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:
– start the engine;
– lock/unlock front doors;

– 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.

8GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
DUPLICATE KEYS
When additional keys are required,
go to your Fiat Dealershiptaking all
the keys in your possession and the
CODE card with you. The Fiat Deal-
ershipwill store the old and new keys
(up to eight) in the system. The Fiat
Dealershipmay ask you to demon-
strate that you own the vehicle.
The codes of any keys that are not
handed over when the new storage
procedure is carried out will be delet-
ed from the memory to prevent any
lost or stolen keys being used to start
the vehicle.
All the keys and the CODE card
must be handed over to the new own-
er when selling the vehicle.DOOR LOCK
REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control is built into the
ignition key. Press button A-fig. 4to
lock and unlock the doors.
Press button Ato operate the sys-
tem. LED B(where required) will flash
while the transmitter is sending the
code to the receiver.
The ceiling light and map-reading light
will come on for the predefined time
when the doors are unlocked with the
remote control.For ordering additional remote con-
trols or replacing the batteries, see the
following paragraphs.
IMPORTANTThe remote control
system frequency can be disturbed by
significant radio transmissions outside
the vehicle (e.g: mobile phones, HAM
radio systems, etc.) that could cause
remote control malfunctioning.
Ministerial homologation
In accordance with the legislation
covering radio frequencies in force in
each country, we should like to point
out that:
– the market-specific homologation
numbers are listed in the paragraph
“Radio-frequency remote controls” in
section “Technical specifications”.
– for markets requiring transmitter
marking, the transmitter code is print-
ed on the remote control.

ORDERING ADDITIONAL
REMOTE CONTROLS
The system can recognise up to 8
keys with incorporated remote con-
trol.
If additional remote controls are re-
quired for any reasons, go to a Fiat
Dealership, taking all the keys you
own and the CODE card with you.
REPLACING THE BATTERIES
Change the batteries (using spare
batteries of the same kind) as follows.
Open the plastic case by inserting a
screwdriver in recess A-fig. 5. Insert
new batteries Brespecting the polar-
ity and close the plastic case.SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS
The belt should be worn keeping the
chest straight and rested against the
seat back.
Take hold of the tongue A-fig. 6. In-
sert it into the buckle B, until you hear
it clicks.
At removal, if it jams, let it rewind for
a short stretch, then pull it out again
without jerking.
Used batteries are
harmful to the environ-
ment. They should be dis-
posed of as specified by law in the
special containers provided, or
take them to a Fiat Dealership,
which will deal with their dispos-
al.

118DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE
The following precautions should be
taken if the vehicle will not be used for
several months:
– Park the vehicle in covered, dry and
if possible well-ventilated premises.
– Engage a gear.
– Make sure the handbrake is not en-
gaged.
– Remove the cables from the bat-
tery terminals (first remove the cable
to the negative terminal), and check
the battery charge. If the vehicle is to
be stored for long periods the charge
of the battery should be checked
every month and recharged if it falls
below 12.5V.IMPORTANT Where relevant,
switch off the electronic alarm with the
remote control.
– Clean and protect the painted parts
using protective wax.
– Clean and protect the shiny metal
parts using special compounds readi-
ly available.
– Sprinkle talcum powder on the
rubber windscreen and rear window
wiper blades and lift them off the glass.
– Slightly open the windows.– Cover the vehicle with a cloth or
perforated plastic sheet. Do not use
sheets of non-perforated plastic as
they do not allow moisture on the ve-
hicle body to evaporate.
– Inflate the tyres to 0.5 bar above
the normal specified pressure and
check it at intervals.
– Do not drain the engine cooling
system.

144IN AN EMERGENCY
IF THE BATTERY
IS FLAT
First of all, read the “Vehicle main-
tenance” section for the steps to be
taken to avoid the battery running
down and to ensure it has a long life.
IF THE BATTERY IS FLAT
Charging should be slow at a low
amp rating for 24 hours. Charging for
a longer time may damage the battery.
Proceed as follows:
1) Disconnect the electrical system
from the battery terminals.
IMPORTANTWhere relevant,
switch the electronic alarm off with
the remote control.2)Connect the charger cables to the
battery terminals.
3)Turn on the charger.
4)When you have finished, turn the
charger off before disconnecting the
battery.
5)Reconnect the cables to the bat-
tery terminals. Make sure the polari-
ty is correct.JUMP STARTING
See “Jump starting”, in this chapter.
The liquid in the battery
is poisonous and corro-
sive. Do not let it touch
the skin or eyes. Recharging the
battery should be done in a well-
ventilated area away from naked
flames or possible sources of
sparks: explosion and fire risk.
Do not attempt to
recharge a frozen bat-
tery. Thaw it first other-
wise it could explode. If the bat-
tery froze, make sure that the in-
ternal elements are not broken
(short-circuit risk) and that the
casing is not cracked (risk of
spilling the poisonous and corro-
sive fluid).
Under no circumstances
should a battery charger
be used to start the en-
gine: it could damage the elec-
tronic systems and in particular
the ignition and injection control
units.
