WARNING
136) 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

burst causing glass fragments to be
projected outwards.

138) 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.
139) Before replacing the bulb, wait for the
exhaust ducts to cool down: DANGER OF
SCALDING!
140) Due to the high power supply
voltage, gas discharge bulbs (Xenon)
should only be replaced by specialised
technicians: danger of death! Contact a
Fiat Dealership.

36) 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.
37) 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.
38) The intervention must be carried out
taking all precautions necessary to avoid
damaging the bodywork (please use a
sufficiently rigid and appropriately thick
plastic card).
