General instructions
A bulb failure is signaled to you
in the multifunction display by a
warning indicator.
A defective bulb places
your safety at risk because
it is easier for other users to
oversee the motorcycle.
Replace defective bulbs as
soon as possible; always carry a
complete set of spare bulbs if
possible.
The bulb is pressurized and
can cause injury if dam-
aged.
Wear eye and hand protection
when replacing bulbs.
An overview of the bulb
types installed in your mo-
torcycle is provided in the chap-
ter "Technical Data".
Do not touch the glass of
new bulbs with your fin-
gers. For installation, use a clean,
dry cloth. Dirt deposits, in par-
ticular oil and grease, interfere
with heat radiation from the bulb.
Overheating and therefore short
service life of the bulbs are the
consequence.
Replacing low-beam bulb
Make sure ground is level and
firm and park motorcycle.
