Bulb changeGeneral notesBefore changing any bulb first turn off the equipment concerned.
Do not touch the bulb glass. Fingerprints vaporise in the heat, causing a
reduction in the bulb life and condensation on the mirror surface, thus
reducing efficiency.
A bulb should only be replaced by one of the same type. The type is inscribed
on the bulb, either on the glass part or on the base.
It is highly recommended to keep a box of spare bulbs in the vehicle. At the
very least, the bulbs that most affect road safety should have spares in the
vehicle.

Note
•
Due to the difficulty in accessing the lamps, these must be changed by an
Authorised Service Centre. However, the following is a description of how to
change the bulbs except for the fog lights and interior bulbs.
19)For these type of headlights, the bulbs must be changed by an Authorised Service
Centre, given that complex elements of the vehicle must be removed and that the au-
tomatic control system must be reset.20)Xenon bulbs discharge emit 2.5 times as much light flux and have a useful life five
times greater than halogen bulbs.
21)Electronically controlled single filament bulb for Stop/Side bulbs. If the bulb blows
it will not work or Stop position.
