Service (Programmed maintenance)
Through this function it is possible to display information
related to regular maintenance intervals.
This information can be consulted as follows:
– press SET ESC: the service intervals appear in the dis-
play in km or mi, depending on the previous setting (see
“Unit of distance” paragraph);
– press the SET ESC button to return to the menu screen
or hold the button down to return to the standard screen.
N.B. The „Scheduled Servicing Plan” provides for the ve-
hicle to be serviced every 30,000 km/35,000 km (depending
on the version) (or the equivalent in miles). This is auto-
matically displayed, when the ignition key is at MAR, from
2,000 km (or the equivalent in miles) and reappears every
200 km (or the equivalent in miles). Below 200 km the
reminders become more frequent. The indication will ap-
pear in kilometres or miles depending on the measure-
ment unit settings. When the next scheduled service is ap-
proaching, the message „Service” will appear on the dis-
play, followed by the number of kilometres or miles left,
when the key is turned to MAR. Go to the Fiat Service
Network, where the „Planned Maintenance Programme”
operations will be performed and the message will be re-
set.

ume of the buzzer that can be heard when the SET ESC,

the display;
– press ▲or ▼to adjust the value;
– press the SET ESC button to go back to the menu screen
or hold the button down to go back to the standard screen
without saving.

Through the reel, the belt automatically adapts to the body
of the passenger wearing it, allowing freedom of move-
ment.
The reel may lock up when the vehicle is parked on a steep
slope: this is perfectly normal. Furthermore, the reel mech-
anism locks the belt if it is pulled sharply or in the event
of sudden braking, collisions and high-speed bends.SEAT BELT S
USING THE SEAT BELTS fig. 110
Wear the belt keeping the torso upright and rested against
the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold tongue A-fig. 110 and insert
it into buckle B until it locks into place.
If the seat belt jams, 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.
SAFETY
Never press button C-fig. 110 when trav-
elling.
WARNING
All rear seats are fitted with inertia seat belts with three
anchor points and a reel.
Remember that, in the event of a violent
collision, back-seat passengers not wear-
ing seat belts represent a serious danger to the
front-seat passengers as well as to themselves.

The rear seat belts must be worn as shown in figs. 111a-
111b.
IMPORTANT The backrest is correctly secured when the
red band next to the levers A-fig. 112 disappears. This red
band indicates that the backrest is not secured.
Make sure the backrest is properly secured
at both sides (red bands B not visible) to
prevent it moving forward in the event of sharp
braking, causing injuries to passengers.
WARNING
IMPORTANT When putting the seats back to their nor-
mal position, make sure the seat belts are positioned so
they are ready to use.

SBR SYSTEM
The vehicle is equipped with the SBR (Seat Belt Reminder)
system, which warns the driver (on all versions) and the
front passenger (on Doblò/Doblò Combi versions) if their
seat belt is not fastened, as follows:
❒warning light sounds continuously for the first six seconds;
❒warning light mittently for the next 90 seconds.
For permanent deactivation, contact a Fiat Dealership.
The SBR system can also be reactivated through the set-
up menu.
PRETENSIONERS
To increase the protective efficiency of the front seat belts,
the vehicle is fitted with pretensioners. These devices, in
the event of a violent head-on crash or side impact, rewind
the seat belts a few centimetres. In this way, they ensure
that the belts fit tightly to the wearer before the restraining
action begins.
The seat belt reel locks to indicate that the pretensioner
has cut in; the seat belt cannot be drawn back up even
when guided manually.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest degree of protection
from the action of the pretensioning device, wear the seat
belt so it fits snugly over the chest and hips.
A small amount of smoke may be produced when the pre-
tensioners cut in. This smoke is not toxic and does not in-
dicate a fire.
The pretensioner does not require any maintenance or lu-
brication. Anything that modifies its original conditions in-
validates its efficiency. If, due to unusual natural events
(floods, sea storms, etc.), the device has been affected by
water and mud, it absolutely must be replaced.

The pretensioner can be used only once. Go
to a Fiat Dealership to have it replaced af-
ter it has been deployed. See the label inside the
glove box to check the status of the device; go to
a Fiat Dealership when it is time to replace it.
WARNING
Operations which lead to knocks, vibrations
or localised heating (over 100 °C for a max-
imum of six hours) in the area around the
pretensioners may damage or trigger them. These
devices are not affected by vibrations caused by un-
even road surfaces or low obstacles such as kerbs,
etc. Contact a Fiat Dealership for any assistance.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE
SEAT BELTS
The driver is responsible for respecting (and ensuring that
all the other passengers also respect) the local laws in force
regarding the use of seat belts. Always fasten the seat belts
before setting off.
Seat belts must also be worn by expectant mothers: the
risk of injury in the event of an accident is greatly reduced
for them and the unborn child if they are wearing a seat
belt. Pregnant women must position the lower part of the
belt very low down so that it passes over the hips and
under the abdomen (see fig. 113).
LOAD LIMITERS
(for versions/markets where provided)
To increase passenger safety, the front and rear (for ver-
sions/markets where provided) seat belt reels contain a
load limiter which controls the force acting on the chest
and shoulders during the belt restraining action in the
event of a head-on collision.

IMPORTANT The belt must not be twisted. The upper
part must cross the shoulder and the chest diagonally. The
lower part must fit over the hips (as shown in fig. 114)
rather than the abdomen of the passenger. Do not use de-
vices (clips, clamps, etc.) that prevent the belts from being
snug to the passenger’s body.
For maximum protection, keep the back-
rest straight: lean back into the backrest
and keep the seat belt fairly tight across the chest
and hips. Always fasten the seat belts on both the
front and the rear seats! Travelling without seat
belts will increase the risk of severe injury and even
death in the event of an accident.
Never disassemble or tamper with the seat belt or
pretensioner components. All operations must be
performed by qualified and authorised personnel.
Always contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
IMPORTANT Each seat belt should be used by only one
person: never travel with a child sitting on the passenger’s
lap with a single belt to protect them both fig. 115. Do not
fasten other objects to the body.
