Lamps and bulbs are an important compo-
nent of vehicle safety. Therefore, proceed
carefully when handling bulbs. The manu-
facturer of your MINI recommends that you
have such work performed by your MINI
Dealer if you are not familiar with the pro-
cedures.

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

even small amounts of impurities burn into
the surface and reduce the service life of
the bulb. Use a clean cloth, paper napkin, or
similar material, or hold the bulb by its
metallic base.

<

A replacement bulb set is available at your
MINI Dealer.

Whenever 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 do this could result in
short circuits.
To prevent injuries and damage, comply
with any instructions provided by the bulb
manufacturer.
