Do not touch the glass of the bulb during installation. Fingers will leave traces of grease on the glass which, when the light is switched on, will evaporate and cloud the glass.

During installation, ensure proper seating of the cap. It is destroyed by entry of water into headlamp.

Install in reverse order of removal. Note the following:

- Check headlamp for functions.

- Check headlamp adjustment and adjust the headlamps.
