WARNING
129)Before replacing the bulb, wait for the
exhaust ducts to cool down: DANGER OF
SCALDING!
130)Modifications or repairs to the electric
system that are not carried out properly or
do not take the system technical
specifications into account can cause
malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
131)Halogen bulbs contain pressurised gas,
in the case of breakage they may burst
causing glass fragments to be projected
outwards.
132)Only replace the light bulbs when the
engine is off and in a position that does not
interfere with traffic and lets you safely
replace them (see the description in the
“Replacement” paragraph). Also ensure that
the engine is cold, to prevent the risk of
burns.
IMPORTANT
59)Halogen bulbs must be handled holding
the metallic part only. Touching the
transparent part of the bulb with your
fingers may reduce the intensity of the
emitted light and even reduce the lifespan of
the bulb. In the event of accidental contact,
wipe the bulb with a cloth moistened with
alcohol and let the bulb dry.
