CHANGING A BULB
15)
106) 107) 108)
GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS
❒Before changing a bulb check the
contacts for oxidation;
❒replace blown bulbs with others of
the same type and power;
❒after replacing a headlight bulb,
always check its alignment;
❒when a light is not working, check
that the corresponding fuse is intact
before changing the bulb. For the
location of fuses, refer to the
paragraph “If a fuse blows” in this
chapter.IMPORTANT
15) Halogen bulbs must be handled
by 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 the case
of accidental contact, rub the
lamp with a cloth and spirit and
leave to dry.
WARNING
106) Modifications or repairs to the
electric system that are not
carried out properly or do not take
the system technical
specifications into account can
cause malfunctions leading to the
risk of fire.
107) Halogen bulbs contain
pressurised gas; in the case of
breakage they may burst.108) Due to the high supply voltage,
gas discharge bulbs (Bi-Xenon)
should only be replaced by
specialised personnel: danger of
death! Contact a dedicated Alfa
Romeo 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.

IN AN EMERGENCY

REPLACING FUSES
GENERAL INFORMATION
Fuses protect the electrical system:
they intervene (blow) in the event of a
fault or improper action on the system.
When a device does not work, check
the condition of its fuse: the filament
A fig. 110 must be intact.
If it is not, replace the blown fuse with
another with the same amperage (same
colour).
110) 111) 112) 113) 114)16)
B = intact fuse;
C = fuse with damaged filament.FUSE LOCATION
The fuses are grouped in two fuse
boxes located in the engine and
passenger compartments.
Engine compartment fuse box
This is located next to the battery fig.
111: to access the fuses, undo screws
A and remove cover B.
The number identifying the electrical
component corresponding to each fuse
is shown on the back of the cover.
After replacing the fuse, make sure you
close cover B on the fuse box.
17)
Dashboard fuse box
This is located under the dashboard in
the area in front of the passenger seat.
To access the fuse box fig. 114 remove
the protective panel, following the
procedure described below:
❒undo the four screws A fig. 113;
❒to locate the fifth locking screw,
remove block B and remove plastic
cover C;
110A0L0102
111A0L0137112A0L0104
133

❒at this point undo the fifth screw D
and remove the protective panel to
locate the fuse box.
WARNING
110) If a fuse blows again, contact a
dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership.
111) Never replace a fuse with
another with a higher amp rating;
DANGER OF FIRE.112) If a general protective fuse
(MAXI-FUSE, MEGA-FUSE,
MIDI-FUSE) blows, contact a
dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership.
113) Before replacing a fuse, make
sure that the ignition key has
been removed and that all the
other services are switched off
and/or deactivated.
114) Contact a dedicated Alfa
Romeo Dealership if a safety
system (airbags, brakes),
transmission system (engine,
gearbox) or steering system
general protection fuse blows.
IMPORTANT
16) Never replace a blown fuse with
metal wires or other material.
17) If you need to wash the engine
compartment, take care not to
aim the jet of water directly at the
fuse box.

If the fluid level in the reservoir is not
sufficient, proceed as follows:
❒take the black funnel for topping up
the brake fluid and its extension
pipe from the service kit in the
luggage compartment;
❒loosen the reservoir plug and
introduce the funnel F fig. 126 with
the extension pipe in the reservoir
inlet;
❒after topping up, remove the funnel F
with the extension pipe;
❒tighten the reservoir plug;
❒reposition the protection panel and
tighten the 2 self-tapping screws E.
WARNING Be very careful while
removing the plug from the opening to
prevent the plug from falling inside
the vehicle body.
IMPORTANT
21) Be careful not to confuse the
various types of fluids while
topping up: they are not
compatible with each other!
Topping up with an unsuitable
fluid could severely damage your
vehicle.
22) The oil level should never exceed
the MAX mark.
23) Do not add oil with specifications
other than those of the oil already
in the engine.24) PARAFLU
UPanti-freeze fluid is
used in the engine cooling
system; use the same fluid type as
that already in the cooling system
when topping up. PARAFLU
UP
may not be mixed with other types
of anti-freeze fluids. If topping up
with an unsuitable product, under
no circumstances start the engine
and contact a dedicated Alfa
Romeo Dealership.
25) Avoid allowing brake fluid, which
is extremely corrosive, to come
into contact with painted areas.
Should it happen, immediately
wash with water.
26) Be very careful while topping up
the brake fluid, as it could drip
from the extension pipe inside the
vehicle under the engine cover
and on parts of the body and
windscreen, corroding and
damaging them. Adopt suitable
protection (e.g absorbing paper)
to reduce this risk as much as
possible.
