CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short journeys and frequent cold starts
do not allow the engine to reach
optimum operating temperature.
This results in a significant increase in
consumption levels (from +15 to +30%
on the urban cycle) and emissions.
Traffic and road conditions
Rather high consumption levels are
linked to situations with heavy traffic, for
instance when travelling in queues
with frequent use of the lower gears or
in cities with many traffic lights. Winding
mountain roads and rough road
surfaces also adversely affect
consumption.
Stops in traffic
During prolonged hold-ups (e.g. level
crossings) the engine should be
switched off.TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT
The vehicle must be equipped with a
type-approved tow hook and adequate
electrical system to tow trailers.
Installation should be carried out by
specialised personnel who will issue the
required papers for travelling on roads.
Install any specific and/or additional
door mirrors as specified by the
Highway Code.
Remember that when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, braking
spaces increase and overtaking takes
longer depending on the overall weight.
Engage a low gear when driving
downhill, rather than constantly using
the brake.
The weight of the trailer on the vehicle
tow hook will reduce the loading
capacity of the vehicle by the same
amount.
To make sure that the maximum
towable weight is not exceeded (given
in the vehicle registration document)
account should be taken of the fully
laden trailer, including accessories and
luggage.
Do not exceed the speed limits specific
to each country you are driving in, in
the case of vehicles towing trailers.
In any case, the top speed must not
exceed 80 km/h.
116) 117)
WARNING
116)The ABS device with which the
vehicle is equipped will not control the
braking system of the trailer. Particular
caution is required on slippery roads.
117)Never modify the braking system of
the vehicle to control the trailer brake. The
trailer braking system must be fully
independent from the hydraulic system of
the vehicle.

CHANGING A WHEEL
The vehicle is originally equipped with
the Fix&Go automatic quick tyre repair
kit (see instructions in the next section).
As an alternative, the vehicle may
have a normal-sized spare wheel.
Wheel changing and correct use of the
jack and spare wheel call for some
precautions, as listed below.
125) 126) 127) 128)
Note for one-way tyres
One-way tyres have a few arrows on
the side indicating the rotation direction.
If a wheel is changed (when punctured,
for example) the direction of the arrows
on the spare wheel tyre may not
coincide with the rotation direction of
the wheel to be replaced.
In these conditions, too, the tyre still
maintains its safety features.
Anyway, it is recommended to have the
wheel repaired and refitted as soon as
possible, as the best performance is
achieved when the rotation direction of
all tyres coincides with the one
indicated by the arrows.
Please note that:
the jack weight is 4 kg;
the jack requires no adjustment;
the jack cannot be repaired and in
the event of a fault it must be replaced
by another original one;
no tool other than its cranking
device may be fitted on the jack.
To change a wheel, proceed as follows:
stop the vehicle in a position that is
not dangerous for oncoming traffic
where you can change the wheel safely.
The ground should be flat if possible,
and sufficiently firm;
stop the engine and pull the
handbrake;
engage first gear or reverse;
wear the reflective safety jacket
(compulsory by law in certain countries)
before getting out of the vehicle;
indicate that the vehicle has broken
down using the devices required by
the law in the current country (e.g.
warning triangle, hazard lights, etc.);
for Cargo versions fig. 182: move
the left front seat forward and operate
lever A to access the tool bag; take it to
the wheel that needs replacing;
for Doblò/Doblò Combi versions fig.
183: open the rear doors, inside the
compartment on the rear right side,
take the tool bag, unhooking the elastic
band from the buckle, and take it next
to the wheel to be changed;
take wheel spanner B fig. 184 and
the extension with pentagonal fitting C;
inside the load area, fit extension C
on bolt A; use spanner B to lower the
wheel by unwinding the wire;
use the wheel dismantling spanner B
to remove the wheel from the vehicle
fig. 185;
unscrew knob D fig. 186 and release
the rim from bracket E, removing it
from the hole of the rim;

TYRE REPAIRING AND
PRESSURE RESTORING
PROCEDURE
28)
129) 130)Proceed as follows:
place the vehicle in a safe and
suitable area, engaging the parking
brake. Take the kit from the specific
compartment. Remove the adhesive
speed label C fig. 198 and apply it in a
visible position. Wear the protective
gloves provided. Remove the cap from
the valve of the punctured tyre and
connect and firmly tighten the
transparent sealing fluid tube A fig. 200;
ensure that the on-off button E fig.
201 is in the0(OFF) position. If
provided, open the cover of the
compressor D fig. 198 and insert the
electrical connector in the vehicle’s 12V
socket fig. 202 and switch on the
vehicle’s engine;
activate the compressor moving
on-off button E to theI(ON) fig. 201
position. When the pressure gauge
F shows the vehicle required pressure
(see section “Wheels” under “Technical
data” chapter), switch off the
compressor moving on-off button E to
the0position. If after 5 minutes from
the compressor ignition, the pressure
gauge F indicates a pressure less than
1.8 bar / 26 psi, switch off the
compressor, disconnect the sealing
fluid tube from the tyre valve, re-screw
the valve cap and move the vehicle
about 10 meters to allow the
distribution of sealing fluid in the tyre.
Securely stop the vehicle and repeat
the operation above until reaching the
required pressure. If after other 5 min.
from the compressor ignition, the
pressure gauge F still indicates a
pressure lower than 1.8 bar / 26 psi,
the TYRE IS TOO DAMAGED AND
CANNOT BE REPAIRED. Remove and
place the kit in the specific
compartment and contact a Fiat
Dealership;

if the required pressure is reached,
restart driving. Do not exceed 80 km/h.
Avoid sudden acceleration or braking.
After driving for about 8 km / 5 miles,
place the vehicle in a safe and suitable
area, engaging the parking brake.
Take the kit, make sure that the on-off
switch E is in the0position and insert
the electrical connector in the vehicle’s
12V socket. Remove the cap from
the valve of repaired tyre, disconnect
and pull out the black inflation tube fig.
203, connect it to the valve and lock
it with the lever. Inspect the pressure
gauge F to check the tyre pressure fig.
201;
if the pressure is lower than 1.8 bar /
26 psi, the TYRE IS TOO DAMAGED
AND CANNOT BE REPAIRED. Remove
and place the kit in the specific
compartment and contact a Fiat
Dealership;
if the pressure is equal to or higher
than 1.8 bar / 26 psi, switch on the
compressor and reach the required
pressure. Disconnect and replace the
kit in the specific compartment.
Carefully drive and reach the Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible;PRESSURE RESTORING
The compressor can also be used to
check and, if necessary, restore the tyre
pressure.
Disconnect and pull out the black
inflation tube, connect and block it with
the stalk to the tyre valve fig. 203.
With the same procedure it is possible
to inflate bicycle tyres and balloons.CARTRIDGE

IMPORTANT Remember that the brake
booster and the electric power steering
system are not active until the engine
is started, so you will need to apply
much more force to the brake pedal or
steering wheel.
WARNING
29)Never use a fast battery-charger for
emergency starting of the engine as this
could damage the electronic systems
of your vehicle, particularly the ignition and
fuel supply control units.
WARNING
131)This procedure must be performed by
qualified personnel as incorrect actions
may cause high-intensity electrical
discharge. Furthermore, battery fluid is
poisonous and corrosive: avoid contact
with skin and eyes. Keep naked flames
away from the battery. No smoking. Do not
cause sparks.
FUEL CUT-OFF
SYSTEM
This intervenes in the case of an impact
causing:
the fuel supply cut-off with the
engine consequently switching off;
the automatic unlocking of the
doors;
the switching on of the interior lights;
switching on of the hazard warning
lights (to deactivate the lights press
the dedicated button on the
dashboard).
132)When the system has been triggered,
the message “Fuel cut off, see
handbook” is displayed on some
versions.
Check carefully for fuel leaks, for
instance in the engine compartment,
under the vehicle or near the tank area.
After a collision, turn the ignition key
to STOP to prevent the battery from
running down.
The following procedure should be
carried out to restore the correct
operation of the vehicle:
turn the ignition key to the MAR
position;
activate the right direction indicator;
deactivate the right direction
indicator;
activate the left direction indicator;
deactivate the left direction indicator;
activate the right direction indicator;
deactivate the right direction
indicator;
activate the left direction indicator;
deactivate the left direction indicator;
turn the ignition key to the OFF
position.
WARNING
132)If, after an impact, you smell fuel or
notice leaks from the fuel supply system,
do not reactivate the system to avoid
the risk of fire.

135)When towing, remember that greater
effort is required on the brake pedal in
order to brake, since the brake servo is not
providing assistance. Do not use flexible
cables when towing and avoid jerky
movements. During towing operations,
make sure that the fastened joint does not
damage adjoining components. When
towing the vehicle, comply with the specific
rules of the highway code regarding the
towing device and road conduct. Do
not start the engine whilst the vehicle is
being towed.
WARNING
30)The front and rear tow hooks should
be used only for emergencies on the road.
You are allowed to tow the vehicle for
short distances using an appropriate
device in accordance with the highway
code (a rigid bar), to move the vehicle on
the road in readiness for towing or
transport via a breakdown vehicle. Tow
hooks MUST NOT be used to tow vehicles
off the road or where there are obstacles
and/or for towing operations using ropes
or other non-rigid devices. Respecting the
above conditions, towing must take place
with two vehicles (one towing, the other
towed) aligned as much as possible along
the same centre line.
