Replacing bulbs
The headlights and bulbs are difficult to access 
because of the special vehicle design.
Bulbs should therefore only be changed by an 
authorized Porsche dealer.
 Warning!
Risk of short circuit. 
f Always switch off the relevant consumer when 
changing bulbs.
Risk of injury. The headlights are under high 
voltage when installed.
f Have the bulbs changed and the headlights 
worked on by an authorized Porsche dealer. 
f Be careful during all work in the area of the 
headlights.
Risk of damage. Bulbs of a higher wattage 
can damage the lamp housing.
f Use only bulbs authorized by Porsche.
f Always carry spare bulbs with you.
In certain countries, carrying spare bulbs is 
mandatory.
f Bulbs must be clean and free from grease. 
Never touch bulbs with your bare hands. Use a 
cloth or soft paper.
 Caution!
Risk of damage to headlights due to exces-
sive temperatures and abrasion. 
f Attach no coverings (e.g. films, “stone 
guards”) in the area of the headlights. 
f Use soapy water only to clean light lenses and 
plastic headlight lenses.
In no case may chemical cleaners or other vol-
atile cleaning fluids be used. 
f To prevent scratches, do not rub with a dry or 
merely moist cloth, tissue or insect sponges.
