Lamps and bulbs

Xenon lamps

*

The service life of these bulbs is very
long and the probability of a failure is
very low, provided that they are not
switched on and off an unusual number
of times. If one of these bulbs should
nevertheless fail, it is possible to con-
tinue driving with great caution using
the fog lamps, provided traffic laws in
your area do not prohibit this.

Because of the extremely high
voltages involved, any work on

the xenon lighting system and bulb
replacement should be performed only
by technicians with the appropriate
qualifications. Failure to comply with
this creates a risk of fatal injury.
