 Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Bulb arrangement in the front headlights
155
Replacing the bulb for the low beam (Halogen headlights)
155
Changing the bulb for main beam, separate daytime running lights, and
parking light
155
Changing the bulb for the front turn signal light
156
Replacing light bulbs for fog lights
157
Changing the bulb for the licence plate light
157

158
Replacing the bulbs in the taillight assembly
158
We recommend having bulbs replaced by a specialist garage or seeking other
expert help in the event of any uncertainties.
▶ Switch off the ignition and all of the lights before replacing a bulb.
▶ Faulty bulbs must only be replaced with the same type of bulbs. The designa-
tion is located on the light socket or the glass bulb.
We recommend having the headlight settings checked by a specialist garage after replacing a bulb in the low, high or fog beam.
In the case of failure of a Xenon gas discharge bulb or an LED diode, visit a
specialist garage.
WARNING■ Always read and observe the warning notes before completing any work
in the engine compartment » page 125.■
Accidents can be caused if the road in front of the vehicle is not suffi-
ciently illuminated and the vehicle cannot or can only be seen with difficul-
ty by other road users. 
