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.
Apply the sticker in a visible
position for the driver to in-
dicate that the tyre has been treat-
ed with the quick tyre repair kit. Dri-
ve carefully especially when corner-
ing. Do not exceed 80 km/h. Avoid
heavy braking and accelerating.
WARNING
If read pressure is below 1.3
bar, stop immediately and
contact Fiat Dealership. If read pres-
sure is equal to at least 1.3 bar, re-
store proper pressure (engine running
and handbrake on) and then drive
with the utmost care.
WARNING
If when restoring pressure it
is impossible to reach at
least 1.8 bar, stop immediately and
contact Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
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.
