Lamps and bulbs

The lamps and bulbs make essential contribu-
tions to the safety of your vehicle. Therefore,
comply fully with the following instructions dur-
ing bulb replacement. If you are not familiar with
the procedures, BMW recommends that you
have your BMW center carry out the work.

Do not touch the glass portion of a new
bulb with your bare hands since even

small amounts of impurities burn in to the sur-
face and reduce the service life of the bulb. Use
a clean cloth, paper napkin or a similar material,
or hold the bulb by its metallic base.

<

A replacement bulb set is available from your
BMW center.

Before 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
observe this precaution could result in short cir-
cuits.
To prevent injuries and damage, always comply
with any instructions provided by the bulb man-
ufacturer.
