141IN AN EMERGENCY
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
When a light is not working, check
that it has not fused before changing
the bulb.
For the location of the fuses, refer to
“If a fuse blows” in this section.
Before replacing a bulb that does not
work, check that the contacts are not
oxidised.
Burnt-out bulbs must be replaced
with ones of the same type. Light from
bulbs with insufficient power is dim
while those which are too powerful
use too much electricity. Always check
the height of the headlight beam after
changing a bulb. Only touch the metal
part when handling halo-
gen bulbs. If the transpar-
ent bulb is touched it reduces the
intensity of the light emitted and
can also reduce the life of the
bulb. If you touch the bulb acci-
dentally, rub it with a cloth
moistened with alcohol and leave
it to dry.IF A BULB
BURNS OUT
Modifications or repairs to
the electrical system car-
ried out incorrectly and without
bearing the features of the system
in mind can cause malfunctions
with the risk of fire.
WARNING
You should have the bulbs
replaced at a Fiat Dealer-
ship, if possible. Correct operation
and proper beam height are essen-
tial for safe driving and compliance
with law requirements.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs contain
pressurised gas which, if
broken, may cause small fragments
of glass to be projected outwards.
WARNING
IMPORTANTOn the inside sur-
face of the headlight there could ap-
pear a slight coat of fogging; this does
not show a defect, since it is a natur-
al occurrence due to low temperature
and to the degree of humidity in the
air; it will disappear as soon as the
lights are turned on. The presence of
drops inside the headlight shows wa-
ter seepage, contact Fiat Dealership.
