2017 FIAT DOBLO COMBI warning light

SPEEDOMETER
This shows the speed at which the
vehicle is travelling.
REV COUNTER
The rev counter shows the engine rpm.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection
control system gradually shuts off
the flow of fuel when the engine
is “over-revving” resulting in a gradual
loss of engine power.
When the engine is idling, the rev
counter may indicate a gradual or
sudden increase of the speed.
This behaviour is standard as it takes
place during the activation of the
climate control system or the fan. It
should not be considered as a fault. In
such cases, a slight increase in engine
idle speed helps to sustain the battery
charge.
FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
This shows the amount of fuel left in the
fuel tank.
E tank empty.
F tank full (see the instructions provided
in the “Vehicle refuelling” paragraph).
The warning light on the gauge comes
on to indicate that approximately 8-10
litres of fuel are left in the tank.
Do not travel with the fuel tank almost
empty: any gaps in fuel supply could
damage the catalytic converter.IMPORTANT The needle will point to E
and warning light A will flash to indicate
a fault in the system. Contact a Fiat
Dealership to have the system
checked.
ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE
INDICATOR
This shows the temperature of the
engine coolant fluid and starts working
when the fluid temperature exceeds
approx. 50°C.
In normal usage, the needle should
hover around the middle of the scale.
C Low engine coolant temperature.
H High engine coolant temperature.
The warning light on the gauge may
light up (and a message on the
multifunction display may appear on
certain versions) to indicate that the
coolant fluid temperature is too high; in
this case, stop the engine and contact
a Fiat Dealership.
10)
WARNING
10)If the needle for the engine coolant
temperature reaches the red area, stop the
engine immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.

EOBD SYSTEM
47)
The EOBD system (European On Board
Diagnosis) allows continuous diagnosis
of emission-related components on
the vehicle to be made. It also alerts the
driver, by turning on warning light
in the instrument panel (together
with the relevant message in the display
on some versions), when these
components are no longer in peak
condition (see "Warning lights and
messages" section).
The goal of the system is to:
monitor the efficiency of the system;
indicate an increase in emissions
due to vehicle malfunction;
indicate the need to replace
components which have deteriorated.
The system also has a connector
that can be interfaced with appropriate
equipment, which makes it possible
to read the error codes stored in the
control unit together with a series
of specific parameters for engine
operation and diagnosis.
This check can also be carried out by
traffic control authorities.
IMPORTANT After eliminating the
failure, to check the system completely,
Fiat Dealerships run a bench test and,
if necessary, road tests which may
also call for a long journey.
WARNING
47)If, when the ignition key is turned to
MAR, thewarning light does not
switch on, switches on constantly or
flashes when driving (on certain versions
together with the message on the display),
contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible. The operation of
warning
light may be checked by the traffic police
using specific devices. Always comply with
the traffic regulations in force in the
country where you are driving.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
The warning light switches on together with (where the instrument panel permits) a specific message and/or acoustic warning.
These indications are indicative and precautionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/or alternative to
the information contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases. Always refer to the
information in this section in the event of a failure warning.
IMPORTANT Failure indications displayed are divided into two categories: very serious and less serious failures. Serious faults
are indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning "cycle". Less serious faults are indicated by a warning "cycle" with a shorter
duration. The display cycle of both categories can be interrupted. The instrument panel warning light will stay on until the
cause of the malfunction is eliminated.

redLOW BRAKE FLUID/HANDBRAKE APPLIED
The warning light switches on when the key is turned to
MAR-ON, but it should switch off after a few seconds.
Low brake fluid level
The warning light turns on when the level of the brake
fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum level,
possibly due to a leak in the circuit.Restore the brake fluid level, then check that the
warning light has switched off.
If the warning light turns on when travelling (on certain
versions together with the message on the display) stop
the vehicle immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
Handbrake applied
The warning light switches on when the handbrake is
engaged.Release the handbrake, then check that the warning
light has switched off.
If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat Dealership.

may suddenly lock and the vehicle may swerve when
braking sharply.
The display shows the dedicated message.Drive very carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to
have the system inspected immediately.
redAIR BAG FAILURE

(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on constantly with the
vehicle stationary and the driver's side or passenger
side seat belt (in versions where provided) not fastened.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
The warning light comes on when the ignition key
is turned to MAR, but should go off after a few
seconds. The warning light turns on when the
engine is overheated.
The display shows the dedicated message.In normal driving conditions: stop the car, switch off the engine
and check that the water level in the reservoir is not below the
MIN mark. In this case, wait for the engine to cool down, then
slowly and carefully open the cap, top up with coolant and
check that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on
the reservoir itself. Also check visually for any fluid leaks. If,
when restarting, the warning light switches on again, contact a
Fiat Dealership.
If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions (e.g. in
high-performance driving): slow down and, if the warning light
stays on, stop the vehicle. Wait for 2 or 3 minutes with the
engine running and slightly accelerated to further favour the
coolant circulation. Then stop the engine. Check that the
coolant level is correct as described above.
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to keep
the engine on and slightly accelerated for a few minutes before
switching it off.
