116)

Before replacing the bulb, wait for the

exhaust ducts to cool down: DANGER OF

SCALDING!

117)

Modifications or repairs to the electric

system that are not carried out properly

or do not take the system technical

specifications into account can cause

malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.

118)

Halogen bulbs contain pressurised

gas, in the case of breakage they may

burst causing glass fragments to be

projected outwards.

119)

Only replace the light bulbs when the

engine is off and in a position that does

not interfere with traffic and lets you safely

replace them (see the description in the

"Replacement” paragraph). Also ensure

that the engine is cold, to prevent the risk

of burns.

50)

Halogen bulbs must be handled

holding the metallic part only. Touching

the transparent part of the bulb with your

fingers may reduce the intensity of the

emitted light and even reduce the lifespan

of the bulb. In the event of accidental

contact, wipe the bulb with a cloth

moistened with alcohol and let the bulb

dry.

51)

Where possible, it is advisable to have

bulbs changed at a Fiat Dealership. The

correct operation and direction of the

external lights are absolutely essential for

the safety of the car and of compliance

with the law.
