SYMBOLS
Special coloured labels have been at-
tached near or actually on some of the
components of your Fiat Doblò. These
labels bear symbols that remind you of
the precautions to be taken as regards
that particular component.
Plate A-fig. 1summarising the sym-
bols used can be found under the bon-
net.
THE FIAT CODE
SYSTEM
To further protect your vehicle from
theft, it has been fitted with an engine
immobilising system (Fiat CODE sys-
tem) which is automatically activated
when the ignition key is removed.
An electronic device, in fact, is fitted
in each ignition key grip. The device
transmits a radio-frequency signal
when the engine is started through a
special aerial built into the ignition
switch. The modulate signal, which
changes each time the engine is start-
ed, is the password by means of which
the control unit recognises the key
and enables to start the engine.KEYS fig. 2
The following keys are provided with
the vehicle:
– two keys Awhen the vehicle is not
equipped with remote control;
– key Aand key Bwhen the vehicle
is equipped with door lock remote
control.
– Key Ais the key that is used nor-
mally. It will:

– lock/unlock the rear doors or the
tailgate;
– lock/unlock the side doors, Cargo
versions only;
– deactivate the passenger’s airbag.
The key B, with a built-in remote
control, has the same functions as key
Ain vehicles with door lock remote
control.
The CODE card fig. 3is also sup-
plied with the keys and bears the fol-
lowing:
a- the electronic code to be used for
emergency starting (see “Emergency
start-up” in section “In an emer-
gency”);b- the mechanical key code to be
given to the Fiat Dealershipwhen
ordering duplicate keys.
Keep the CODE card in a safe place.
Make sure you have the electronic
code of the CODE card with you at all
times in the event you have to per-
form an emergency start-up.
OPERATION
Each time the ignition key is turned
to STOP, or PARK, the protection
system will automatically immobilise
the engine.
When the key is turned to MARto
start the engine:
1)if the code is recognised the ¢
(Y) warning light on the instrument
panel will flash briefly; this means the
protection system has recognised the
key code and deactivates the immo-
biliser, turn the key to AVV, and the
engine will start.
2)If the warning light ¢(Y) stays
on, the code was not recognised. In
this case, turn the key to STOPand
then back to MAR. If the engine re-mains immobilised, try with the oth-
er key provided.
If you are still unable to start the en-
gine, use the emergency starting pro-
cedure (see “In an emergency”) and
take your vehicle to the nearest Fiat
Dealership.
When the vehicle is travelling and the
key is at MAR:
1)if the warning light ¢(Y) comes
on while the vehicle is moving, this
means that the system is running a self-
test (e.g. due to a voltage drop).
2)if the warning light ¢(Y) flash-
es, the vehicle is not protected by the
engine immobiliser. Contact a Fiat
Dealershipimmediately and get them
to store the codes of all the keys in the
memory.
IMPORTANT The electronic com-
ponents inside the key may be dam-
aged if the key is subjected to sharp
knocks.
IMPORTANTEach key provided
with the vehicle has its own code, dif-
ferent from all the others, which must
be stored in the memory of the sys-
tem control unit.

20GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Never remove the igni-
tion key while the vehicle
is moving. The steering
wheel would automatically lock
as soon as you try to turn it. This
also applies when the vehicle is
being towed.
It is absolutely forbidden
to carry out whatever af-
ter-market operation in-
volving steering system or steer-
ing column modifications (e.g.: in-
stallation of anti-theft device)
that could badly affect perfor-
mance and safety, cause the lapse
of warranty and also result in
non-compliance of the vehicle
with homologation require-
ments.
IGNITION DEVICE
The key can be turned to 4 different
positions fig. 26:
– STOP:engine off, key can be re-
moved, steering column locked. Some
electrical devices can be worked (e.g.
sound system, electric window
winders).
– MAR: drive position. All electrical
devices can be used.
– AVV: engine ignition.
– PARK:engine off, parking lights
on, steering column locked. Press but-
ton Aand turn the key to PARK.

If the ignition device is
tampered with (e.g.: at-
tempted theft), have it
checked over by a Fiat Dealership
as soon as possible.
When you get out of the
vehicle, always remove
the ignition key. This will
prevent anyone from accidental-
ly working the controls. Remem-
ber to apply the handbrake and,
if the vehicle is faced down on a
steep slope engage the first gear.
If it is facing up, engage the re-
verse gear. Never leave unsuper-
vised children in the vehicle.
STEERING COLUMN LOCK
To engage the lock: remove the
ignition key at STOPor PARKand
turn the steering wheel until it locks.
To release the lock: rock the
steering wheel slightly as you turn the
ignition key to MAR.

IMPORTANTThe electronic sys-
tem progressively blocks fuel flow to
prevent engine from overrevving. This
will lead to a progressive loss of en-
gine power. When the engine is idling,
the rev counter may indicate a grad-
ual or sudden highering of the speed.
This is normal as it takes place during
normal operation, for example when
activating the climate control system
or the fan. In particular a slow change
in the speed preserves the battery
charge.

FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
The needle shows the fuel present in
the tank. When the fuel reserve warn-
ing light A-fig. 35 - 36 comes on (on
certain versions with the dedicated
message on the reconfigurable multi-
function display) it means that there
are approximately 5-7 litres of fuel left
in the tank.
E- tank empty.
F - tank full.
Never travel with the tank almost
empty: lack of fuel could damage the
catalyser.IMPORTANTThe needle will
point to Eand the reserve warning
light Awill flash to indicate a fault in
the system. Contact a Fiat Dealer-
shipto have the system checked.
ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE GAUGE
This gauge shows the temperature of
the engine coolant fluid and begins
working when the fluid temperature
exceeds approx. 50 °C.
Under normal conditions, the needle
should move to different positions of
the scale according to the working
conditions and engine cooling condi-
tions.

C- Low engine coolant temperature
H- High engine coolant temperature
Warning light B-fig. 35 - 37 comes
on (on certain versions with the ded-
icated message on the reconfigurable
multifunction display) to indicate that
engine coolant temperature is too
high; in this event stop the engine and
contact Fiat Dealership.
