Installing
Install in the reverse order of removal, observing the following:
Caution
Risk of damage to the headlight.
♦ Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with bare fingers.
Fingers leave traces of grease on the glass bulb, which
evaporate when the bulb is switched on and cause the
glass bulb to cloud over.
♦ Wear e.g. clean fabric gloves when inserting bulbs.
♦ Make sure the bulb holder is correctly seated when instal‐
ling. The ingress of water will cause permanent damage
to the headlight.
– Check functions of headlight.
– Check headlight adjustment, and readjust as necessary

replace the entire headlight.

would make installation of the repair kit unnecessary.
