When installing a bulb, the lug on the base of the bulb
must be inserted into the appropriate mounting on the
bulb housing.
– Attach the new bulb to the connector ⇒ in “Changing
bulbs” on page 276.

placing the base of the bulb directly behind one of the

bulb housing.
– Press the connector in the direction of the arrow
⇒ fig. 263 until the bulb engages.
– Check that the bulb is securely seated in the bulb
housing.
– Fit the rubber cap and install the headlight ⇒ page 278.
– Check whether the new bulb is working.

Note
Ensure that the rubber cap is seated correctly so that no water can
enter the unit.
