WHEN NEEDING TO
CHANGE A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
❒ When a light is not working, check that
the corresponding fuse is intact before
changing a bulb. For the location of fus-
es, refer to the paragraph “If a fuse
blows” in this section;
❒ Before changing a bulb check the con-
tacts for oxidation;
❒ Burnt bulbs must be replaced by oth-
ers of the same type and power;
❒ Always check the height of the head-
light beam after changing a bulb.
IMPORTANT The headlight inner surface
may be lightly misted over: this is not a
fault but a natural fact due to low tem-
perature and the level of air humidity. It
will disappear as soon the headlights are
turned on. The presence of drops inside
the headlights means water infiltration,
therefore contact Abarth Dealership.
TYPES OF BULBS
Various types of bulbs are fitted to your
car:
AGlass bulbs: clipped into position. Pull
to remove.BBayonet type bulbs: to remove this
type of bulb from its holder, press
the bulb and turn it counter-clock-
wise.
CTubular bulbs: release them from
their contacts to remove.
D-EHalogen bulbs: to remove the bulb,
release the clip holding the bulb in
place. Halogen bulbs must be han-
dled touching only the metal-
lic part. If the transparent bulb
is touched with the fingers, its
lighting intensity is reduced and life of
the bulb may be compromised. If
touched accidentally, rub the bulb with
a cloth moistened with alcohol and al-
low to dry.
Modifications or repairs to
the electrical system (elec-
tronic control units) carried out in-
correctly and without bearing the fea-
tures of the system in mind can cause
malfunctions with the risk of fire.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs contain pres-
surised gas which, if broken,
may cause small fragments of glass to
be projected outwards.
