ing your BMW Center perform any work that
you do not feel competent to perform yourself
or that is not described here.
Do not touch the glass portion of a new
bulb with your bare hands since even
small amounts of impurities burn into the sur-
face and reduce the service life of the bulb. Use
a clean cloth, paper napkin or a similar material,
or hold the bulb by its metallic base.<
A replacement bulb set is available from your
BMW Center.
The onboard tool kit is stored in a tool pouch. It
is located in the cargo bay beneath the floor
panel.
When working on electrical systems,
always begin by switching off the corre-
sponding consumers, otherwise short-circuits
could result. To avoid possible injury or equip-

observe any instructions provided by the bulb
manufacturer.<
