CAUTION
Do not take hold of the glass bulb with naked fingers (even the smallest amount
of dirt reduces the working life of the light bulb). Use a clean cloth, napkin, or sim-
ilar.
Note
This Owner's Manual only describes the replacement of bulbs where it is possi-
■
ble to replace the bulbs on your own without any complications arising. Other
bulbs must be replaced by a specialist garage.
We recommend that a box of replacement bulbs always be carried in the vehi-
■
cle. Replacement bulbs can be purchased from ŠKODAOriginal Accessories.
We recommend having the headlight settings checked by a specialist garage af-
■
ter replacing a bulb in the main, low or fog beam.
Consult a specialist garage in the event of a failure in a xenon gas discharge
■
lamp.
