CHANGING A BULB

1. Dipped beams (H7-55 W)

2. Main beams (H1-55 W)

3. Sidelamps (H6 W-6 W)

4. Direction indicators
(H21-21 W) In some climatic conditions (e.g.
low temperature or humidity), the
presence of misting on the internal
surface of the glass of the head-
lamps and rear lamps is normal;
it disappears after the lamps have
been on for a few minutes.
The headlamps are fi tted
with polycarbonate glass
with a protective coating:

 do not clean them using a
dry or abrasive cloth, nor
with a detergent or solvent
product,

 use a sponge and soapy water,

 when using a high pressure
washer on persistent marks, do
not direct at the lamps or their
outlines for too long, so as not
to damage their coating and
their seals.

 Do not touch the bulb directly
with your fi ngers, use lint-free
cloths.
Changing a halogen bulb should
only be done after the headlamp
has been switched off for a few
minutes (risk of serious burns).
It is imperative to use only anti-
ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs in order
not to damage the headlamp. Dipped beam headlamps
