Roof Rack/Ski Rack; To Close The Bonnet; Presetting - Fiat Doblo Owner's Handbook Manual

To close the bonnet

1) Hold the bonnet up with one hand
and, with the other, remove rod A-
fig. 135 from recess B and replace it
in its clip.
2) Lower the bonnet until it is about
20 cm above the engine compartment,
and then let it drop, ensuring that it
is fully closed and not just held in po-
sition by the safety catch.
If the bonnet does not close properly
do not push it down but open it again
and repeat the above procedure.
For safety reasons the
bonnet must be closed
properly to avoid its
opening while the vehicle is trav-
elling. Therefore, always check it
is properly closed and the catch
engaged. Should you notice that
the catch is not perfectly engaged
when travelling, stop the vehicle
immediately and close the bon-
net.
