When replacing a bulb, you could burn your‐
self on these component parts.
Allow the component parts to cool
#
down before replacing the bulbs.
When you are replacing the light bulb, observe
the following:
Do not use any light bulb that has been drop‐
R
ped or has scratches on its glass tube. Other‐
wise, the light bulb may explode.
The bulb may explode if it is hot or if you
R
touch, drop or scratch it.
Stains on the glass tube will reduce the
R
service life of the light bulb. Do not touch the
glass tube with your bare hands. If necessary,
clean the glass tube with alcohol or spirits
while it is cold state and wipe it down with a
lint-free cloth.
Protect light bulbs from humidity and do not
R
bring them into contact with liquids.
Before changing the bulbs, switch off the
R
vehicle's lighting system. This will prevent a
short circuit.
Use bulbs only in enclosed lamps that have
R
been designed for them.
Use only spare bulbs of the same type and
R
with the correct voltage.
Always ensure the bulbs are firmly secured.
Have the following light bulbs changed at a quali‐
fied specialist workshop only:
Bulbs in the license plate lamp

Front fog lamp

Side marker lamps

Bulbs and lamps are major elements in vehicle
safety. Therefore, ensure that they are always
working. Have the headlamp setting checked reg‐
ularly.

sult a qualified specialist workshop.
