Xenon headlamps
Because of the long life of these bulbs, the likelihood of failure is very low. Switching the lamps on and off frequently shortens their life.
If a xenon bulb fails, switch on the front fog lamps and continue the trip with great care. Comply with local regulations.
Do not perform work/bulb replacement on
xenon headlamps
Have any work on the xenon lighting system, including
bulb replacement, performed only by a
service center. Due to the high voltage present
in the system, there is the danger of fatal injuries
if work is carried out improperly.◀
For checking and adjusting headlamp aim, please contact your BMW center.
