Replacing bulbs
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Bulbs, lamps and connectors can get very hot
when operating. If you change a bulb, you
could burn yourself on these components.
There is a risk of injury.
Allow these components to cool down before
changing a bulb.
Do not use a bulb that has been dropped or if
its glass tube has been scratched.
The bulb may explode if:
Ryou touch it
Rit is hot
Ryou drop it
Ryou scratch it
Only operate bulbs in enclosed lamps
designed for that purpose. Only install spare
bulbs of the same type and the specified volt- age.
Marks on the glass tube reduce the service
life of the bulbs. Do not touch the glass tube
with your bare hands. If necessary, clean the
glass tube when cold with alcohol or spirit and
rub it off with a lint-free cloth.
Protect bulbs from moisture during opera-
tion. Do not allow bulbs to come into contact
with liquids.
Only replace the bulbs listed (
Ypage 130).
Have the bulbs that you cannot replace your- self replaced at a qualified specialist work-
shop.
If you require assistance replacing bulbs, con-
sult a qualified specialist workshop.
If the new bulb still does not light up, consult
a qualified specialist workshop.
Headlamps and lights are an important
aspect of vehicle safety. You must therefore
make sure that these function correctly at all
times. Have the headlamp setting ch ecked
r

egularly.
Vehicles with LED headlamps: the front
and rear light clusters of your vehicle are
equipped with LED light bulbs. Do not replace the bulbs yourself. Contact a qualified spe-
cialist workshop which has the necessary
specialist knowledge and tools to carry out
the work required.
