rear seat to carry luggage. The
load could be thrown forward into
the backrest of the front seats,
seriously injuring the occupants.

positioned carefully and fixed to
the hooks on the floor to prevent
them being flung forwards in
the event of sharp braking and
causing injury to the passengers.

the increased responsiveness
of the vehicle to side wind.
9) Never exceed the maximum
permitted loads (see chapter
“Technical specifications”).
HEADLIGHTS
LIGHT BEAM
ALIGNMENT
The correct alignment of the
headlights is essential for the
comfort and safety of the driver and
other road users. To ensure the
best visibility when travelling with the
headlights on, the headlight
alignment must be correct. Contact
a Fiat Dealership to have the
headlights checked and adjusted.
HEADLIGHT
ALIGNMENT
CORRECTOR
This device works with the ignition
key in the MAR position and the
dipped beam headlights on.
The vehicle tilts backwards when it
is laden, raising the beam. The
beams must therefore be realigned
in this case.Headlight alignment

Press theandfig. 109
buttons on the control panel to
adjust.
The display located on the
instrument panel provides a visual
indication of the adjustment
position.
Position 0 - one or two people in the
front seats.
Position 1 - five people.
Position 2 - five people + load in the
luggage compartment.
Position 3 - driver + maximum
permitted load stowed in the
luggage compartment.
IMPORTANT Check the light beam
alignment every time the load
transported changes.

OCCUPANT
PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
The most important safety
equipment of the vehicle comprises
the following protection systems:
❒seat belts;
❒SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;
❒head restraints;
❒child restraint systems;
❒front airbags and side bags.
Read the information given the
following pages with the utmost
care. It is of fundamental importance
that the protection systems are
used in the correct way to
guarantee the maximum possible
safety level for the driver and the
passengers.
SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT
BELTS
The seat belt should be worn
keeping the torso straight and
rested against the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the
tongue A fig. 119 and insert it into
the buckle B, until it clicks into
place.
If the seat belt jams during removal,
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.
61) 62)
Through the retractor, the seat belt
automatically adapts to the body
of the occupant wearing it, allowing
freedom of movement.
The retractor may lock up when the
vehicle is parked on a steep slope:
this is perfectly normal. Furthermore,
the retractor mechanism locks the
belt if it is pulled sharply or in the
event of sudden braking, collisions
and high-speed bends.
All rear seats (for Doblò/Doblò
Combi versions) are fitted
with inertia seat belts with three
anchor points and a retractor.
The rear seat belts (for Doblò/Doblò
Combi versions) must be worn as
shown infig. 120 - fig. 121.

IMPORTANT The backrest is
correctly secured when the red
band fig. 122 on backrest folding
handles A disappears. This red band
indicates that the backrest is not
secured.IMPORTANT After putting the rear
seats (for Doblò/Doblò Combi
versions) back to their normal
operating position, refit the seat belt
so that it is ready for use.
63)
ADJUSTING THE SEAT
BELT HEIGHT
64) 65)
The seat belt height can be adjusted
to various positions using the
regulator on the central pillar.
Always adjust the height of the seat
belts to fit the person wearing it:
this precaution could greatly reduce
the risk of injury in the event of
collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained
when the belt passes approximately
half way between the shoulder
and the neck.
WARNING
61) Never press button C fig. 119
when travelling.
62) Remember that, in the event of a
violent collision, back-seat
passengers not wearing seat belts
represent a serious danger to
the front-seat passengers as well
as to themselves.
63) Make sure that the backrest is
correctly secured on both sides
(red bands B not visible) to
prevent it from moving forward in
the event of sharp braking,
causing injuries to passengers.
64) The height of the seat belts must
be adjusted with the vehicle
stationary.
65) After the height adjustment,
always check that the regulator is
locked in one of the preset
positions. To do this, push
downwards to enable the locking
device to click if the grip has
not been released in one of the
possible positions.

IMPORTANT Each seat belt must be
used by only one person. Never
travel with a child sitting on the
passenger's lap and a single belt to
protect them both fig. 125. In
general, do not place any objects
between the person and the belt.
68)
MAINTENANCE OF THE
SEAT BELTS
For keeping the seat belts in efficient
conditions, carefully observe the
following warnings:
❒always use the seat belt well
stretched and never twisted; make
sure that it is free to run without
obstructions;❒replace the belt after an accident of a
certain severity even if it does not
appear to be damaged. Always
replace the belt if the pretensioners
were deployed;
❒to clean the belt, wash by hand with
water and neutral soap, rinse and
leave to dry in the shade. Never use
strong detergents, bleach, paints
or any other chemical substance
which could damage the belt fibres;
❒prevent the retractors from getting
wet: their correct operation is only
guaranteed if water does not get
inside;
❒replace the seat belt when it shows
wear or cuts.
WARNING
66) The pretensioner may be used
only once. After it is triggered,
have it replaced at a Fiat
Dealership.
67) For maximum protection, keep
the backrest upright, lean back
into it and make sure the seat belt
fits closely across your chest
and pelvis. Always fasten the seat
belts on both the front and the
rear seats! Travelling without
wearing seat belts will increase
the risk of serious injury and even
death in the event of an accident.
68) If the belt has been subjected to
a high level of stress, for example
after an accident, it must be
completely replaced together with
the attachments, attachment
fixing screws and the
pretensioner. In fact, even if the
belt has no visible defects, it could
have lost its resilience.

SAFETY
PASSENGER SEAT COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATIONS ON UNIVERSAL
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM USE
The Fiat Doblò (only for vehicles designed to carry people), (homologation M1) complies with the new European
Directive 2000/3/EC which governs the arrangement possibilities for child restraint systems on the seats of the
vehicle as shown in the following table:
Group Weight range Front passenger Rear passenger (1st row)Rear passenger
(2nd row)
Group 0, 0+ up to 13 kgUU X
Group 1 9 - 18 kgUU X
Group 2 15 - 25 kgUU X
Group 3 22 - 36 kgUU X
U= suitable for child restraint systems in the "Universal" category, according to European Regulation EEC-R44 for the specified "Groups".
X= seat not suitable for children in this weight category.

ISOFIX CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
SETUP
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
Only for vehicles designed to carry
people, (homologation M1),
provision has been made on some
versions to fit a Universal Isofix child
restraint system, a new European
standardised system for carrying
children safely.
Isofix systems can be fitted
alongside a traditional child restraint
system. An example of a child
restraint system is shown in fig. 130.
The Universal Isofix child restraint
system covers weight group 1.
Specific Isofix child restraint systems
cover the other weight groups.
These seats must be designed,
tested and type-approved
specifically for this vehicle (refer to
the list of vehicles attached to the
child restraint system).Due to its different anchoring
system, the child restraint system
must be attached to the dedicated
lower metal rings A fig. 131, located
between the backrest and rear
cushion. After removing the rear
parcel shelf (if present), secure the
upper belt (provided with the child
restraint system) to ring B fig. 132
(one on each side) located behind
the rear seat cushion.
NoteTo prevent possible scoring of
the table seat backrest, with folded
rear seat (for versions/markets,
where provided), anchorage ring
Isofix B fig. 132 (one on each side) is
covered with a cloth cap, to be
removed for correctly fastening the
child restraint system.
