PEUGEOT 308 Handbook page 238

Practical information
The headlamps are fitted with
polycarbonate glass with a protective
coating:
 do not clean them using a dry
or abrasive cloth, nor with a
detergent or solvent product,
 use a sponge and soapy water or a
pH neutral product,
 when using a high pressure washer
on persistent marks, do not keep
the lance directed towards the
lamps or their edges for too long,
so as not to damage their protective
coating and seals.
Changing a bulb should only be done
after the headlamp has been switched
off for a few minutes (risk of serious
burns).
 Do not touch the bulb directly with
your fingers, use a lint-free cloth.
It is imperative to use only anti-
ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs to avoid
damaging the headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a
new bulb with the same type and
specification.
236
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal surface of the
glass of the headlamps and rear lamps
is normal; it disappears after the lamps
have been on for a few minutes.
Daytime running lamps / sidelamps
For the replacement of this type of LED lamp
and lighting guides, contact a PEUGEOT dealer

A replacement kit for the LEDs is available from
PEUGEOT dealers.
