KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

Warning lights on
panelWhat it means What to do
redBrake booster vacuum low
The warning light switches on in the event of brake
servo failure; in this case the pedal can become stiff
while braking.This failure in the brake servo does not affect the
braking efficiency of the system, but the power assisted
steering is reduced. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have
the vehicle checked.
IMPORTANT The brake system uses an electric pump
to increase the brake servo vacuum. In certain driving
situations, the device operation could be felt, but this
condition IS PART OF THE STANDARD SYSTEM
OPERATION.
red
amber
amberEBD FAILURE
The simultaneous switching on of the
(red),
(amber) and(amber) warning lights (for
versions/markets, where provided) with the engine on
indicates either an anomaly of the EBD system or that
the system is not available. In this case, the rear wheels
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.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

ACTIVE SAFETY
SYSTEMS
The vehicle has the following active
safety systems:
ABS;
EBD system;
Brake Assist system;
ESC system;
ASR system;
Hill Holder system;
MSR system;
For the operation of the systems, see
the following pages.
ABS SYSTEM
This is an integral part of the braking
system, which prevents one or more
wheels from locking and slipping
regardless of the road surface
conditions and braking intensity,
ensuring control of the vehicle even
during emergency braking.
The Electronic Braking Force
Distribution (EBD) system completes
the system allowing the brake force to
be distributed between the front and
rear wheels.
IMPORTANT To get the maximum
efficiency of the braking system,
a bedding-in period of about 500 km is
needed: during this period it is better
to avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged
braking.
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can feel that the ABS has
come into action because the brake
pedal pulsates slightly and the system
gets noisier: it means that the vehicle
speed should be altered to suit the type
of road surface.
50) 51) 52)
FAULT INDICATIONS
ABS fault
ABS failure is indicated by the
warning light on the instrument
panel coming on (together with the
appropriate message on the
multifunction display on some versions)
(see “Warning lights and messages”).
In this case, the braking system will still
be effective, although without the
extra capacity offered by the ABS.
Drive carefully to the nearest Fiat
Dealership to have the system
checked.
EBD failure
ABS failure is indicated by the
and
warning lights on the instrument
panel coming on (together with the
appropriate message on the
multifunction display on some versions)
(see “Warning lights and messages”).
In this case, the rear wheels may
suddenly lock and the vehicle may
swerve when braking sharply. Drive
carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership
to have the system checked.

BRAKE ASSIST
(emergency braking
assistance integrated in
ESC)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This system (which cannot be
deactivated) recognises emergency
braking conditions according to the
speed of operation of the brake pedal
and provides an additional hydraulic
braking pressure to support that
provided by the driver. This allows
faster and more powerful operation of
the braking system.
Brake Assist is deactivated on the
versions equipped with ESP, in the
event of ESC system failure (indicated
by the
warning light coming on
together with a message in the
multifunction display, where provided).
WARNING
50)When the ABS cuts in and you feel the
brake pedal pulsating, do not remove
your foot, but keep the pedal pushed
down; in doing so you, will stop in the
shortest distance possible under the road
conditions at the time.
51)If the ABS system intervenes, this
indicates that the traction of the tyres on
the road is nearing its limit. You must slow
down to a speed compatible with the
available traction.52)The ABS gets the most from the
available grip, but it cannot improve it; you
should therefore take every care when
driving on slippery surfaces and not take
unnecessary risks.
53)If only the
instrument panel
warning light comes on (with a message in
the multifunction display on some
versions), stop the vehicle immediately and
contact the nearest Fiat Dealership. Any
loss of fluid will affect the brake system
functionality, both conventional and
ant-lock wheels.
ESC (Electronic
Stability Control)
SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
IN BRIEF
This is an electronic system that
controls vehicle stability in the event
of tyre grip loss, helping to maintain
directional control.
The ESC system is therefore
particularly useful when grip
conditions of road surfaces change.
The MSR system (adjustment of
the engine braking torque during gear
changes) and the HBA system
(automatic increase in the braking
pressure during emergency braking)
are present with ESC, ASR and
Hill Holder systems (for
versions/markets where provided).
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
This is signalled by the flashing of the
warning light in the instrument panel,
to inform the driver that the vehicle is
in critical stability and grip conditions.
78
SAFETY

MSR system (engine drive
regulation)
The system prevents the drive wheels
from possibly locking, which could
happen, for example, if the accelerator
pedal is released suddenly or in the
case of a sudden downshifting in
conditions of poor grip.
In these conditions, the engine braking
effect could cause the drive wheels
to slip, resulting in a loss of vehicle
stability. In these situations, the MSR
system intervenes, restoring torque to
the engine in order to conserve vehicle
stability and increase safety.
Engagement/disengagement of the
ASR system
The ASR system switches on
automatically each time the engine is
started.
Whilst driving, the ASR can be switched
off and subsequently switched on
again by pressing the fig. 99 button on
the dashboard.
Switching off is shown by the
warning light on the instrument panel
switching on and a dedicated message
shown in the multifunction display,
where provided.
If the ASR is switched off while driving,
it is automatically switched on again
when the car is started up.When travelling on snowy roads with
snow chains, it may be helpful to turn
the ASR off: in fact, in these conditions,
the driving wheels skidding when
moving off gives you better traction.
FAULT INDICATIONS
In the event of a fault, the ASR will be
automatically switched off and the
warning light will appear
permanently on the instrument panel
along with a message on the
multifunction display, where provided
(see “Warning lights and messages”). In
this case, contact the Fiat Service
Network as soon as possible.
WARNING
54)ESC performance features must not
induce the driver to take unnecessary
or unfounded risks. Your driving style must
always be suited to the road conditions,
visibility and traffic. The driver is always
responsible for road safety.55)For the correct operation of the ESC
and ASR system it is vital that the tyres are
the same make and the same type on all
the wheels, in perfect condition and, above
all, the recommended type and size.

SAFETY

OCCUPANT
PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
The most important safety equipment
of the vehicle comprises the following
protection systems:
seat belts;
SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;
head restraints;
child restraint systems;
front airbags and side bags.
Read the information given the
following pages with the utmost care. It
is of fundamental importance that the
protection systems are used in the
correct way to guarantee the maximum
possible safety level for the driver and
the passengers.
SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS
All vehicle seats are equipped with seat
belts with three anchor points and a
retractor. The retractor mechanism
operates locking the belt in the event of
sharp braking or strong deceleration
due to an impact.
This allows the belt strap to slide freely
and to adapt to the body of the
occupant. In the event of an accident,
the belt will lock reducing the risk of
impact inside the passenger
compartment and of being projected
outside the vehicle. The driver is
responsible for respecting, and
ensuring that all the other occupants of
the vehicle also respect, the local laws
in force in relation to the use of the seat
belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before
setting off.
The seat belt should be worn keeping
the chest straight and rested against
the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the
tongue A fig. 100 and insert it into the
buckle B, until it clicks into place.
If the seat belt jams during removal, let
it rewind for a short stretch, then pull
it out again without jerking.To unfasten the seat belts, press button
C. Guide the seat belt with your hand
while it is rewinding, to prevent it from
twisting.
56) 57)
The retractor may lock up when the
vehicle is parked on a steep slope: this
is perfectly normal. Furthermore, the
retractor mechanism locks the belt if it
is pulled sharply or in the event of
sudden braking, collisions and
high-speed bends.
All rear seats (for Doblò/Doblò Combi
versions) are fitted with inertia seat belts
with three anchor points and a
retractor.
The rear seat belts (for Doblò/Doblò
Combi versions) must be worn as
shown in fig. 101 - fig. 102.
