Xenon lamps

*

The operating life of these lamp units
is extremely long and the likelihood of
failure very low, provided that they are
not switched on and off a very great
number of times. If one of these bulbs
should nevertheless fail, it is possible
to continue driving with great caution
using the fog lamps, provided traffic
laws in your area do not prohibit this.

To avoid risk of potentially fatal
injuries: owing to the extremely

high voltages at which these units oper-
ate, service work should always be
entrusted to qualified personnel.
