ARNING Risk of burns from hot compo-
nent parts whilst replacing a bulb
Bulbs, lamps and plug connectors can become
very hot during operation.
When replacing a bulb, you could burn yourself
on these component parts.
Allow the component parts to cool down
#
before replacing the bulbs.
Important safety notes
Before changing the bulbs, switch o the vehi-
R
cle's lighting system. This will prevent a short
circuit.
Use only spare bulbs of the same type and with
R
the correct voltage.
Use bulbs only in enclosed lamps that have
R
been designed for them.
Do not use any light source that has been
R
dropped or has scratches on its glass tube.
Otherwise, the light source may explode.
The light source may explode under the follow-
R
ing conditions:
If it is hot and you touch it
-
If you drop it
-
If you scratch it
-
Stains on the glass tube will reduce the service
R
life of the light source. Do not touch the glass
tube with your bare hands. If necessary, clean
the glass tube with alcohol or spirits while it is
cold and wipe it down with a lint-free cloth.
Protect light sources from moisture and do not
R
bring them into contact with liquids.
Always ensure the bulbs are rmly secured.
If your vehicle is equipped with LED modules, you
can check this as follows: the light cone will move
from top to bottom and back again when the vehi-
cle starts. For this to work, low beam needs to
have been switched on before the vehicle is star-
ted.
Bulbs and lamps are major elements in vehicle
safety. Therefore, ensure that they are always
working. Have the headlamp setting checked regu-
larly.
If the new light source also does not light up, con-
sult a quali ed specialist workshop.
