WHEN NEEDING TO
CHANGE A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
❒ When a light is not working, check that
the corresponding fuse is intact before
changing a bulb. For the location of fus-
es, refer to the paragraph “If a fuse
blows” in this section;
❒ Before changing a bulb check the con-
tacts for oxidation;
❒ Burnt bulbs must be replaced by oth-
ers of the same type and power;
❒ Always check the height of the head-
light beam after changing a bulb.Halogen bulbs must be han-
dled touching only the metal-
lic part. If the transparent bulb
is touched with the fingers, its
lighting intensity is reduced and life of
the bulb may be compromised. If
touched accidentally, rub the bulb with
a cloth moistened with alcohol and al-
low to dry.
Modifications or repairs to
the electrical system (elec-
tronic control units) carried out in-
correctly and without bearing the fea-
tures of the system in mind can cause
malfunctions with the risk of fire.
WARNING
Due to high voltage, the bulb
of (Bi-Xenon) gas-discharge
headlights must only be replaced by
experts: danger of death! Contact Fi-
at Dealership.
WARNING
IMPORTANT The headlight inner surface
may be lightly misted over: this is not a
fault but a natural fact due to low tem-
perature and the level of air humidity. It
will disappear as soon the headlights are
turned on. The presence of drops inside
the headlights means water infiltration,
therefore contact Fiat Dealership.
Halogen bulbs contain pres-
surised gas which, if broken,
may cause small fragments of glass to
be projected outwards.
WARNING

Before replacing a fuse, make
sure the ignition key has been
removed and that all the oth-
er services are switched off
and/or disengaged.

If a general fuse (MEGA-
FUSE, MIDI-FUSE, MAXI-
FUSE) cuts in, do not attempt any re-
pair and contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
If a fuse blows again, contact
a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
IF A FUSE BLOWS
GENERAL
The fuse is a protective device for the
electric system: it comes into action (i.e.
it cuts off) mainly due to a fault or im-
proper action on the system.
When a device does not work, check the
efficiency of its fuse: the conductor ele-
ment A-fig. 47must be intact. If not, re-
place the fuse with one of the same amp
rating (same colour).
B: undamaged fuse
C: fuse with damaged filament.
To replace a fuse, use the pliers Dhooked
to the fusebox on the dashboard.Never replace a fuse with
metal wires or anything else.
fig. 47F0Q0220m
Never replace a fuse with
another with a higher amp
rating, DANGER OF FIRE.
