VERY IMPORTANT!
REFUELLING
K
Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95.
Diesel engines: refuel diesel engine vehicles with diesel fuel for motor vehicles meeting EN590 European Spec-

The use of other products or mixtures may irreparably damage the engine with invalidation of the warranty due
to the damage caused.
STARTING THE ENGINE

Make sure that the handbrake is up. Put the gearbox in neutral. Press the clutch pedal fully without pressing
the accelerator. At this point:
petrol engines: turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine starts.
diesel engines: turn the ignition key to MAR and wait for the warning lights (Y) and m to go off; turn
the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL

U ensure environmental-friendlier running.
2

If you want to add electrically powered accessories after buying the vehicle (with the risk of gradually draining
the battery) visit a Fiat Dealership. They will evaluate the overall electrical intake and check whether the elec-
tric system can support the required load.
CODE card
Keep the code card in a safe place, not in the vehicle. You should always keep the electronic card code writ-
ten on the CODE card with you.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance will preserve your vehicles performance, safety features, environmental-friendliness and

WELCOME ABOARD Fiat Dobl
Fiat Dobl is a compact vehicle with an original bodyline, designed to offer great driving comfort, ensure safe-
ty and be a real friend to the environment.
Everything, from its new engines to its safety devices, from its improved comfort for driver and passengers alike
to its practical solutions, contributes to make you appreciate your Fiat Dobls personality.
And you will realise it later when you discover that its driving style and performance goes hand in hand with
new manufacturing processes that help cut running costs.
The Fiat Dobl, for example, needs to be taken in for its first servicing after 20,000 km.

THE SIGNS TO HELP YOU DRIVE CORRECTLY
The signs you see on this page are very important. They highlight those parts of the handbook where, more than
anywhere else, you should stop for a minute and read carefully.
As you can see, each sign has a different symbol to make it immediately clear and easy to identify the subjects in
the different areas:
Personal safety. Protecting the environment. Vehicle well-being.

PROVISIONS FOR THE PROCESSING OF A VEHICLE

AT THE END OF ITS LIFE-CYCLE
For years now Fiat has been developing its global commitment towards the safeguarding and protection of the
Environment through the continuous improvement of its production processes and the making of increasingly more eco
friendly products. With a view to guaranteeing the best possible service to clients in full observance of environmental
standards and in response to the obligations imposed by European Directive 2000/53/EC on end-of-life vehicles, Fiat offers
its clients the possibility to hand in their vehicle* at the end of its life span without additional costs.
The European Directive, in fact, provides for the take-back of the vehicle without the last holder or owner of the same
incurring expenses due to the fact that the market value of the vehicle is zero or negative. In particular, in almost all of
the countries of the European Union, up until 1st January 2007, take-back of the vehicle free of charge only applies to vehi-
cles registered from 1 July 2002 on, while, from 2007 on, take-back will be carried out free of charge, independently of
the year of registration, provided that the vehicle still contains all its essential component parts (especially engine and
body) and is free from additional waste materials.
Our contracted network of authorised treatment facilities has been carefully selected in order to provide a quality ser-
vice to our customers by de-polluting and recycling End of Life Vehicles to approved environmental standards. To find
out the location of your nearest authorised treatment facility, offering free of charge take-back, simply contact one of our
dealers or refer to the Fiat web site or call the toll free number 00800 3428 0000.
* Passenger transportation vehicles to seat a max. of nine persons, having a total admissible weight of 3.5 t
