Changing a bulb
The headlamps are fitted 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 keep the lance directed towards the lamps or their edges for too long, so as not to damage their protective coating and seals,
- do not touch the bulb directly with your fingers, use lint-free cloths.
Changing a 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 antiultraviolet (UV) type bulbs in order not to damage the headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a new bulb with the same type and specification.
