WHEN NEEDING
TO CHANGE A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
❒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 headlight aiming after
changing a bulb to ensure they are safe;
❒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 paragraph “If a fuse blows”
in this section.
Alterations or repairs to the
electric system not carried
out correctly and without taking into
account the system specifications
may cause failures and the risk of fire.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs contain pres-
surised gas, in the case of
breakage they may burst.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs must be han-
dled touching only the metal-
lic part. If the transparent
bulb is touched with the fin-
gers, its lighting intensity is reduced and
life of the bulb may be compromised.
If touched accidentally, rub the bulb
with a cloth moistened with methylat-
ed spirit and allow to dry.

F0G0118mfig. 20
Where possible, it is advisable
to have bulbs changed c/o Fi-
at Dealership. The correct
operation and aiming of the
outer lights are vital to the safety of the
car and its passengers and the subject
of specific laws.
IMPORTANT The headlight inner surface
might be slightly misted: this should not be
considered irregular but a natural phe-
nomenon due to low temperature and the
air humidity level. Misting will disappear as
soon as the headlights are turned on.
Drops inside the headlight mean water in-
filtration: contact Fiat Dealership.
