2012 FIAT BRAVO technical specifications

Halogen bulbs must be handled holding
the metallic part only.Touching the
transparent part of the bulb with your
fingers may reduce the intensity of the emitted
light and even reduce the lifespan of the bulb. In
case of accidental contact , wipe the bulb with
a cloth moistened with alcohol and let the bulb
dry.If possible, we recommend have bulbs
replaced by a Fiat Dealership.The
correct operation and aiming of the
outer lights are absolutely essential for the
safety of the car and of compliance with law.Due to the high supply voltage, gas
discharge bulbs (Bi-Xenon) (for
versions/markets, where provided) must
only be replaced by a specialist technician:
danger of death! Contact a Fiat Dealership.IMPORTANT When the weather is cold or damp
or after heavy rain or washing, the surface of
headlights or rear lights, may steam up and/or form
drops of condensation on the inside. This is a
natural phenomenon due to the difference in
temperature and humidity between the inside and
the outside of the glass which does not indicate
a fault and does not compromise the normal
operation of lighting devices. The mist disappears
quickly when the lights are turned on, starting from
the centre of the diffuser, extending progressively
towards the edges.
