Caution
When removing or installing the rear light, take care not to cause
any damage.
• Removing the rear light in particular can lead to the paintwork or
rear light becoming damaged. This is another reason why we
recommend having the bulbs changed by a qualified workshop.
• NEVER use metal tools (e.g. a screwdriver) or sharp or pointed
plastic tools to lever out the rear light - risk of damaging the paint.
