HEADLIGHTS
LIGHT BEAM DIRECTION
The correct direction of the headlights is
essential for the comfort and safety of the
driver and other road users. The head-
lights must be correctly directed to ensure
the best visibility. Contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship to have the direction checked and, if
necessary, adjusted.
HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT
CORRECTOR
This device works with the key at MAR
and the dipped beam headlights on. The
car will slant backwards when it is loaded,
raising the light beam. The beams must
therefore be aimed again in this case. Headlight alignment adjustment
fig. 94
To adjust, press buttons
Òand Óon the
control panel.
The display located on the instrument pan-
el provides the visual indication of the po-
sitions during the adjustment operation.
Position 0– one or two people on front
seats.
Position 1– five people.
Position 2– five people + load in the boot.
Position 3– driver + maximum admitted
load in the boot.
IMPORTANT Check the beam alignment
every time the load transported changes.

ADJUSTMENT ABROAD
fig. 95-96
The dipped headlights are adjusted to
work in the country where the vehicle
was originally purchased. In countries
where vehicles are driven on the other
side of the road, the beams are aligned by
applying a specially designed adhesive film
in order not to dazzle the vehicles trav-
elling in the opposite direction.
Such film is provided by Lineaccessori
Fiat and is available at Fiat Dealerships.
The illustrations refer to the changeover
from driving on the left to driving on the
right.

Depress the clutch pedal ful-
ly to change gear correctly.
There should be no obstacles on the
floor underneath the pedals; make
sure that mats are always flat and do
not interfere with the pedals.
WARNING
Do not drive with your hand
resting on the gear lever as
the force exerted, even if
slight, could lead over time to
premature wear of the gearbox inter-
nal components.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or ski rack from the
roof after use. These accessories decrease
aerodynamic penetration and have a neg-
ative effect on fuel consumption. It is bet-
ter to use a trailer to transport particu-
larly bulky objects.
Electrical devices
Use electrical devices only for the amount
of time needed. The heated rear window,
auxiliary headlights, windscreen wipers and
fan heater use up a considerable amount
of current, causing increased fuel con-
sumption (up to +25% in the urban cycle).
Air conditioning
Air conditioning leads to higher fuel con-
sumption (on average up to +20%). If the
temperature outside is not too extreme,
try and use the air vents.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified spoilers may ad-
versely affect aerodynamics and fuel con-
sumption.SAVING FUEL
Here are some suggestions which may
help you to save fuel and reduce the
amount of toxic emissions released into
the atmosphere.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out
in accordance with the “Scheduled Service
Plan”.
Tyres
Check the tyre pressure at least once
every 4 weeks: if the pressure is too low,
consumption levels increase as resistance
to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot.
The weight of the car (especially when dri-
ving in town) and its arrangement greatly
affect fuel consumption and stability.

CHANGING A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
❒When a light is not working, check that the corresponding fuse is intact before
changing the bulb. For the location of
fuses, refer to the “Changing a fuse”
paragraph in this section;
❒before changing a bulb check the con- tacts for rusting;
❒burnt bulbs must be replaced by othersof the same type and wattage;
❒for safety reasons, always check the di-rection of the headlight beam after
changing a bulb.
IMPORTANT The internal surface of the
light may appear slightly misty: this does
not indicate a fault, and is actually 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 drops 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:
AGlass bulbs: clipped into position. Pull
to remove. B
Bayonet-type bulbs: to remove from
its holder, press the bulb in and turn
it anti-clockwise.
C Tubular bulbs: release them from
their contacts to remove.
D-E Halogen bulbs: to remove the bulb,
release the clip holding the bulb in
place.
Halogen bulbs must be han-
dled holding the metallic part
only. Touching the transpar-
ent part of the bulb with your
fingers may reduce the intensity of the
light emitted and even compromise the
longevity of the bulb itself. In the event
of accidental contact, wipe the bulb
with an alcohol-soaked cloth and leave
to dry.
Modifications or repairs to
the electrical system (ECUs)
that are not carried out properly or
do not take the system’s technical
specifications into account can cause
malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs contain pres-
surised gas which may cause
small fragments of glass to be pro-
jected outwards if the bulb is broken.
