WARNING: Always replace the clip (1) after each removal.

Note:
  • The front sensor does not have the same electronic characteristics as the rear sensor, so it is very important not to swap them.

  • Always perform an initialisation of the xenon lamp system (Chapter Xenon Lamps, Xenon Headlamps: Adjustment, page 80C-14) and adjust the headlamps.
