2017 FIAT DOBLO COMBI consumption

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
103)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.
104)If the system signals a pressure
decrease on a specific tyre, it is
recommended to check the pressure on all
four tyres.
105)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.
106)Tyre pressure must be checked with
tyres cold. Should it become necessary for
whatever reason to check pressure with
warm tyres, do not reduce pressure even if
it is higher than the prescribed value, but
repeat the check when tyres are cold.
107)The TPMS cannot indicate sudden
tyre pressure drops (for example when
a tyre bursts). In this case, stop the vehicle,
braking with caution and avoiding abrupt
steering.108)The system only warns that the tyre
pressure is low: it is not able to inflate
them.
109)Insufficient tyre inflation increases fuel
consumption, reduces the tread duration
and may affect the capacity to drive safely.
110)Always refit the valve stem cap after
inspecting or adjusting tyre pressure.
This prevents dampness or dirt from
entering the valve stem and thus
the pressure control sensor from being
damaged.
111)The tyre repair kit (Fix&Go) provided
with the vehicle (for versions/markets,
where provided) is compatible with the
TPMS sensors; using sealants not
equivalent with that in the original kit may
adversely affect its operation. If sealants
not equivalent with the original one are
used, it is recommended to have the
TPMS sensor operation checked by a
qualified repair centre.

STARTING AND DRIVING

WARNING
22)For diesel engines, use only diesel fuel
for motor vehicles in accordance with
EN590 European specifications. The use of
other products or mixtures may damage
the engine beyond repair and
consequently invalidate the warranty, due
to the damage caused. If you accidentally
introduce other types of fuel into the tank,
do not start the engine. Empty the tank.
If the engine has been run for even an
extremely limited amount of time, you must
not only drain the fuel tank, but the rest of
the supply circuit as well.
23)Do not approach naked flames or lit
cigarettes to the fuel tank filler: fire risk.
Keep your face away from the fuel filler to
prevent breathing in harmful vapours.
SAVING FUEL
Some useful tips are given below for
fuel saving and reducing harmful
emissions of CO2 and other pollutants
(nitrogen oxides, unburnt
hydrocarbons, Particulate Matter (PM),
etc.).
PRACTICAL ADVICE FOR
REDUCING FUEL
CONSUMPTION AND
HARMFUL EMISSIONS
Vehicle conditions
Have checks and adjustments for
vehicle maintenancecarried out
in accordance with the “Scheduled
servicing plan”.
Checktyrepressure regularly, at
least once every four weeks.
Excessively low pressures will increase
consumption because rolling resistance
will be higher. In addition, this wears
the tyre more quickly and impairs
performance.
Only usesnow tyreswhen the
weather conditions make them
absolutely necessary. They increase
consumption and noise.
Do not travel witha heavy load: the
weight of the vehicle (especially when
driving in town) and its geometry greatly
affect fuel consumption and stability.
Removeroof racks or ski racks
after use. These accessories reduce the
vehicle's aerodynamic penetration and
have a negative effect on fuel
consumption.
When transporting particularly large
objects, use atrailerif possible.
Use the vehicle's air vents if
possible: travelling with the windows
open impairs aerodynamics.
Use electrical devices only for the
amount of time needed. The vehicle’s
heated rear window, additional
headlights, screen wipers and heater
fan require a considerable amount
of energy; this increases fuel
consumption (by up to +25% in an
urban cycle).
Air conditioning leads to higher fuel
consumption (on average up to +30%).
If the temperature outside is not too
extreme, try and use the air vents.
Driving style
Afterstarting the engineyou
should drive away immediately and
slowly, avoiding high revs. Do not warm
up the engine at low or high revs when
the vehicle is stationary; this causes
the engine to warm up more slowly,
thereby increasing fuel consumption,
emissions and mechanical component
wear.
143

Avoidpointless actionssuch as
revving up when at traffic lights or
before stopping the engine. The latter
action, like double-declutching, is
unnecessary and causes increased fuel
consumption and pollution.
Gear selection:select a high gear
as soon as possible (taking into
account normal engine operation and
traffic conditions) without pushing
the engine to high revs during
the intermediate gears. Using low gears
at high revs to get lively acceleration
increases fuel consumption, harmful
emissions and engine wear.
Vehicle speed:fuel consumption
increases exponentially as the speed of
the vehicle increases. Keep your speed
moderate and as even as possible,
avoiding unnecessary braking and
acceleration, which cause excessive
fuel consumption and increased
emissions. Keeping a safe distance
from the vehicle in front helps to
maintain a steady speed.
Acceleration:accelerating violently
severely affects consumption and
emissions. Acceleration should be
gradual and should not exceed the
maximum engine torque rate.CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short journeys and frequent cold starts
do not allow the engine to reach
optimum operating temperature.
This results in a significant increase in
consumption levels (from +15 to +30%
on the urban cycle) and emissions.
Traffic and road conditions
Rather high consumption levels are
linked to situations with heavy traffic, for
instance when travelling in queues
with frequent use of the lower gears or
in cities with many traffic lights. Winding
mountain roads and rough road
surfaces also adversely affect
consumption.
Stops in traffic
During prolonged hold-ups (e.g. level
crossings) the engine should be
switched off.
TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT
The vehicle must be equipped with a
type-approved tow hook and adequate
electrical system to tow trailers.
Installation should be carried out by
specialised personnel who will issue the
required papers for travelling on roads.
Install any specific and/or additional
door mirrors as specified by the
Highway Code.
Remember that when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, braking
spaces increase and overtaking takes
longer depending on the overall weight.
Engage a low gear when driving
downhill, rather than constantly using
the brake.
The weight of the trailer on the vehicle
tow hook will reduce the loading
capacity of the vehicle by the same
amount.
To make sure that the maximum
towable weight is not exceeded (given
in the vehicle registration document)
account should be taken of the fully
laden trailer, including accessories and
luggage.
Do not exceed the speed limits specific
to each country you are driving in, in
the case of vehicles towing trailers.
In any case, the top speed must not
exceed 80 km/h.

ENGINE OIL
Check the oil level a few minutes after
stopping the engine (about 5 minutes)
with the vehicle parked on level ground.
Check the level is within the MIN. and
MAX. marks on the dipstick B fig. 212 -
fig. 213 - fig. 214 - fig. 215 - fig. 217 -
fig. 218 - fig. 219.
The range between the MIN. and MAX.
marks corresponds to about 1 litre of
oil.
If the oil level is near or under the MIN
line, add oil through the filler Afig. 212 -
fig. 213 - fig. 214 - fig. 215 - fig. 217
- fig. 218 - fig. 219, until it reaches the
MAX line.
The oil level must never exceed the
MAX reference.
Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption
is usually 400 grams every 1000 km.
The engine needs to run in when the
vehicle is new, and therefore the engine
oil consumption can only be considered
stabilised after the first 5,000 - 6,000
km.
IMPORTANT Oil consumption depends
on driving style and conditions of use
of the vehicle.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing
the oil, let the engine turn over for a few
seconds and wait a few minutes after
turning it off before checking oil level.137)

ENGINE COOLANT
The coolant level must be checked
when the engine is cold and must
range between the MIN and MAX
marks on the reservoir. If the level is
low, slowly pour a mixture of 50%
distilled water and 50% PARAFLU
UPby
PETRONAS LUBRICANTSthrough
the filler neck C fig. 212 - fig. 213 - fig.
214 - fig. 215 - fig. 217 - fig. 218 -

MAX.
The mixture of 50% PARAFLU
UPand
50% distilled water protects against
freezing down to temperatures of
–35°C. For particularly harsh climate
conditions, we recommended using a
mixture of 60% PARAFLU
UPand 40%
distilled water.

FUEL
CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in
the tables below are determined on the
basis of the type-approval tests laid
down by specific European Directives.
These consumption values refer to
basic vehicles without optionals.
The following procedures are used to
measure the fuel consumption:
urban cycle: begins with cold
starting, followed by driving simulating
the use of the vehicle in town;
extra-urban cycle: driving that
simulates using the vehicle out of town
with frequent acceleration in all gears;
the speed varies from 0 to 120 km/h;
combined fuel consumption:
calculated with a weighting of
approximately 37% of the urban cycle
and 63% of the extra-urban cycle.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic
situations, weather conditions, driving
style, general conditions of the vehicle,
trim level/equipment/accessories,
climate control system, vehicle load,
roof rack, other situations that affect
aerodynamics or air drag may lead to
different fuel consumption levels than
those measured.IMPORTANT
In practice, fuel consumption may be
higher than the values obtained during
the approval tests.
Here are some of the major factors that
can lead to a difference between test
and real consumption.
1) Vehicle condition: inadequate
servicing, use of roof racks, trailers,
heavy loading, high usage of electrical
devices and the air conditioning.
2) Driving style: frequent cold starts for
short journeys, poor engine warming
technique, gear selection, high speeds,
sudden acceleration and braking.
3) Traffic and road conditions: driving in
traffic, steep hills or winding roads,
road surface conditions.
4) Atmospheric conditions: intemperate
weather, wind, rain, snow, high altitude.
5) Proportion of use in towns and
cities, in the country and on
motorways.
