CHANGE A BULB

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS  
Always check the height of the headlight beam after

When a light is not working, check that the  
corresponding fuse is intact before changing a bulb.  
For the location of fuses, refer to the paragraph “If  
a fuse blows” in this section;  
Halogen bulbs must be handled touching only the metallic part. If the transparent bulb is touched

Halogen bulbs contain pressurised gas, in the case of breakage they may burst.

the headlights are turned on. Drops inside the headlight mean water  
infiltration: contact Fiat Dealership.
