Replacement of bulbs
To obtain maximum lighting effect and to forestall the chances of lights going out,
the headlight bulbs should be changed every year, suitably during the autumn.
The following pages explain how the bulbs in the various lighting units are
replaced. Make sure when fitting lamps that the guide pin on the socket fits into
i ts corresponding recess.
When installing headlight bulbs, do not touch the glass with your fingers. The
reason for this is that grease, oil or any other impurities can be carbonized onto
the bulb and this could damage the reflector.
Replacing the bulb for the lights for the
luggage and engine compartments
Slacken the screw holding the lamp shade.
