headlight FIAT PANDA 2007 169 / 2.G User Guide

Accessories installed on
longitudinal bars
Remove accessories like: roof racks, ski
racks, luggage container, etc. from the roof
as soon as they are no longer used. These
accessories lower air penetration and ad-
versely affect consumption levels. When
needing to carry particularly voluminous
objects, preferably use a trailer.
Electric devices
Use electric devices only for the amount
of time needed. Rear heated window, ad-
ditional headlights, windscreen wipers and
heater fan need a considerable amount of
energy, therefore increasing the require-
ment of current increases fuel consump-
tion (up to +25% in the urban cycle).
Climate control
The air conditioner is an additional load
which greatly affects the engine leading to
higher consumption (on average up to
+20%). When the temperature outside
the car permits it, use the air vents where
possible.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified aerodynamic
items may adversely affect air drag and
consumption levels.DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine with the car at
a standstill or at idle or high speed: under
these conditions the engine warms up
much more slowly, increasing electrical
consumption and emissions. It is therefore
advisable to move off immediately, slow-
ly, avoiding high speeds: this way the en-
gine will warm faster.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid accelerating when waiting at traffic
lights or before switching off the engine.
This and also double declutching is ab-
solutely pointless on modern cars and al-
so increases consumption and pollution.
Gear selection
As soon as the conditions of the traffic and
road allow, use a higher gear. Using a low
gear to obtain brilliant performance in-
creases consumption.
In the same way improper use of a high
gear increases consumption, emissions an
engine wear.CONTAINING
RUNNING COSTS
Some useful tips are given below for fuel
saving and reducing harmful emissions of
CO
2and other pollutants (nitrogen ox-
ides, unburnt hydrocarbons, Particulate
Matter (PM) etc.).
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out
in accordance with the “Service schedule”.
Tyres
Check the pressure of the tyres routine-
ly at an interval of no more than 4 weeks:
if the pressure is too low, consumption
levels increase as resistance to rolling is
higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with too much luggage
stowed in the boot. The weight of the car
(especially when driving in town) and its
trim greatly affects consumption and sta-
bility.

WHEN NEEDING
TO CHANGE A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
❒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 headlight aiming after
changing a bulb to ensure they are safe;
❒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 paragraph “If a fuse blows”
in this section.
Alterations or repairs to the
electric system not carried
out correctly and without taking into
account the system specifications
may cause failures and the risk of fire.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs contain pres-
surised gas, in the case of
breakage they may burst.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs must be han-
dled touching only the metal-
lic part. If the transparent
bulb is touched with the fin-
gers, its lighting intensity is reduced and
life of the bulb may be compromised.
If touched accidentally, rub the bulb
with a cloth moistened with methylat-
ed spirit and allow to dry.

TYPES OF BULBS fig. 20
Various types of bulbs are fitted to your
car:
A All glass bulbs: these are pressed on.
Pull to remove.
B Bayonet type bulbs: press the bulb,
then counterclockwise to remove this
type of bulb from its holder.
C Tubular bulbs: free them from their
contacts to remove.
D Halogen bulbs: to remove the bulb,
release the clip holding the bulb in
place.
E Halogen bulbs: to remove the bulb,
release the clip holding the bulb in
place.
F0G0118mfig. 20
Where possible, it is advisable
to have bulbs changed c/o Fi-
at Dealership. The correct
operation and aiming of the
outer lights are vital to the safety of the
car and its passengers and the subject
of specific laws.
IMPORTANT The headlight inner surface
might be slightly misted: this should not be
considered irregular but a natural phe-
nomenon due to low temperature and the
air humidity level. Misting will disappear as
soon as the headlights are turned on.
Drops inside the headlight mean water in-
filtration: contact Fiat Dealership.

❒spraying of plastic parts, with a protec-

points: underdoor, inner fender parts,
edges, etc;
❒ Use of “open” boxed sections to pre-
vent condensation and pockets of mois-
ture from triggering rust inside.
BODY AND UNDERBODY
WARRANTY
Your Fiat Panda is covered by warranty
against perforation due to rust of any orig-
inal element of the structure or body.
For the general terms of this warranty, re-
fer to Fiat Warranty Booklet.
ADVICE FOR PRESERVING
THE BODYWORK
Paint
Paintwork does not only serve an aesteth-
ic purpose, but also protects the under-
lying sheet metal.
In the case of deep scrapes or scores, you
are advised to have the necessary touching
up carried out immediately to avoid the for-
mation of rust. For touching up use only
original products (see “Bodywork paint
identification plate” in section “Technical
specifications”).Normal paint maintenance consists in
washing at intervals depending on the con-
ditions and environment of use. For exam-
ple, in highly polluted areas, or if the roads
are sprayed with salt, it is wise to wash the
car more frequently.
To correctly wash the car:
❒ remove the aerial from the roof to pre-
vent damage to it if the car is washed in
an automatic system;
❒ wash the body using a low pressure jet
of water;
❒ wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy so-
lution over the bodywork, frequently
rinsing with the sponge;
❒ rinse well with water and dry with a jet
of air or a chamois leather.
When drying, take particular care with the
less visible parts like door surrounds, bon-
net and around the headlights where wa-
ter may stagnate. The car should not be
taken to a closed area immediately, but left
in the open 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.Windows
Use specific window cleaner products.
Use also clean cloths to avoid scratching
the glass or damaging the transparency.
IMPORTANT The inside of the
rearscreen should be wiped gently with a
cloth in the direction of the filaments to
avoid damaging the heating device. 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 substance many species re-
lease give the paint a dull appearance and
increase the possibility of triggering rust
processes.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be
washed off immediately and thoroughly as
the acid they contain is particularly ag-
gressive.
Detergents cause water pollu-
tion. Therefore the engine
compartment should be
washed in areas equipped for
collecting and purifying the liquid used
in the washing process.
