Replacing bulbs
To prevent a possible electrical short circuit, switch off
lamp prior to replacing a bulb.
Headlamp adjustment
Correct headlamp adjustment is extremely important.
Check and readjust headlamps at regular intervals and
when a bulb has been replaced.
When replacing bulbs, install only 12 volt bulbs with
the specified watt rating.
When replacing halogen bulbs do not touch glass
portion of bulb with bare hands. Use plain paper or a
clean cloth.
For adjusting headlamp aim see page 268.
Warning!
Warning!
Bulbs and bulb holders can be very hot. Allow the
lamp to cool down before changing a bulb.
Because of high voltage in Xenon lamps, it is
dangerous to replace the bulb of repair the lamp
and its components. We recommend that you have
such work done by a qualified technician.
Halogen lamps contain pressurized gas. A bulb can
explode if you:
•
•
•
touch or move it when hot,
drop the bulb,
scratch the bulb.
Wear eye and hand protection.
