Halogen bulbs must be
handled touching only
the metallic part. If the
transparent bulb is touched with
the fingers its lighting intensity
is reduced and the life of the bulb
may be compromised. If touched
accidentally, rub the bulb with a
cloth moistened with methylated
spirits and allow to dry.
Where possible the
bulbs should be re-
placed by Alfa Romeo
Authorized Services. The correct
operation and positioning of the
external lights are vital to the
safety of the vehicle and its pas-
sengers and the subject of specif-
ic laws.
Halogen bulbs contain
pressurised gas, in the
case of breakage they may burst.
