REPLACEMENT OF
LAMP BULBS
299) 300) 301) 302) 303) 304)
Before replacing a bulb, ensure the
lamp is off. Do not touch the glass part
of the new bulb with your bare fingers;
the skin oil left on the glass will
evaporate when the bulb gets hot and
the vapor will condense on the reflector
and dim the surface.
NOTE If you are unsure of how to carry
out the work as required, we
recommend you to consult a specialist.
Be careful not to scratch the vehicle
body when removing a lamp and lens.
When it rains, or when the vehicle has
been washed, the inside of the lens
sometimes becomes foggy. This is the
same phenomenon as when window
glass mists up on a humid day, and
does not indicate a functional problem.When the lamp is switched on, the heat
will remove the fog. However, if water
gathers inside the lamp, we
recommend you to have the lamp
checked.
Bulb location and capacity
When replacing a bulb, use a new bulb
with the same wattage and colour.
Outside
Front
Except for vehicles with high
intensity discharge headlamps
1. Position lamps: 5 W (W5W)
2. Front turn-signal lamps: 21 W
(PY21W/P21W)
3. Headlamps, high/low beam:
60/55 W (H4)
4. Type 1: Front fog lamps: 35 W (H8)
Daytime running lamps: 13 W (P13W).

Glove box lamp
Have the glove box lamp bulb replaced
at a Fiat dealership.
WARNING
299)Bulbs are extremely hot immediately
after being turned off. When replacing a
bulb, wait for it to cool sufficiently before
touching it. You could otherwise be burnt.
300)Handle halogen lamp bulb with care.
The gas inside halogen lamp bulb is highly
pressurized, so dropping, knocking, or
scratching a halogen lamp bulb can cause
it to shatter.
301)Never hold the halogen lamp bulb
with a bare hand, dirty glove, etc. The oil
from your hand could cause the bulb to
break the next time the headlamps are
operated. If the glass surface is dirty, it
must be cleaned with alcohol, paint thinner,
etc., and refit it after drying it thoroughly.302)Always consult a specialist when
repairing or replacing the bulbs of high
intensity discharge headlamps. This is
because the power circuit, bulbs and
electrodes generate a high voltage that
could cause an electric shock.
303)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.
304)Only replace bulbs when the engine is
off. Also ensure that the engine is cold, to
prevent the risk of burns.
