IN AN EMERGENCY
IMPORTANT For cars equipped
with optional alloy wheels, a specific
spare wheel is required which differs
from that used on cars equipped with
steel rims. When fitting alloy rims to
replace steel rims at a later date, the
four original wheel bolts should be
changed with a new set of adequately
sized bolts and a specific spare wheel.
It is advised to keep the bolts and
the spare wheel, which would become
necessary if you should decide to re-
turn to the original type of wheels.
IF A BULB BURNS
OUT 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.
Modifications or repairs
to the electrical system
carried out incorrectly
and without bearing the features
of the system in mind can cause
malfunctions with the risk of fire.
You should, where pos-
sible, have your bulbs
changed at a Fiat Dealer-
ship. Correct operation of the ex-
ternal light beams are essential
for safe driving and compliance
with legal requirements.
Halogen bulbs contain
pressurised gas which, if
broken, may cause small
fragments of glass to be pro-
jected outwards.
