Replacing bulbs

General information
Warning!
Risk of short circuit.
Always switch off the relevant components
when changing bulbs.
Danger!
Risk of serious personal injury or death. The
Bi-Xenon headlights are under high voltage
when installed.
Exercise extreme caution when working in the
area of the Bi-Xenon headlights.
Warning!
Risk of damage. Bulbs of a higher wattage
can damage the lamp housing.
Only use the bulbs specified in the bulb chart.
New bulbs must be clean and free from oil,
grease and fingerprints. Therefore, never
touch bulbs with your bare hands. Use a
cloth or soft paper while replacing bulbs.
Caution!
Risk of damage to headlights due to excessive
temperatures and abrasion.
Attach no coverings (e.g. films, "stone
guards") in the area of the headlights.
Use soapy water only to clean light lenses
and plastic headlight lenses. In no case may
chemical cleaners or other volatile cleaning
fluids be used.
To prevent scratches, do not rub with a dry or
merely moist cloth, tissue or insect sponges.
