To replace the daytime running light bulb in the front headlamp, you need to remove the headlamp itself. This is a very straightforward operation, as the designers have provided a lever near the headlamp for easy release.

Open the front bonnet, locate the lever positioned beside the headlamp, disengage the lever, and free the headlamp from its housing. Remove the protective cap from the bulb holder, extract the bulb to be replaced, and fit the new one (T10 fitting).

Refit the cap and the headlamp into its housing.
