EMERGENCIES
Note If unsure of the bulb replacement process for any of the lamps, please have the
work carried out by a suitably trained service technician.
Notes when replacing bulbs
• Switch the ignition off and remove the keys.
• Switch off the related switch.
• It is important to t only bulbs of the specied wattage.
• Do not touch bulbs or reectors with bare hands. Greasy ngers cause stains
which evaporate, eventually resulting in a dull reector. Grease spots on Halogen
bulbs will, within a short time, lead to bulb failure. Clean stained bulbs with
methylated spirits.

Detailed procedures for headlamp aiming are given in the relevant service
