a Fiat Dealership. Before replacing a fuse, make sure that the ignition
key has been removed and that all the other services are switched off and/or disengaged.
107) Contact a Fiat Dealership if a safety system (airbags, brakes), engine system (engine, gearbox) or steering system
general protection fuse blows.

IN AN EMERGENCY
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 services every
30,000/35,000 km (depending on
the version).
It is, however, important to
remember that scheduled servicing
does not completely cover all the
vehicle's requirements: even in the
initial period before 30,000/35,000
km, and then subsequently between
one service and another, ordinary
care is always required such as
routine checks involving topping up
fluid levels, checking tyre pressures
etc...
IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
Coupons are required by the
manufacturer. Failure to have them
carried out may invalidate the
warranty.
Scheduled Servicing can be carried
out by any Fiat Dealership, at
pre-established times.If during each operation, in addition
to the ones scheduled, the need
arises for further replacements
or repairs, these may only be carried
out with the express agreement of
the Customer.
IMPORTANT It is advisable to
contact a Fiat Dealership in the
event of any minor operating failure,
without waiting for the next service
coupon.
If your vehicle is used frequently for
trailer towing, the interval between
scheduled maintenance services
must be reduced.

IMPORTANT
36) The presence of water in the
supply circuit may cause severe
damage to the injection system
and irregular engine operation. If
the
warning light comes on,
go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the system bled.
If this problem is indicated
immediately after refuelling, water
may have entered the fuel tank.
In this case, immediately turn off
the engine and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
BATTERY
The battery is of the “limited
maintenance” type: under normal
conditions of use, the electrolyte
does not need topping up with
distilled water.
It does, however, need to be
checked periodically at a Fiat
Dealership or by specialist personnel
to make sure it is working correctly.
133) 134)
REPLACING THE
BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with
an original spare part with the same
specifications.
If a battery with different
specifications is fitted, the service
intervals given in the “Scheduled
Servicing Plan” will no longer be
valid.
Follow the battery manufacturer's
instructions for maintenance.
