2015 Alfa Romeo 4C light

WARNING
101) The space-saver wheel (for
versions/markets, where
provided) is specific to your car,
do not use it on other models,
or use the space-saver wheel of
other models on your car. The
space-saver wheel must only be
used in the event of emergency. It
must only be used for the
distance necessary to reach a
service point and the car speed
must not exceed 80 km/h. The
space-saver wheel has an orange
label that summarises the main
cautions for use and limitations.
Never remove or cover the label.
The following information is
provided in four languages on the
label: "Important! For temporary
use only! 80 km/h max! Replace
with a standard wheel as soon as
possible. Never cover this
indication."102) Use your hazard lights, warning
triangle, etc to show that your car
is stationary. Passengers should
get out of the car and wait for the
wheel to be changed away from
the traffic. In the event of a wheel
change on a slope or on
unsurfaced roads, chock the
wheels.
103) Car handling is modified with
the space-saver wheel fitted.
Avoid violent acceleration and
braking, abrupt steering and fast
cornering. The overall duration
of the space-saver wheel is of
about 3000 km, after which the
relevant tyre must be replaced
with another one of the same
type. Never install a standard tyre
on a rim that is designed for use
with a space-saver wheel. Have
the wheel repaired and refitted as
soon as possible. Using two or
more space-saver wheels at the
same time is forbidden. Do not
grease the stud bolt threads
before you fit them, because they
could suddenly come loose.104) Use the jack only to replace
wheels on the car with which it
is supplied or on other cars of the
same model. Never use the jack
for other purposes, such as lifting
other car models. Never use it
for repair operations under the
car. Incorrectly positioning the
jack may cause the car to fall. Do
not use the jack for loads higher
than those shown on the label.
105) The space-saver wheel cannot
be fitted with snow chains.
IMPORTANT
14) Contact a dedicated Alfa Romeo
Dealership as soon as possible to
have the correct tightening of
the wheel stud bolts checked.

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.
