tow FIAT DOBLO PANORAMA 2016 2.G Owner's Manual

WARNING
123) Before starting towing
operations, turn the ignition key to
MAR and then to STOP, without
extracting it. If the key is
extracted, the steering lock
engages automatically and it is
consequently impossible to steer
the wheels.
124) Clean the threaded seat
carefully before fastening the ring.
Before towing the vehicle, make
sure that the tow ring is fully
tightened in its appropriate
housing. Do not start the engine
whilst the vehicle is being towed.125) 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.
IMPORTANT
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.

SCHEDULED
SERVICING
Correct servicing is essential for
ensuring long vehicle life under the best
conditions.
This is why Fiat has planned a series of
checks and services every 30,000/
35,000 km (depending on the version).
It is, however, important to remember
that scheduled servicing does not
completely cover all the vehicle's
requirements: even in the initial period
before 30,000/35,000 km, and then
subsequently between one service and
another, ordinary care is always
required such as routine checks
involving topping up fluid levels,
checking tyre pressures etc...
IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
Coupons are required by the
manufacturer. Failure to have them
carried out may invalidate the warranty.
Scheduled Servicing can be carried
out by any Fiat Dealership, at
pre-established times.
If during each operation, in addition to
the ones scheduled, the need arises for
further replacements or repairs, these
may only be carried out with the
express agreement of the Customer.IMPORTANT It is advisable to contact a
Fiat Dealership in the event of any
minor operating failure, without waiting
for the next service coupon.
If your vehicle is used frequently for
trailer towing, the interval between
scheduled maintenance services must
be reduced.
