Lamps and bulbs
The lamps and bulbs are essential factors
contributing to the safety of your vehicle.
Therefore, comply fully with the following
instructions during bulb replacement. If you
are not familiar with the specified proce-
dures, have the replacements carried out at
your BMW center.
Never touch the glass on new bulbs
with your bare fingers, as even minute
amounts of contamination will burn into the
bulb's surface and reduce its service life.
Use a clean cloth, napkin, etc., or hold the
bulb by its metal socket.<
You can obtain a selection of replacement
bulbs at your BMW center. To prevent short circuits, before wor-
king on any electrical system, equip-
ment or accessory you should always
switch it off and disconnect the cable from
the battery's negative terminal before star-
ting.
To avoid possible injury or equipment
damage when changing bulbs, observe any
instructions provided by the bulb manufac-
turer.<
When maintaining the headlamps,
please comply with the instructions in
the separate Care manual.<
Headlamps
For checking and adjusting headlamp
aim, please contact your BMW
center.<

release fasteners down.
