Shampoo and then rinsing with plenty

Xenon lamps*

The service life of these bulbs is very

long and the probability of a failure is

very low, provided that they are not

switched on and off an unusual number

of times. If one of these bulbs should

nevertheless fail, it is possible to con-

tinue driving with great caution using

the fog lamps, provided traffic laws in

your area do not prohibit this.

Because of the extremely high

voltages involved, any work on the

lighting system should be carried out by

technically-qualified personnel only.

Otherwise, there is a risk of fatal in-

jury.<
