WHEN NEEDING TO
CHANGE A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
When a bulb is not working, check that
the corresponding fuse is intact before
replacing it: refer to the “If a fuse
blows” paragraph in this chapter for
fuse location.
before changing a bulb check the con-
tacts for oxidation;
burnt bulbs must be replaced by others
of the same type and power;
always check the height of the headlight
beam after changing a bulb, for reasons
of safety.
IMPORTANT A
slight misting may appear
on the internal surface of the headlight:
this does not indicate a fault and is caused
by low temperature and the degree of hu-
midity in the air. Misting will rapidly dis-
appear when the headlights are switched
on.
The presence of drop inside the head-
lights indicates infiltration of water. Go to
a Fiat Dealership.
TYPES OF BULBS
Various types of bulbs are fitted
to your car:AAll glass bulb: clipped into place. Pull
to extract.
BBayonet bulbs:
to remove this type
of bulb from its holder, press the
bulb and turn it anticlockwise.
CCylindrical bulbs:
release from the
contacts to extract.
D-EHalogen bulbs: release the fastening
clip from the corresponding seat to
remove the lamp. Halogen lamps must be han-
dled
holding the metallic part
only. Touching the transparent
part of the
bulb with your fin-
gers may reduce the intensity of the
emitted light and even
compromise du-
ration of the lamp itself. In the case of
accidental contact, rub the lamp with a
cloth and spirit and leave to dry.
Modifications or repairs to
the electrical system (elec-
tronic control units) that are not car-
ried out properly or do not take the
technical specifications of the system
into account can cause malfunctions
leading to the risk of fire.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs contain pres-
surised gas which, if broken,
may cause small fragments of glass to
be projected outwards.
