REPLACING A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
❍Before changing a bulb, check the contacts for oxida-
tion;
❍ burnt-out bulbs must be replaced by others of the same
type and power;
❍ always check the direction of the beam after chang-
ing a headlight bulb, for safety reasons;
❍ when a light is not working, check that the corre-
sponding fuse is intact before changing the bulb. For
the location of fuses, refer to the “Replacing fuses”
paragraph in this chapter.
IMPORTANT The headlight inner surface might be slight-
ly misted: this does not indicate a fault, it is a natural phe-
nomenon due to low temperature and the air humidity lev-
el. Misting will disappear rapidly when the headlights are
turned on. The presence of drops inside the headlights in-
dicates infiltration of water. Contact a Lancia Dealership.
Modifications or repairs to the electric sys-
tem 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.
Halogen bulbs contain gas under pressure, if
they break glass fragments may be thrown
around.
When handling halogen bulbs just touch the
metal part. If the transparent bulb is touched
with the fingers, its lighting intensity is re-
duced and life of the bulb may be compromised. In
the event of accidental contact, wipe the bulb with
a cloth moistened with alcohol and leave it to dry.
Where possible, it is advisable to have bulbs
changed at a Lancia Dealership. Proper op-
eration and direction of the external lights
are essential for driving in safety and comply with
law.

❍wash the bodywork using a low pressure jet of water;
❍ wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy solution over the
bodywork, frequently rinsing the sponge;
❍ rinse well with water and dry with a jet of air or a
chamois leather.
Dry the less visible parts with special care, such as the door
frames, bonnet and the headlight frames, where water may
stagnate more easily. The car should not be taken to a
closed area immediately, but left outside so that residual
water can evaporate.
Do not wash the car after it has been left in the sun or with
the bonnet hot: this may alter the shine of the paintwork.
Exterior plastic parts must be cleaned in the same way
as the rest of the car.
Where possible, do not park under trees; the resinous sub-
stance that many species release give the paint a dull ap-
pearance and increase the possibility of triggering rust-
ing processes.
ADVICE FOR PRESERVING THE BODYWORK
Paintwork
Paintwork does not only serve an aesthetic purpose, but
also protects the underlying sheet metal.
Touch up abrasions and scratches immediately to prevent
rust formation. Use only original paint products for touch-
ups (see “Bodywork paint identification plate” in the
“Technical specifications” chapter).
Normal maintenance of paintwork consists in washing the
car: the frequency depends on the conditions and envi-
ronment where the car is used. For example, in highly pol-
luted areas, or if the roads are spread with salt, it is ad-
visable to wash the car more frequently.
To correctly wash the car, proceed as follows:
❍
if taking your car through an automatic car wash, re-
move the aerial from the roof to avoid damaging it;
❍ in washing stations keep the steam jets/high pressure
washing nozzles at least 40 cm away from the body-
work to prevent damage. It should be remembered that
the build up of water can damage the car over a peri-
od of time;
