Replacing a bulb

Under certain climatic conditions (low temperature, humidity), condensation may form on the inner surface of the headlamp and rear lamp lenses. This is normal and disappears a few minutes after the lights are switched on.

Never look closely at the light beam of LED lamps - Risk of serious eye injury!

The headlamps are fitted with polycarbonate lenses coated with a protective varnish:

- Do not clean them with a dry or abrasive cloth, or with a detergent or solvent.

- Use a sponge and soapy water or a neutral pH product.

- When using a high-pressure washer on stubborn dirt, do not hold the lance on the headlamps, lights or their surrounds for prolonged periods, to avoid damaging their varnish and sealing gasket.

Always replace a bulb with the ignition off and the headlamp / light switched off for several minutes - Risk of serious burns! Do not touch the bulb directly with your fingers: use lint-free cloths.

Only use anti-ultraviolet (UV) bulbs to avoid damaging the headlamp.

Always replace a faulty bulb with a new bulb of the same part number and specification. To avoid unbalanced lighting, replace bulbs in pairs.

Refitting the lights

Carry out the operations in the reverse order of removal.
