Skoda A7 Octavia Owner's Manual page 305

WARNING
Always read and observe the warnings before completing any work in the
■
engine compartment » page 272.
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 difficulty
by other road users.
H7 and H8 bulbs are pressurised and may burst when changing the bulb -
■
risk of injury! We therefore recommended wearing gloves and safety
glasses when changing a bulb.
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 similar.
The cap of the filament bulb must always be seated correctly in the head-
■
light, otherwise this may allow water and debris to enter the headlight - risk of
damage to the headlights.
Note
We recommend that a box of replacement bulbs always be carried in the vehi-
cle.
