Check that it is safe to
open a door before doing
so.
Make sure that the left-
hand sliding side door is
completely closed before
refuelling (see “At the filling sta-
tion” in this chapter). You could
damage the door and the sliding
lock system which comes into
play when the fuel flap is open.
You cannot open the
left-hand sliding side door
while refuelling when the
flap is open (see “At the filling
station” in this chapter).
SIDE DOORSIn Doblò Cargo versions, the side
sliding door is fitted with a catch which
stops it when it is fully open: to release
the catch, simply push the door against
the catch and pull it forwards force-
fully.
In any case, always make sure that
the door is correctly fastened in the
door open catch.
Do not leave the vehicle
parked on a steep slope
with the sliding door
open. An involuntary knock could
release the door and make it
slide.
When leaving the vehi-
cle parked with the sliding
doors open, always check
that the door hooks are properly
fastened into the retaining device
to ensure it remains fully open.
Improper use of the
electric windows can be
dangerous. Before and
during their operation ensure
that any passengers are not at
risk from the moving glass either
by personal objects getting
caught in the mechanism or by
being injured by it directly. Al-
ways remove the ignition key
when you get out of the vehicle
to prevent the electric windows
being operated accidentally and
constituting a danger to the peo-
ple left in the vehicle.
On driver’s side there is a button A-
fig. 109for automatic operation.
Press the button for longer than one
second: the window will stop when it
reaches the end of its travel (or until
the button is pressed again).

REAR DOUBLE DOORS
The double rear doors are fitted with
a catch which stops the opening at an
angle of approximately 90°.
The catch system is de-
signed to ensure the best
comfort in use. An acci-
dental knock or gust of wind
could release the doors and make
them close.
It is possible to increase the
opening angle of the two doors to
facilitate loading and unloading
operations. Force the doors
open. This will allow opening the
doors by approximately 180°.Opening the first door from the
outside 1-fig. 114

When using the boot,
make sure the load you
are carrying does not ex-
ceed the permitted weight (see
“Technical specifications”). Also
ensure the items in the boot are
arranged properly to prevent
them being thrown forwards and
injuring passengers should you
brake sharply. Do not travel with
the tailgate open: exhaust gas
could filter into the passenger
compartment.
If you are travelling in
areas where refuelling
can be difficult and you
want to carry a can of petrol, fol-
low the law in force. Use a ho-
mologated can and secure it ad-
equately. Even given these pre-
cautions, the risk of fire in the
event of an accident is increased.
Do not use the key as a
handle to open the tail-
gate. You could damage
it.
The opening of the boot is made eas-
ier by the gas-filed struts on each side.
IMPORTANTFit the key well into
the lock before turning it.
You will be able to open the tailgate
with the key only if you remove the
key from the lock after turning it by 45
degrees.
To close, lower the tailgate until the
lock clicks.

in the boot (see “Headlights” in this
chapter).
Make sure the load does not exceed
the values shown in “Weights” para-
graph, “Technical specifications” chap-
ter for correct operation of the head-
light adjustment device.
Do not knock the tail-
gate into objects on the
roof rack when you open
it.

HEADLIGHTS
ADJUSTING THE
HEADLIGHT BEAM
The correct positioning of the head-
light beams is very important for the
comfort and safety, not only of the
person driving the vehicle but also all
other road users.
This is also covered by a specific law.
To ensure you and other drivers
have the best visibility conditions when
travelling with the headlights on, the
headlights must be set properly.
Have the headlight positioning
checked at a Fiat Dealershipand ad-
justed if necessary.SLANT COMPENSATION
The vehicle is fitted with an electri-
cal device for correcting the headlight
slant. The device can be operated with
ignition key at MARand dipped
beams on.
When the vehicle is loaded, it
“slopes” backwards. This means that
the headlight beam rises. In this case,
it is necessary to return it to the cor-
rect position.
Proceed as follows:
– hold button B-fig. 139pressed to
increase by one position (e.g.: 0➟1,
1➟2, 2➟3);
– hold button Apressed to decrease
by one position (e.g.: 3➟2, 2➟1, 1➟0).
Display Cshows the positions dur-
ing the adjustment.

Manual deactivation
The passenger side airbag can be de-
activated if it is absolutely necessary to
carry a child in the front passenger
seat.
Deactivation / reactivation shall be
carried out with ignition device at
STOP. Turn the specific switch fig.
142on the dashboard on passenger
side with the ignition key.IMPORTANTOperate the switch
only with engine off and ignition key
removed.
The switch fig. 142has two posi-
tions:
– Passenger front airbag on: (position
ON P): instrument panel warning
light
Foff. Do not carry children on
the front seat.
– Passenger front airbag off: (position
OFF F): instrument panel warning
light Fon. A child can be carried on
the front seat with a suitable restraint
system.
Warning light Fon the cluster
stays on permanently until the pas-
senger’s airbag is reactivated.
Deactivation of the passenger’s front
air bag does not inhibit operation of
the side air bag.SERIOUS DANGER:
With passenger’s
air bag active (ON),
never place child’s seats with the
cradle facing backwards since the
air bag activation could cause to
the child serious injuries, even
mortal. In the case of need, al-
ways deactivate the passenger’s
air bag when a child’s seat is
placed on the front seat. The
front passenger’s seat shall be ad-
justed in the most backward po-
sition to prevent any contact be-
tween child’s seat and dashboard.
Even if not compulsory by law,
you are recommended to reac-
tivate the air bag immediately as
soon as child transport is no
longer necessary.

Pretensioners, front airbags and side
airbags are triggered by the electron-
ic control unit according to different
types of impacts. Missed triggering of
the system, consequently, does not in-
dicate a fault in the system.
If when turning the key
to MAR the warning light
¬does not turn on or if it
stays on when travelling there
could be a failure in safety sys-
tems; in this event air bags or
pretensioners could not trigger in
case of impact or, in a minor
number of cases, they could trig-
ger accidentally. Contact Fiat
Dealership immediately to have
the system checked.When the passenger’s
front airbag is active (pas-
senger front airbag deac-
tivation switch at ON), the
F
warning light will come on for ap-
proximately four seconds and
flash for other four seconds when
the ignition key is turned to MAR
to remind the driver than the
passenger’s front and side airbags
(where fitted) will be fired in the
event of a crash. The warning
light should go out immediately
afterwards.
If an attempt has been
made to steal the vehicle,
or if it has actually been
stolen or has been vandalised in
any way or subjected to flooding,
have the airbag system checked
over at a Fiat Dealership.The front air bag is trig-
gered for shocks greater
in magnitude that the
pretensioners. For impacts be-
tween these two thresholds, it is
therefore normal that only the
pretensioners are triggered.
Do not apply stickers or
other objects to the
steering wheel or to the
dashboard on the passenger’s
side. Do not travel with objects
on your lap or in front of you nor
with a pipe, pencil or similar be-
tween your lips; you could seri-
ously hurt yourself if the airbag
inflates in a collision.
