2016 FIAT QUBO key battery

READ THIS CAREFULLY!REFUELLING
Diesel engines: only use diesel fuel for motor
vehicles conforming to the European specification
EN 590. The use of other products or mixtures
may damage the engine beyond repair and
consequently invalidate the warranty, depending
on the damage caused.
STARTING THE ENGINEDiesel engines: Turn the ignition key to MAR
and wait for the warning light
to go out.
Turn the ignition key to AVV and release as soon
as the engine starts.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter develops high
temperatures during operation. Do not park the
vehicle on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or
other flammable material as this constitutes a fire
hazard.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENTThe vehicle is fitted with a system that allows
continuous diagnosis of the emission-related
components in order to help protect the
environment.ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the vehicle, you decide to add
electrical accessories (with the risk of gradually
draining the battery), visit a Fiat Dealership. They
can calculate the overall electrical requirement
and check that the electrical system of the
vehicle can support the required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICINGCorrect maintenance is essential for ensuring the
vehicle stays in tip-top condition and retains its
safety features, its environmental friendliness and
low running costs for a long time to come.
THE OWNER'S HANDBOOK CONTAINS…... important information, advise and warnings for
correct use, driving safety and maintenance of
your vehicle over time. Particular attention
should be paid to information marked with the
following symbols:
(personal safety),
(environmental protection),
(car integrity).

Changing battery - key with remote control
To replace the battery, proceed as follows fig. 5:
❒press button A and bring the metal insert B to the
open position;
❒turn the screw C to
using a fine bit screwdriver;
❒take out the battery case D and replace the
battery E, respecting its polarity;
❒refit the battery case D inside the key and fasten it
by turning the screw C to
.
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.ORDERING ADDITIONAL REMOTE
CONTROLS
The system acknowledges up to 8 remote controls.
Should a new remote control be necessary, contact a
Fiat Dealership, taking a personal identity document
and the vehicle ownership documents with you.
DEAD LOCK
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This security device prevents the opening of the
doors from inside the passenger compartment
if there has been a break-in attempt (e.g. a window
has been broken).
Dead lock therefore offers the best possible
protection against break-in attempts. We
recommend engaging it whenever the vehicle is
parked and left unattended.
WARNING
Once the dead lock system is engaged it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the vehicle. Before engaging the system
please therefore check that there is no one left
on board.

WARNING
If the remote control battery is flat , the
system can be engaged by inser ting
the metal key in the door lock as described
previously: in this case, the device only remains
active for the rear doors.
Switching the device on
The system is automatically enabled on all the doors
by pressing button
twice on the key with remote
control.
The direction indicators flash twice to let you know
that the device is active.
If one or more of the doors is not perfectly shut, the
dead lock device will not be activated, thus
preventing a person getting into the car through the
open door and, on shutting, it, remaining stuck
inside the passenger compartment.
Switching the device off
The system is disabled automatically on every door
when:
❒by unlocking the doors;
❒by turning the ignition key to the ON position.
ALARM(for versions/markets, where provided)
The alarm, in addition to all the previously described
remote control functions, is controlled by the
receiver located under the dashboard near the fuse
box.
ALARM TRIPPING
The alarm trips in the following cases:
❒unauthorised opening of a door, the bonnet, the
tailgate or a sliding side door (if present)
(perimeter protection)
❒unauthorized operation of the starting device (key
turned on using a key that is not enabled)
❒cutting of the battery leads
❒moving presence inside the passenger
compartment (volumetric protection)
❒anomalous lifting/tilting of the vehicle.
Depending on the market, the activation of the alarm
causes the activation of the siren and the direction
indicators (for about 26 seconds). Alarm tripping and
the number of cycles depend on the sales market.
There are a maximum number of acoustic/visual
cycles. When this is reached the system returns to
normal operation.
Volumetric and antilifting protections are disabled by
pressing the control button installed on the front
dashboard (see paragraph "Antilift protections).

STARTING AND DRIVING
STARTING THE ENGINEThe vehicle is fitted with an immobiliser: if the engine
fails to start, see the paragraph on “The Fiat CODE
system” in the “Knowing your vehicle” section.
The engine may be noisier during the first few
seconds of operation, particularly after a long period
of inactivity. This is due to the hydraulic tappets,
the timing system chosen for petrol engine versions
to reduce the number of servicing interventions,
and affects neither functionality nor reliability.
It is advisable not to demand maximum
performance from your vehicle (e.g.
excessive acceleration, long distances at
high speeds, excessive intense braking, etc .) during
the initial period of use.When the engine is switched off never
leave the key on (at MAR) to prevent
unnecessary consumption and draining
the battery.
WARNING
It is dangerous to have the engine
running indoors.The engine takes in
oxygen and discharges carbon dioxide, carbon
monoxide and other toxic gases.
WARNING
Remember that the brake booster and
electric power steering are not
operational until the engine has been started,
so you need to apply much more force than
usual to the brake pedal and steering wheel.
STARTING PROCEDURE FOR DIESEL
VERSIONS
Proceed as follows:
❒apply the handbrake;
❒put the gear lever into neutral;
❒turn the key on (MAR position): instrument panel
warning light
will light up;
❒wait for the warning lights
and
to go out.
The hotter the engine is, the quicker this will
happen;

PARKING THE CAR
Proceed as follows:
❒stop the engine and engage the handbrake;
❒engage a gear (1
stgear if parked uphill or reverse if
facing downhill) and leave the wheels turned.
If the vehicle is parked on a steep slope, it is
advisable to block the wheels with a wedge or stone.
To prevent draining the battery, do not leave the
ignition key turned to MAR. Always remove the key
when you leave the vehicle.
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle.
Always remove the ignition key when leaving the
vehicle, and take it with you.
SNOW TYRESA Fiat Dealership will be happy to provide advice
concerning the most suitable type of tyre for your
requirements.
For the type, pressures and specifications of the
snow tyre to be used, follow carefully the
instructions given in the “Wheels” paragraph of the
“Technical specifications” section.
The winter performance of these tyres is
considerably reduced when the tread thickness is less
than 4 mm. If this is the case, replace them.
Due to their specific features, the performance of
snow tyres is much lower than that of standard tyres
in normal conditions or on long motorway stretches.
You should therefore use them only in the
conditions for which they were designed.
