HEADLIGHTS
BEAM DIRECTION
The correct orientation of the headlights
is important for drivers comfort and safe-
ty. Besides, it is a specific rule of the high-
way code.
The headlights must be correctly directed
to ensure the best visibility conditions for
all drivers.
Contact Fiat Dealership to have the head-
lights properly adjusted.
Check beam aiming every time the load or
its distribution changes.
IMPORTANT When turning on (Xenon)
gas discharge headlight lamps (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided), it is nor-
mal that there should be a vertical move-
ment of reflectors, and consequently the
same will also happen to the light beam,
for the time required to achieve the cor-
rect headlight trim stabilisation, equal to
approx. 2 seconds.
