– Carefully pull gas discharge bulb -1- out of mounting.
Installing:
Note
♦
Do not touch bulb glass when fitting a gas discharge lamp
bulb . Fingers leave traces of grease on the glass, which when
switching the gas discharge lamp bulb on, evaporate and
cause the glass to cloud over.
♦
Use extreme care when fitting a gas discharge lamp bulb and
do not subject the bulb to mechanical stress. The glass bulb
is extremely sensitive and is subjected to a very high pressure.
♦
Avoid looking directly into the collimated beam as the UV rays
from the gas discharge bulb are about 2.5 times greater than
normal halogen bulbs.
♦
When installing cap, ensure that it is seated correctly. The in‐
gress of water will lead to permanent damage of the headlight.
♦
If a headlight is removed with automatic range control, the ba‐
sic setting of the headlight should always be checked when
reinstalling ⇒ Maintenance ; Booklet 20.1 .
Installation is performed in the reverse order of installation; when
doing this, note the following:
– Check function of headlight.
– Check headlight setting and adjust headlight as necessary
⇒ Maintenance ; Booklet 20.1
