How to replace the headlight bulb on the Smart?

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Light bulb

To replace the headlight bulb on the Smart, open the bonnet to access the engine compartment. Once the bonnet is open, remove the protective cap located at the back of the headlight to disconnect the connector attached to the bulb. The bulb can now be extracted from its housing and replaced with a new spare part. The new bulb should then be connected to its connector and inserted back into the designated housing. After replacement, reinstall the protective cap.
