cloth that is free of grease.

Danger of burns!
Bulbs can become very hot.
Coming into contact with them could
result in burns. Let the bulb fixture
cool down before replacing the bulb.
Danger of injury!
Xenon bulbs* are under high
voltage. If you touch the electrical
contacts of the xenon bulbs*, you may
get an electric shock and could sustain
serious to fatal injuries. Therefore, do
not remove the cover of the xenon bulb*.
Do not change the xenon bulbs*
yourself; only have them changed by a
qualified specialist workshop that has
the necessary expertise and tools for
performing the work involved, suchas a
smart center.
