Lights and bulbs
General information
Lights and bulbs make an essential contribution
to vehicle safety.
All headlights and lights are made using LED or
laser technology.
Some items of equipment use light-emitting di‐
odes installed behind a cover as a light source.
These light-emitting diodes are related to con‐
ventional lasers and are officially designated as
Class 1 light-emitting diodes.
The manufacturer of the vehicle recommends
that you let a dealer's service center or another
qualified service center or repair shop perform
the work in case of a malfunction.

damage the retina of the eye. There is a risk of

mends that the work on the lighting system in‐

retina of the eye. There is a risk of injury. Do not

droplets in the light, have the headlights
