Open the bonnet and remove the protective cap of the bulb holder by turning it anti-clockwise; then disconnect the bulb's power connector and the retaining spring. Pull out the old bulb and insert the new one, taking care not to touch the glass with your fingers.

Seat it properly in its holder and secure it by reattaching the retaining spring; then reconnect the power connector and replace the protective cap. Switch on the headlights and check their proper functioning: if you notice a difference in colour or brightness compared to the other headlamp, replace that one too.

This value is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tyres are inflated, turn on the instrument cluster to check that the warning light has completely disappeared from the display. If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
