LAMPS AND BULBSProceed carefully when handling lamps and 
bulbs. If you are not familiar with any of 
the procedures, consult your MINI Dealer.
Do not touch the glass portion of a 
new bulb with your bare hands since 
even small amounts of impurities burn into 
the surface and reduce the service life of 
the bulb. Use a clean cloth, paper napkin, or 
similar material, or hold the bulb by its 
metallic base.<
Replacement bulbs are available from your 
MINI Dealer.
Whenever working on the electrical 
system, switch off the electrical 
accessory you are working on or disconnect 
the cable from the negative terminal of the 
battery. Failure to do this could result in 
short circuits.
To prevent injuries and damage, comply 
with any instructions provided by the bulb 
manufacturer.<

The H7 bulb is pressurized. Therefore, 
wear safety glasses and protective 
gloves. If the lamp is damaged there is a 
risk of injury.
1. Pull on the tab of the cover of the defec-
tive lamp and open it
2. Press the retaining wire lightly at the 
eyelet and at the same time guide it out-
wards
3. Fold the retaining wire down
4. Remove the lamp holder and replace the 
lamp
5. Reinsert the lamp holder in the correct 
position
6. Fold the retaining wire back up and 
catch in place. Ensure that it is placed in 
the middle of the wire connector.Xenon lamps* The service life of these bulbs is very long 
and the probability of a failure is very low, 
provided that they are not switched on and 
off an unusual number of times. If one of 
these bulbs should nevertheless fail, it is 
possible to continue driving with great cau-
tion using the fog lamps, provided traffic 
laws in your area do not prohibit this.
Because of the extremely high volt-
ages involved, any work on the xenon 
lighting system should be carried out by 
technically-qualified personnel only. Other-
wise, there is a risk of fatal injury.<
