warning FIAT DOBLO COMBI 2018 Owner handbook (in English)

WARNING
INTERIOR FITTINGS
Never travel with the glove compartment open: it could injure the passenger in the event of a crash.
The cigar lighter becomes very hot. Handle it carefully and make sure that children don't touch it: risk of fire and/or burning.
Do not use the ashtray as a waste paper basket: it may catch fire in contact with cigarette stubs.
ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
Fully comply with the regulations in force concerning maximum clearance.
After travelling for a few kilometres, check to ensure that the fixing screws for the attachments are well tightened.
Distribute the load evenly and pay attention to side winds when driving.
Never exceed the maximum permitted loads, see chapter "Technical specifications"
SNOW TYRES
The max. speed for snow tyres with “Q” marking is 160 km/h. The Road Traffic Code speed limits must however be always strictly
observed.
BATTERY
Battery fluid is poisonous and corrosive. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep naked flames and sources of sparks away from the
battery: risk of explosion and fire.
Using the battery with insufficient battery fluid may irreparably damage the battery and may cause an explosion.
When performing any operation on the battery or near it, always protect your eyes with special goggles.
INTERIOR
Never use flammable products, such as petroleum ether or modified petrol, to clean the inside of the vehicle. The electrostatic charges
which are generated by rubbing during the cleaning operation may cause a fire.
Do not keep aerosol cans in the vehicle: they might explode. Aerosol cans must not be exposed to temperatures of more than 50°C.
When the vehicle is exposed to sunlight, the temperature inside can greatly exceed this value.
249

Some automatic systems equipped with old generation blades and/or with a poor maintenance can damage the paint, promoting the
creation of microscoring which give an opaque/coated appearance to the paint, especially on dark colours. In this case, just lightly polish with
specific products.
RADIO
To connect to the existing wiring in the vehicle, contact a Fiat Dealership to prevent any problems that could impair vehicle safety.
EOBD SYSTEM
If, when the ignition key is turned to MAR, thewarning light does not switch on, switches on constantly or flashes when driving (on
certain versions together with the message on the display), contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible. The operation of thewarning
light may be checked by the traffic police using specific devices. Comply with the laws and regulations of the country where you are driving.
SNOW CHAINS
Keep the vehicle's speed down when snow chains are fitted; never exceed 50 km/h. Avoid potholes, do not drive over steps or
pavements, and do not drive long distances over roads without snow, to avoid damaging both your vehicle and the road surface.
DIESEL FILTER
The presence of water in the supply circuit may cause severe damage to the injection system and irregular engine operation. If thewarning light comes on, go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to have the system bled. If the above indication occurs immediately
after refuelling, water may have entered the tank: turn the engine off immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
BATTERY
Incorrect installation of electric and electronic devices may cause severe damage to your vehicle. After purchasing your vehicle, if you wish
to install any accessories (anti-theft, radio phone, etc.), go to a Fiat Dealership, which will suggest the most suitable devices and advise you
whether a higher capacity battery needs to be installed.
If the vehicle will be unused for an extended period of time in extremely cold weather conditions, remove the battery and store it in a
heated area to prevent it from freezing.
