Changing bulbs

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
→ Indicator lamp
→ Information on changing bulbs
→ Changing bulbs in the halogen headlights
→ Changing bulbs in the front bumper
→ Changing bulbs in the front bumper (R-Line)
→ Changing bulbs in the tail light cluster in the body
→ LED lights on the vehicles
Changing the vehicle bulbs requires considerable technical skill. If you do not feel confident with the procedure, Volkswagen recommends that
you have the bulbs changed by a Volkswagen dealership, or that you seek other expert assistance. You should contact a professional mechanic
if other vehicle parts around the lights have to be removed, or if gas discharge bulbs (xenon lamps) have to be replaced.
You should keep a box with spare light bulbs for the lights that ensure the vehicle is roadworthy in the vehicle at all times. Spare bulbs are
available from Volkswagen dealerships. In some countries it is a legal requirement to have these spare bulbs in the vehicle.
