CHANGING BULBS
Before starting to replace a bulb, switch
off the light concerned.
Do not touch the glass part of the new
bulb with bare fingers because the finger
marks left on the glass evaporate when
the bulb gets hot, the vapour settles on
the reflector and dims it.
Always use the same type of bulb. The
designation is marked on the base of the
bulb.
It is advisable to always carry a box of
spare bulbs in the vehicle. This can be
obtained from a V.A.G dealer.
For safety reasons this box should
con-
tain the following bulbs.
12 V 60/55 W- Main headlight (H 4)
12
V 4 W- Side lights and number
plate light
12
V 10 W- Taillight
12
V 2 W- Stoplight and turn signal
Headlight
To change a headlight bulb or side light
bulb the headlight must be taken out:
Turn 5 quick-release clips in upper grille
90° with a screwdriver. Pull grille forward
slightly at the top and lift it out. Then re-
move screws (see Fig.) and take headlight
out.
