TOWING THE
VEHICLE
The tow ring provided with the vehicle
is located in the tool box behind the left
seat backrest (Cargo versions) or in
the boot (Doblò / Doblò Combi
versions).
ATTACHING THE TOW
HOOK
Proceed as follows:
release the cap A fig. 188-fig. 189;
take the tow hook B from the tool
bag;
fully screw the hook onto the
threaded front or rear pin.
129) 130) 131)
39)
Versions with COMFORT-MATIC
transmission or DUALOGIC™
transmission
Make sure that the gearbox is in neutral
(N) (checking that the vehicle moves
when pushed) and proceed in the same
way as for towing a normal vehicle
with a manual transmission.
If the gear lever cannot be put in
neutral, do not tow the vehicle, but
contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
129)Before towing, turn the ignition key to
MAR-ON and then to STOP without
removing it. The steering column
will automatically lock when the key is
removed and the wheels cannot be
steered.130)Before tightening the ring, clean the
threaded housing thoroughly. Make sure
that the ring is fully fastened in the housing
before towing the vehicle. Do not start
the engine whilst the vehicle is being
towed.
131)When towing, remember that greater
effort is required on the brake pedal in
order to brake, since the brake servo is not
providing assistance. Do not use flexible
cables when towing and avoid jerky
movements. During towing operations,
make sure that the fastened joint does not
damage adjoining components. When
towing the vehicle, it is necessary to obey
specific road regulations which relate
both to the towing device as well as to the
behaviour to adopt on the road. Do not
start the engine whilst the vehicle is being
towed.
WARNING
39)The front and rear tow hooks should
be used only for emergencies on the road.
You are allowed to tow the vehicle for
short distances using an appropriate
device in accordance with the highway
code (a rigid bar), to move the vehicle on
the road in readiness for towing or
transport via a breakdown vehicle. Tow
hooks MUST NOT be used to tow vehicles
off the road or where there are obstacles
and/or for towing operations using cables
or other non-rigid devices. In compliance
with the above conditions, towing must
take place with the two vehicles (one
towing, the other towed) aligned as much
as possible along the same centre line.

SERVICING AND CARE
ENGINE MARKING
It is stamped on the cylinder block and
includes the type and the engine serial
number.
CYLINDER MARKING
45)
Each methane cylinder is identified in
the plant by information stamped on
the cylinder cone.
The plates (provided with the vehicle
documentation) contain the date for the
first inspection of the cylinders.
SYSTEM INSPECTION
The cylinders must be inspected, in
accordance with ECE Regulation
Procedure no. 110, every 4 years from
the vehicle registration date or in
accordance with specific regulations in
individual countries.
WARNING
45)If the vehicle has been registered in a
country other than Italy, the certification
data, identification and inspection
procedures for the methane cylinders
should conform to the legislation in that
country. In any case, it should be
remembered that the life of the cylinders is
20 years from the production date as set
out in ECE Regulation no. 110.

IMPORTANT Note that when using a fuel like methane, the range is extremely variable because in addition to the vehicle
maintenance and driving conditions it also depends on the temperature of the gas in the cylinder. The methane actually heats
up during the refuelling and cools down whilst driving, undergoing variations in pressure that reduce the quantity that can
be used. It should also be pointed out that whilst the vehicle is being run in (up to around 3000 km) the fuel consumption may
be higher than the figures given.

TIPS, CONTROLS
AND GENERAL
INFORMATION
ROAD SAFETY
Learn how to use the various system
functions before setting off.
Read the instructions for the system
carefully before setting off.
147) 148)
RECEPTION CONDITIONS
Reception conditions change
constantly while driving. Reception may
be interfered with by the presence of
mountains, buildings or bridges,
especially when you are far away from
the broadcaster.
IMPORTANT The volume may be
increased when receiving traffic
information and news.
CARE AND
MAINTENANCE
Observe the following precautions to
ensure the system is fully operational:
the display lens should not come
into contact with pointed or rigid
objects which could damage its
surface; use a soft, dry anti-static cloth
to clean and do not press.
never use alcohol, petrol or
petroleum-based solvents to clean the
display screen.
prevent any liquid from entering the
system: this could damage it beyond
repair.
47) 48)
ANTITHEFT PROTECTION
The system is equipped with an
anti-theft protection system based on
the exchange of information with the
electronic control unit (Body Computer)
on the vehicle.
This guarantees maximum safety and
prevents the secret code from being
entered after the power supply has
been disconnected.
If the check has a positive outcome, the
system will start to operate, whereas if
the comparison codes are not the
same or if the electronic control unit
(Body Computer) is replaced, the
system will ask the user to enter the
secret code according to the procedure
described in the paragraph below.
Entering the secret code
When the system is switched on, if the
code is requested, the display will
show "Please enter Anti-Theft Code"
followed by the screen showing a
keypad to enter the secret code.The secret code is made up of four
digits from 0 to 9.
Uconnect™Radio:
To enter the first digit of the code, turn
the "BROWSE/ENTER" right knob
and press to confirm.
After inserting the fourth digit, move the
cursor to "OK" and press the
"BROWSE ENTER" right knob: the
system will start to operate.
Uconnect™5" and 7" HD:
Use the graphic buttons on the display
to enter the code digits. If an incorrect
code is entered, the system displays
"Incorrect Code" to notify the user
of the need to enter the correct code.
After the 3 available attempts to enter
the code, the system displays
"Incorrect Code. Radio locked. Wait for
30 minutes". After the text has
disappeared it is possible to start the
code entering procedure again.
Vehicle radio passport
This document certifies ownership of
the system. The vehicle radio passport
shows the system model, serial number
and secret code.
In the case of loss of the radio
passport, contact the Fiat Dealership,
taking an ID document and the vehicle
ownership documents.
