fAlways switch off the relevant consumer when
changing bulbs.
Danger of injury. The headlights are under
high voltage when installed.
fExercise extreme caution when working in the
area of the headlights.
Risk of damage. Bulbs of a higher wattage
can damage the light housing.
fOnly use the bulbs specified in the bulb chart.
fBulbs must be clean and free from oil, grease
or fingerprints.
fNever touch bulbs with your bare hands.
Use a cloth or soft paper when replacing bulbs.
fAlways carry spare bulbs with you.
In certain countries, the carrying of spare
bulbs is mandatory.
Caution!
Risk of damage to headlights due to exces-
sive temperatures and abrasion.
fAttach no coverings (e.g. films, “stone
guards“) in the area of the headlights.

ical cleaners or other volatile cleaning fluids be
