Lamps and bulbsLow beams and high beamsEngine compartment, left side:
1 Low beams

H7 bulb, 55 watt

fore, wear safety glasses and
protective gloves. Failure to comply
with these precautions could result in
physical injury if the bulb breaks.<
1. Press the two release catches at the
front while simultaneously turning
them to the left to remove the bulb
holder
2. Remove and replace the bulb.
When cleaning the headlamps,
please observe the following:
>Do not clean by wiping with a dry
cloth (scratches). Never use abra-
sives or strong solvents to clean the
covers
>Remove dirt and contamination (such
as insects) by soaking with BMW Car
Shampoo and then rinsing with plenty
of water
>Always use a deicer spray to remove
accumulated ice and snow Ð never
use a scraper.<
Xenon lamps
The service life of these bulbs is very
long and the probability of a failure is
very low, provided that they are not
switched on and off an unusual number
of times. If one of these bulbs should
nevertheless fail, it is possible to
continue driving with great caution
using the fog lamps, provided local
traffic laws do not prohibit this.
Because of the extremely high
voltages involved, any work on the
lighting system should be carried out by
technically-qualified personnel only.
Otherwise, there is a risk of fatal
injury.<
