Changing bulbs

Before
starting to replace a bulb, switch off
the light concerned.

Do
not touch the glass part of the new bulb

with
bare fingers because the finger marks
left
on the glass evaporate when the bulb

becomes
hot, the vapour settles on the re­
flector and dims it.

Always
use the same type of bulb. The
des­

ignation is marked on the base of the bulb
or on the
glass.

It is advisable to always a carry a box of

spare
bulbs in the vehicle. These can be ob­
tained from Volkswagen dealers. It should contain at least the following bulbs which
are essential for traffic safety:
