Halogen projector headlights with cornering light function
Read and observe
on page 55 first.
For a better cornering illumination, the halogen projector headlights with cor-
nering light function are set in the optimal position in line with the vehicle
speed and the steering angle.
WARNINGIf the halogen projector headlights with cornering light function are faulty,
the headlights are automatically lowered to the emergency position, which
prevents a possible dazzling of oncoming traffic. Thus the illuminated
length of the road is shortened. Drive carefully and visit a specialist garage
as soon as possible.57Lights and visibility

WARNING■Always read and observe the warnings before completing any work in the
engine compartment » page 138.■
Accidents can be caused if the road in front of the vehicle is not suffi-
ciently illuminated and the vehicle cannot or can only be seen with difficul-
ty by other road users.
■
Bulbs H7 and H4 are pressurised and may burst when changed - there is a
risk of injury. We therefore recommended wearing gloves and safety
glasses when changing a bulb.
■
Switch off the respective vehicle light when changing the bulb.
CAUTION
■ Do not take hold of the glass bulb with naked fingers (even the smallest
amount of dirt reduces the working life of the light bulb). Use a clean cloth,
napkin, or similar.■
When removing and installing the number plate light and tail light make sure
that the paintwork of the vehicle and the tail light are not damaged.
Note
■ This Owner's Manual only describes the replacement of bulbs where it is pos-
sible to replace the bulbs on your own without any complications arising. Other
light bulbs should be changed by your specialist garage.■
We recommend that you always carry a box of replacement bulbs in the vehi-
cle. Replacement bulbs can be purchased from ŠKODAOriginal Accessories.
■
We recommend having the headlight settings checked by a specialist garage
after replacing a bulb in the main beam, low beam or fog lights.
■
Visit a specialist garage if an LED is faulty.
