to the electrical system
that are not carried out
correctly or do not take the
system’s technical
specifications into account can

pressurised gas. Glass
shards may be projected if a
bulb breaks.

moistened with alcohol and let
the bulb dry.
Where possible, it is
advisable to have bulbs
changed at a Fiat
Dealership. The correct
operation and direction of the
exterior lights are absolutely
essential for the driving in safety
and compliance with law.
