Get STARTING AND DRIVING -> START&STOP SYSTEM Guide for Fiat Doblo Van 2010-2022

NOTE: The engine can only be stopped

automatically after a speed of about

10 km/h is reached, to prevent the

engine from being repeatedly stopped

when driving at walking pace.

MANUAL ACTIVATION

AND DEACTIVATION

START&STOP

SYSTEM

The device can be activated/

deactivated via button A fig. 143

located to the side of the handbrake.

The deactivation is signalled when

the LED on the button switches on. In

addition, on the versions where

provided, additional information

concerning the deactivation or

activation of the Start&Stop is given

through a message in the display.

IN BRIEF

The engine being stopped is signalled

by the fig. 142 icon on the display,

depending on the trim level.

The Start&Stop device automatically

stops the engine each time the

vehicle is stationary and starts it

again when the driver wants to move

off.

This improves the efficiency of the

vehicle by reducing fuel consumption,

the emission of harmful gases and

noise pollution.

OPERATING MODE

Engine restarting mode

WITH MANUAL GEARBOX

With the vehicle stationary, the engine

stops with the gearbox in neutral and

the clutch pedal released.

143

Depress the clutch pedal to restart the

engine.

WITH ROBOTIZED GEARBOX

The engine cuts out if the vehicle stops

with the brake pedal pressed.

If the gear lever is in position N, place it

in any other gear, otherwise release

the brake pedal or move the gear lever

to (+), (–) or R.

This condition can be maintained even

if the brake pedal is not depressed, if

the gear lever is in position N.

FAILURE CONDITIONS

RESTARTING

CONDITIONS

N.B.: If you stall the engine, for example

by releasing off the clutch pedal quickly

when in gear, if the Start&Stop system

is activated, the engine can be

restarted by fully depressing the clutch

pedal or by putting the gear lever into

neutral.

With the device activated, for reasons

of comfort, limiting emissions and

safety, the engine does not stop in

certain conditions, including:

For reasons of comfort, limiting harmful

emissions and safety purposes, the

power unit can restart automatically

without any action by the driver if

certain conditions are met, including:

engine still cold;

N.B.: If the clutch is not depressed

when the three minutes have elapsed

since the engine was stopped, the

engine can only be restarted using the

key.

particularly cold external

temperatures, if the corresponding

indication is provided;

reduced braking system vacuum

(e.g. if the brake pedal is pressed

repeatedly);

battery not sufficiently charged;

vehicle in motion (e.g. when driving

on roads with a gradient);

particulate filter regeneration in

progress (diesel engines only);

SAFETY FUNCTIONS

In engine cut-out conditions through

the Start&Stop system, if the driver

unfastens his/her seat belt and opens

the driver's door or the passenger door,

the engine can be restarted only by

using the key.

The driver is notified of this condition by

a buzzer, through the fig. 142 warning

light flashing in the instrument panel

and, where provided, by a message in

the display.

With a gear engaged, the engine can

"ENERGY SAVING"

FUNCTION

(for versions/markets, where provided)

If, after the engine has been

automatically restarted, the driver does

not take any action for a period of

about 3 minutes, the Start&Stop

system will definitively stop the engine

to avoid fuel consumption.

The engine can only be started using

the key in such cases. N.B.: In any

case, it is possible to keep the engine

running by deactivating the Start&Stop

system.

VEHICLE INACTIVITY

Proceed as follows: detach the

connector A (by pressing button B)

from sensor C for monitoring the status

of the battery installed on the negative

battery pole D. This sensor should

never be disconnected from the pole

except if the battery is replaced.

Versions with dummy pole fig. 145

If the vehicle is inactive, special care

must be taken to disconnect the

battery electrical power supply. This

procedure must be carried out by

disconnecting the rapid-release

negative terminal A from the negative

dummy pole B because there is a

battery status monitoring sensor D on

the negative battery terminal C which

must never be disconnected, except if

the battery is replaced.

IRREGULAR OPERATION

In the case of malfunctions the

Start&Stop system is disabled.

The driver is informed of the problem by

the general failure warning light A fig.

144, where provided, coming on with

an information message and the

system failure symbol B fig. 144 in the

control panel. In this case, contact a

Fiat Dealership.

evacuated after the key has been removed

or turned to the OFF position. When

refuelling, make sure that the vehicle is

switched off with the key in the OFF

position.

EMERGENCY STARTING

TPMS (Tyre

Pressure

Monitoring System)

(for versions/markets, where provided)

In the case of emergency starting,

never connect the negative lead (–) of

the auxiliary battery to the negative pole

C of the vehicle battery, but rather to

either the dummy pole B or to an

engine/gearbox earth point fig. 147.

101) For vehicles with robotised gearbox,

in the event of automatic engine stopping

with the vehicle on a slope, the engine

should be restarted by moving the gear

lever towards (+) or (–) without releasing

the brake pedal. For vehicles with

robotised gearbox and Hill Holder function,

in the event of automatic engine stopping

with the vehicle on a slope, the engine

must be restarted by moving the gear lever

towards (+) or (–) without releasing the

DESCRIPTION

The tyre pressure monitoring system

(TPMS) warns the driver of low tyre

pressure on the basis of the cold

inflation pressure prescribed for the

vehicle.

Changes in outside temperature may

cause tyre pressure to vary. This means

that a decrease in the outside

temperature corresponds to a decrease

in the tyre pressure.

function, active only with the engine

running, becomes available.

102) If climate comfort is to be favoured,

the Start&Stop system can be disabled, for

a continuous operation of the climate

control system.

Tyre pressure must always be adjusted

according to the cold inflation pressure.

Cold tyre inflation pressure is the tyre

pressure after letting the vehicle stand

for at least three hours or a travel

shorter than 1.6 km after an interval of

three hours.

WARNING

98) If the battery needs to be replaced,

always contact a Fiat Dealership. Replace

the battery with a new one of the same

type and specifications.

The cold tyre inflation pressure must

not exceed the maximum inflation

pressure value printed on the side of

the tyre.

99) Before opening the bonnet, make sure

that the vehicle is switched off and the

key is in the OFF position. Please follow the

instructions on the decal near the front

crossmember. It is advisable to extract the

key when there are other people in the

vehicle.

The tyre pressure also increases while

driving the vehicle: this is a normal

condition and does not require any

adjustment of the pressure.
