WARNING

Bulbs, lamps and plug connectors can

become very hot during use. When replacing

a bulb, you could burn yourself on these com-

ponents. There is a risk of injury.

Allow these components to cool down before

replacing the bulb.

Do not use a bulb that has been dropped or if

its glass tube has been scratched.

The bulb may explode if:

R

you touch it

R

it is hot

R

you drop it

R

you scratch it

Only operate bulbs in enclosed lamps

designed for that purpose. Only fit spare

bulbs of the same type and the specified volt-

age.

Marks on the glass tube reduce the service

life of the bulbs. Do not touch the glass tube

with your bare hands. If necessary, clean the

glass tube when cold with alcohol or spirit and

rub it off with a lint-free cloth.

Protect bulbs from moisture during opera-

tion. Do not allow bulbs to come into contact

with liquids.

There are bulbs other than the xenon bulbs

that you cannot replace yourself. Replace

only the bulbs listed (Y page 126). Have the

bulbs that you cannot replace yourself

replaced at a qualified specialist workshop.

If you require assistance replacing bulbs, con-

sult a qualified specialist workshop.

If the new bulb still does not light up, consult

a qualified specialist workshop.
