Caution
| Risk of damage to the headlight. |
| Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with bare
fingers. Fingers leave traces of grease on the glass
bulb, which vaporise when the bulb is switched on and
cause the glass bulb to cloud over. |
| Wear, for example, clean fabric gloves when
inserting bulbs. |
| Make sure the housing cover is correctly seated when
installing. The ingress of water will lead to permanent
damage to the headlight. |
