If you vehicle is equipped with LED lamps, you
can check this as follows: the light cone will move
from top to bottom and back again when the
engine starts. For this to work, the low beam
needs to have been switched on before the
engine is started.
Bulbs and lights are a major element in vehicle
safety. Therefore, ensure that they are always
working. Have the headlamp setting checked reg‐
ularly.

Before changing the lamps, switch off the
vehicle's lighting system. You can thus avoid
a short circuit.
