HAZARD WARNING  
LIGHTS  
REPLACING A BULB  
WARNING  
135) 136) 137)  
43) 44)  
135) 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.  
136) Halogen bulbs contain pressurised  
gas, in the case of breakage they may  
burst causing glass fragments to be  
projected outwards.  
137) 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 chapter). Also ensure that  
the engine is cold, to prevent the risk of  
burns.  
Press button (A) fig. 128 to switch the  
lights on/off. Warning lights  
GENERAL  
INSTRUCTIONS  
and  
in the instrument panel are lit up when  
the lights are ON.  
Before replacing a bulb check the  
contacts for oxidation;  
burnt bulbs must be replaced by  
others of the same type and power;  
after replacing a headlight bulb,  
always check its alignment;  
WARNING The use of hazard warning  
lights is governed by the highway  
code of the country you are driving in:  
comply with legal requirements.  
when a light is not working, check  
that the corresponding fuse is intact  
before replacing a bulb. For the  
location of fuses, refer to the "Fuses  
replacement" chapter in this section.  
NOTE the weather is cold or damp or  
after heavy rain or after washing, the  
surface of headlights or rear lights  
may steam up and/or form drops of  
condensation on the inside. This  
is a natural phenomenon due to the  
difference in temperature and humidity  
between the inside and the outside  
of the glass which does not indicate  
a fault and does not compromise the  
normal operation of lighting devices.  
The mist disappears quickly when  
the lights are turned on, starting from  
the centre of the vent, extending  
progressively towards the edges.  
IMPORTANT  
43) 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.  
44) 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.
