IN AN EMERGENCY  
3) Press and hold down the accel-  
erator pedal. The injection system  
warning light U will come on for  
about 8 seconds, and then go out. At  
this point release the accelerator ped-  
al and get ready to count the flashes  
of the U injection warning light.  
7) Once the final figure has been en-  
tered, keep the accelerator pedal  
pressed. The U warning light will light  
up for four seconds and then go out;  
release the accelerator pedal.  
EMERGENCY  
START-UP  
If the Fiat code cannot deactivate the  
engine immobilising system, the warn-  
ing lights ¢ (Y) and U stay on and  
the engine will not start. Follow the  
emergency start-up procedure to start  
the engine.  
8) The U warning light will flash  
rapidly for about 4 seconds to indicate  
that the operation has been complet-  
ed correctly.  
4) Count the number of flashes that  
corresponds to the first figure of the  
code on the CODE card, then press  
the accelerator pedal and keep it there  
until the U warning light comes on  
for four seconds and then goes out;  
release the accelerator pedal.  
9) Start the engine by turning the ig-  
nition key from MAR to AVV.  
Read the whole procedure carefully  
before trying to carry it out. If you  
make a mistake, you must turn the ig-  
nition key back to STOP and repeat  
the whole operation from the begin-  
ning (step 1).  
If, however, the U warning light  
stays on, turn the ignition key to  
STOP and repeat the procedure  
from step 1).  
5) The U warning light will start  
flashing again: after it has flashed the  
number of times that corresponds to  
the second figure on the CODE card,  
press the accelerator pedal to the  
floor and keep it there.  
1) Read the 5-figure electronic code  
given on the CODE card.  
IMPORTANT After an emergency  
start-up, you should contact a Fiat  
Dealership otherwise you will have  
to repeat the procedure described  
each time you want to start the en-  
gine.  
2) Turn the ignition key to MAR.  
6) Do the same for the remaining fig-  
ures on the CODE card.

Do not carry out this  
procedure if you lack ex-  
perience; if it is not done  
JUMP STARTING  
correctly it can cause very in-  
tense electrical discharges. In ad-  
dition, the fluid contained in the  
battery is poisonous and corro-  
sive. Avoid contact with skin and  
eyes. You are also advised not to  
put naked flames or lighted cig-  
arettes near the battery and not  
to cause sparks.  
If the battery is flat, you can use an-  
other battery to start the engine. Its  
capacity must be the same or slightly  
greater than the flat battery.  
If the engine fails to start after a few  
attempts, do not keep turning the key  
but have the vehicle seen to at a Fiat  
Dealership.  
Proceed as follows fig. 1:  
1) Connect positive terminals (+) of  
the two batteries with a jump lead.  
2) With a second lead, connect the  
negative terminal () of the auxiliary  
E
battery and to an earthing point on  
the engine or the gearbox of the ve-  
hicle to be started.  
Under no circumstances  
should a battery charger  
be used to start the en-  
gine: it could damage the elec-  
tronic systems and in particular  
the ignition and injection control  
units.  
IMPORTANT Do not directly  
connect the two negative terminals:  
sparks could ignite the flammable gas  
from the battery. If the other battery  
is fitted in a vehicle, prevent acciden-  
tal contacts between the metal parts  
of the two vehicles.  
3) Start the engine.  
4) When the engine has been start-  
ed, remove the leads reversing the or-  
der above.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS  
Passengers on board should  
leave the vehicle, especially if it is  
heavily laden. Passengers should  
stay away from oncoming traffic  
while the wheel is being changed.  
If the wheel is being changed on  
a steep or badly surfaced road,  
place wedges or other suitable  
material under the wheels to  
stop the vehicle.  
The spare wheel is vehicle-spe-  
cific. Never use the wheel on oth-  
er models. Never fit other mod-  
el spare wheels on your vehicle.  
Catalysed vehicles must  
not be bump started  
(pushed, towed or coast-  
ed down hill) as this could cause  
fuel to flow into the catalytic ex-  
haust system and damage it be-  
yond repair.  
Wheel changing and correct use of  
the jack and spare wheel call for some  
precautions as listed below.  
Do not use the jack for  
loads over the value indi-  
cated on the plate.  
The jack should only be used to  
change a wheel on the vehicle for  
which it was designed. It should  
not be put to other uses or em-  
ployed to raise other models of  
vehicle. Under no circumstances  
should it be used when carrying  
out repairs under the vehicle.  
An incorrectly positioned jack  
may cause the vehicle to fall.  
Remember that until  
the engine has started the  
brake booster and hy-  
draulic power steering systems  
will not work and a greater effort  
will therefore be required to de-  
press the brake pedal or turn the  
steering wheel.  
IN AN EMERGENCY

1) Stop the vehicle in a position that  
is not dangerous for oncoming traffic  
where you can change the wheel safe-  
ly. The ground should be flat and ad-  
equately firm.  
come loose.  
Fasten the wheel cap correctly  
to prevent the wheel from com-  
ing free in motion.  
Never tamper with the inflation  
valve.  
Never place tools between the  
rim and tyre.  
Check the tyre and spare wheel  
pressure regularly. The tyre in-  
flation pressure is shown in sec-  
tion “Technical specifications”.  
4) Either move the left-hand front  
seat back forwards (Fiat Doblò Car-  
go versions) lifting lever A-fig. 2 and  
take the tool bag shown in fig. 3 or lift  
the rear seat (for Fiat Doblò Passen-  
ger Transport versions) with lever B-  
fig. 4 and take the bag shown in fig.  
5. Take the bag to the wheel to be re-  
placed.  
5) Take the wheel removal wrench.  
CHANGING A WHEEL  
Please note:  
– The jack weighs 1.85 kg

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS  
IF A BULB BURNS OUT  
– When a light is not working, check  
that it has not fused before changing  
the bulb.  
Modifications or repairs

gen bulbs. If the transpar-  
and without bearing the features  
of the system in mind can cause  
malfunctions with the risk of fire.  
ent bulb is touched it reduces the  
intensity of the light emitted and  
can also reduce the life of the  
bulb. If you touch the bulb acci-  
dentally, rub it with a cloth moist-  
ened with alcohol and leave it to  
dry.  
– Before replacing a bulb that does  
not work, check that the contacts are  
not oxidised.  
– Burnt-out bulbs must be replaced  
with ones of the same type.  
– Always check the height of the  
headlight beam after changing a bulb.  
IMPORTANT The headlight inner  
surface may be lightly misted over: this  
is not a fault but a natural fact due to  
low temperature and the level of air  
humidity. It will disappear as soon the  
headlights are turned on. The pres-  
ence of drops inside the headlights  
means water infiltration, therefore  
contact Fiat Dealership.  
You should have the  
bulbs replaced at a Fiat  
Dealership. Always check  
the height of the headlight beam  
after changing a bulb.  
Halogen bulbs contain  
pressurised gas which, if  
broken, may cause small  
fragments of glass to be project-  
ed outwards.

IF A FUSE BLOWS  
GENERAL  
A fuse is an element for protecting  
the electrical system. A fuse will trip  
(i.e. it will blow) in the event of a fail-  
ure or improper interventions in the  
electrical system.  
If an electrical device is not working,  
check whether the respective fuse is  
blown. The conductor A-fig. 40  
should be intact. If it is not, replace the  
fuse with another with the same am-  
perage (same colour).  
Never replace a broken  
fuse with anything other  
Before changing a fuse,  
check the ignition key has  
than a new fuse. Always  
been removed and that  
use a fuse of the same colour.  
all the other electric devices have  
been turned off/disabled.  
B - Undamaged fuse.  
C - Fuse with broken filament.  
Never change a fuse  
with another amperage:  
FIRE RISK.  
If the fuse blows again,  
have the vehicle inspect-  
ed at a Fiat Dealership.

See “Jump starting”, in this chapter.  
3) Turn on the charger.  
First of all, read the “Vehicle main-  
tenance” section for the steps to be  
taken to avoid the battery running  
down and to ensure it has a long life.  
4) When you have finished, turn the  
charger off before disconnecting the  
battery.

tery froze, make sure that the in-  
ternal elements are not broken  
(short-circuit risk) and that the  
casing is not cracked (risk of  
spilling the poisonous and corro-  
sive fluid).  
Charging should be slow at a low  
amp rating for 24 hours. Charging for  
a longer time may damage the battery.  
Proceed as follows:  
1) Disconnect the electrical system  
from the battery terminals.

battery should be done in a well-  
ventilated area away from naked  
flames or possible sources of  
sparks: explosion and fire risk.  
Under no circumstances  
should a battery charger  
be used to start the en-  
gine: it could damage the elec-  
tronic systems and in particular  
the ignition and injection control  
units.

cumstances should it be used  
when carrying out repairs under  
the vehicle.  
– The jack cannot be repaired. If it  
breaks it must be replaced with a new  
jack;  
– No other tool, part from the han-  
dle shown in this chapter, can be fit-

other vehicle.  
Do not remove the key. If the key  
is removed, the steering lock en-  
gages automatically which pre-  
vents the wheels being turned.  
– It is important to keep calm.  
– If you are not directly involved in  
the accident, stop at least ten metres  
away from the accident.  
– If you are on a motorway, do not  
obstruct the emergency lane with  
your vehicle.  
When towing the vehi-  
cle, you must comply with  
– Turn off the engine and turn on the  
hazard lights.  
the specific traffic regula-  
tions regarding the tow hitch and  
how to tow on the road.  
– At night, illuminate the scene of the  
accident with your headlights.

brake pedal and steering will re-  
quire more effort as you no  
longer have the benefit of the  
power brakes and power steer-  
ing. Do not use flexible cables to  
tow. Avoid jerking. Whilst tow-  
ing, ensure that the coupling to  
the vehicle does not damage the  
surrounding components.  
– Mark the accident by putting the  
red triangle at the regulatory distance  
from the vehicle where it can be clear-  
ly seen.  
– Call for rescue making the infor-  
mation you give as accurate as you  
can. On the motorway use the special  
column-mounted emergency phones.

IN AN EMERGENCY  
147  
– In pile-ups on the motorway, par-  
ticularly when the visibility is bad,  
there is a high risk of other vehicles  
running into those already stopped.  
Get out of the vehicle immediately and  
take refuge behind the guard rail.  
IF ANYONE IS INJURED  
FIRST-AID KIT  
– Never leave the injured person  
alone. The obligation to provide as-  
sistance exists even for those not di-  
rectly involved in the accident.  
It is a good idea to keep a fire extin-  
guisher and blanket in the vehicle in  
addition to the first-aid kit.  
The first aid kit can be arranged on  
the shelf as shown in fig. 48.  
– Do not congregate around the in-  
jured person.  
– If the doors are blocked, do not at-  
tempt to smash the windscreen to get  
out of the vehicle. It is made of layered  
glass and is very hard. Side and rear  
windows are much more easily bro-  
ken.  
– Reassure the injured person that  
help is on its way and will arrive soon.  
Stay close by to calm him/her down in  
case of panic.  
– Remove the ignition keys from the  
vehicles involved.  
– Unfasten or cut seat belts holding  
injured parties.  
– If you can smell petrol or other  
chemicals, do not smoke and make  
sure all cigarettes are extinguished.  
– Do not give an injured person any-  
thing to drink.  
– Do not move an injured person un-  
less the following situations arise.  
– Use a fire extinguisher, blanket,  
sand or earth to put out fires no mat-  
ter how small they are. Never use wa-  
ter.  
– Pull the injured person from the ve-  
hicle only if it risks catching fire, it is  
sinking in water or is likely to fall over  
a cliff or similar. Do not pull his/her  
arms or legs, do not bend the head  
and, as far as possible, keep the body  
horizontal.
