Caution
•
The halogen lamps (H3, H7...) are pressurised and might explode on
changing them.
•
Therefore protective gloves and glasses should be worn when changing a
halogen lamp.Note
•
Due to the difficulty in accessing the lamps, any replacement work should
be done by a SEAT dealer. However, we shall explain how to change these
lamps, except for the xenon lights*.

Dipped headlights
Main beam headlights
10)On this type of headlight, the bulb changes must be made by the SEAT dealer, given
that complex elements must be removed from the vehicle and a reset must be made
on the automatic control system incorporated.11)The Xenon bulbs discharge 2.5 times the light flux and have an average lifespan of 5
times more than that of halogen bulbs, this means that, except due to unusual circum-
stances, there is no need to change the bulbs for the whole life of the vehicle.
