CHANGING A BULB
If the exterior lights have just been switched off, give the bulbs time to cool. Handling them when hot may cause serious personal injury or death.
Make sure not to touch any electrical connectors or circuit boards while changing a bulb, a possible residual electrical current could result in personal injury or death.
Always replace bulbs with the correct type and specification. If in any doubt, contact a retailer/authorized repairer for advice.
Before attempting a bulb change, make sure that the ignition and the affected light are switched off. If the circuit remains live, a short circuit can occur, which may damage the vehicle's electrical system.
Not all bulbs are renewable. The following bulbs can be renewed:
Variant | Bulb description | Specification |
---|---|---|
Xenon headlights. | Front turn signal. | PWY24W |
All vehicles outboard removable rear light. | Reversing light. | W16W |
All other lights are either LED or xenon units, and should only be renewed or serviced by qualified personnel.
To avoid accidents leading to serious injury or death, replacement or maintenance of xenon lights should only be carried out by suitably qualified personnel.
