The lamps 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 product.

Make sure the fluid poured into the windscreen and headlamp washer reservoir is of good quality.

High-pressure washing: when using this type of washing on stubborn dirt, do not concentrate the spray on the headlamps, lamps and their surrounds, to avoid damaging their varnish and sealing gasket.

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.
