Headlight lenses
In cool or humid weather, condensation may
form on the interior of outside lamps. The con-
densation will disappear after a short time when
driving with the headlamps switched on. The
headlamp glasses do not need to be changed.
If the headlamps do not defrost despite driving
with the headlamps switch ed on, and additional
moisture builds up, for example water droplets
in the lamps, have them checked by your BMW
center.
Xenon lamps
These bulbs have a very long service life and are
highly unlikely to fail. If a xenon lamp fails never-
theless, switch on the fog lamps and continue
the journey with great ca re, provided that local
legislation does not prohibit this.
Have all work on the xenon lamp system
performed only by your BMW center. Due
to high voltage, there is a risk of fatal injury if
work on the xenon lamps is carried out
improperly. <
Removing the headlamp cover
1.Pull the wire brackets over the notches, see
arrows, and fold to the side.
2. Fold away the headlamp cover.
Be careful when attaching the headlamp
cover and ensure that both wire brackets
are securely in place; otherwise, leaks could
occur and cause damage to the headlamp
system. <
Attach the headlamp cover in reverse order.
Halogen headlamps
Halogen low beams and high beams
H7 bulb, 55 watts Always wear gloves and eye protection;
the atmosphere within the H7 bulb is
pressurized. Otherwise, ther e is a risk of injury if
the bulb is damaged. <
