2016 FIAT DOBLO COMBI steering wheel

USE OF THE OWNER HANDBOOK
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Each time direction instructions (left/right or forwards/backwards) about the vehicle are given, these must be intended as
regarding an occupant in the driver's seat. Special cases not complying with this rule will be specified as appropriate in the text.
The figures in the Owner Handbook are provided by way of example only: this might imply that some details of the image do
not correspond to the actual arrangement of your vehicle. In addition, the Handbook has been conceived considering vehicles
with steering wheel on the left side; it is therefore possible that on vehicles with steering wheel on the right side, the position
or construction of some controls is not exactly mirror-like with respect to the figure.
To identify the chapter with the information needed you can consult the index at the end of this Owner Handbook.
Chapters can be rapidly identified with dedicated graphic tabs, at the side of each odd page. A few pages further there is a key
for getting to know the chapter order and the relevant symbols in the tabs. There is in any case a textual indication of the
current chapter at the side of each even page.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
While reading this Owner Handbook you will find a series ofWARNINGSto prevent procedures that could damage your
vehicle.
There are alsoPRECAUTIONSthat must be carefully followed to prevent incorrect use of the components of the vehicle,
which could cause accidents or injuries.
Therefore allWARNINGSandPRECAUTIONSmust always be carefully followed.
WARNINGSandPRECAUTIONSare recalled in the text with the following symbols:
personal safety;
vehicle integrity;
environmental protection.
NOTE These symbols, when necessary, are indicated besides the title or at the end of the line and are followed by a number.
That number recalls the corresponding warning at the end of the relevant section.

2) 3)
WARNING
1)Press button B only with the key away
from your body, specifically from your eyes
and from objects which could get
damaged (e.g. your clothes). Do not leave
the key unattended to prevent people,
especially children, from inadvertently
pressing the button.
2)Once the dead lock system is engaged it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the vehicle. Therefore, before
engaging the system check that there is no
one left inside.
3)If the remote control battery is flat, the
system can only be turned on by inserting
the metal key in the door lock: in this case,
the device remains active for the rear
doors only.
WARNING
1)Used batteries are harmful to the
environment. You can dispose of them
either in the correct containers as specified
by law or by taking them to a Fiat
Dealership, which will deal with their
disposal.
IGNITION DEVICE
The key can be turned to 3 different
positions fig. 10:
STOP: engine off, key extractable,
steering locked. Some electrical
devices (e.g. sound system, central
door locking system, etc.) can operate;
MAR: driving position. All electrical
devices are enabled;
AVV: engine starting (unstable
position).
The ignition switch is fitted with an
electronic safety system that requires
the ignition key to be turned back
to STOP if the engine will not start,
before the starting operation can be
repeated.
4) 5) 6) 7)
STEERING LOCK
Activation
When the key is at STOP, remove the
key and turn the steering wheel until
it locks.
Deactivation
Move the steering wheel slightly as you
turn the ignition key to MAR.
WARNING
4)If the ignition device has been tampered
with (e.g. an attempted theft), have it
checked over by a Fiat Dealership before
driving again.
5)Always remove the key when you leave
your vehicle to prevent someone from
accidentally operating the controls.
Remember to engage the handbrake.
Engage first gear if the vehicle is parked
uphill or reverse gear if the vehicle is
parked downhill. Never leave children
unattended in the vehicle.
6)Never extract the key while the vehicle is
moving. The steering wheel will
automatically lock as soon as it is turned.
This also applies to cases in which the
vehicle is towed.

WARNING
8)Before opening a door, ensure that you
can do it in conditions of safety.
9)You must not open the left-hand sliding
side door with the fuel cap open while
refuelling. Check that the fuel cap is closed
while opening/closing the sliding side
door to avoid damage.10)If you are parked on a slope, do not
leave the sliding door locked in the open
position. An involuntary impact could
unhook the door, causing it to move.
11)Before leaving the vehicle parked with
the sliding doors open, always check
that they are locked into place.
12)Always use this device when carrying
children.
13)The spring-loaded system was
designed for optimum usage. Accidental
knocks or a strong gust of wind may
release the springs, forcing the doors to
close.
14)When closing, shut the right hand door
fully before you close the left hand door.
Never shut the two doors at the same time.
WARNING
2)Make sure that the left sliding side door
is all closed before refuelling to prevent
damage to the door and to the sliding
locking system with fuel filler cap open,
activated during refuelling.

WARNING
22)All adjustments must only be carried
out with the vehicle stationary and the
engine off. Head restraints must be
adjusted so that the head, rather than the
neck, rests on them. Only in this case
can they protect your head correctly.
23)To make the best use of the head
restraint's protective action, adjust the
backrest so that your torso is upright and
keep your head as close as possible to the
head restraint.
STEERING WHEEL
The height and axial position of the
steering wheel can be adjusted on all
versions.
To carry out the adjustment, proceed as
follows:

lock lever A fig. 52 by pulling it
towards the steering wheel (position 2).

WARNING
24)All adjustments must only be carried
out with the vehicle stationary and the
engine off.
25)Under no circumstances should
aftermarket operations involving steering
system or steering column modifications
(e.g.: installation of anti-theft device) be
carried out that could badly affect
performance and safety. This also causes
the warranty to become null and void
and results in vehicle non-compliance with
type-approval requirements.
