Replacing low beam headlight bulbs
On models with halogen headlights, the low
beam headlight bulb can be replaced by the
owner.
Before the bulb can be replaced, the plastic cov-
ering over the headlight housing has to be
removed, see the article "Replacing bulbs."
CAUTION
Never touch the glass of bulbs with your fin-
gers. Grease and oils from your fingers vapor-
ize in the heat and will leave a deposit on the
reflector, which will damage it.
