HEADLIGHT AND SIDELIGHT
Light unit removal
To replace either headlight or sidelight bulb,
remove the light unit as follows:
Disengage the three retaining clips and rotate
them approximately 10 degrees (see inset) to
align with the slots. The light unit can now be
released forward.
NOTE:
Vehicles fitted with headlight levelling
(as illustration, above) have two retaining clips
only (the bottom of the light unit is mounted
on the headlight height adjustment operating
rod). Remove the lamp by gently pulling it off
the ball socket of the operating rod.Headlight bulb:
Disconnect the electrical multi-plug and
remove the rubber cover. Release the spring
clip and withdraw the bulb. Replace the bulb
ensuring that the larger tab is pointing
towards the top of the headlight.
Replace the rubber cover, ensuring the slit in
the cover is at the top of the headlight, and
pressing the centre firmly to seal around the
electrical contacts of the bulb.
NOTE:
Do not touch the bulb glass with your
fingers. If necessary, clean the bulb with
methylated spirits.

Replacing the headlight unit
Replacement is a reversal of the above
procedure. However if headlight levelling is
fitted, it is necessary to carefully align the
lower fixing position to the height adjustment
operating lever before fitting the retaining
clips.
Once the retaining clips are secure, firmly
push the bottom of the headlight unit towards
the rear of the vehicle to fully engage the
height adjustment operating lever, a firm
clunk will be felt when engagement is
correct.Sidelight bulb:
With the light unit removed (see previous
page), disconnect the electrical multi plug and
disengage the bulb holder by twisting a
quarter turn anti-clockwise. Withdraw the bulb
holder to replace the bulb.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION

							Cleaning & vehicle care
142 WASHING YOUR VEHICLE
Wash your vehicle frequently using a sponge
and generous quantities of cold or lukewarm
water containing a car shampoo. Rinse and
dry off with a chamois leather.
·
Do not use hot water!
·
Do not use detergent soap products or
washing-up liquid!
During winter months when salt has been
used on the roads, use a hose to wash the
underside of the vehicle. Pay particular
attention to wheelarches and panel seams,
and to removing accumulations of mud.
Similarly, after off-road driving or wading in
muddy or salt water conditions, use a hose to
wash underbody components and other
exposed parts of the vehicle.
When using a hose, do not direct the jet into
the heater air intake ducts, or through the
wheel trim apertures onto the brake
components, or at the door, window or
sunroof seals, where water pressure could
penetrate the seals.
WARNING
Some high pressure cleaning systems are
sufficiently powerful to penetrate door and
window seals and damage rubbing strips
and locking mechanisms. Never aim the
water jet directly at heater air intakes, body
and sunroof seals, or at any components
that might easily be damaged.Steam cleaning
Before steam cleaning the engine
compartment, cover the power steering
reservoir to prevent contamination of fluid.
After steam cleaning carefully re-wax the
metallic components, especially the steering
column, engine water pipes, hose clips and
the ignition coil clamp, to prevent corrosion.
Getting rid of tar spots
Use white spirit to remove tar spots and
stubborn grease stains from paintwork. Then
wash immediately with soapy water to remove
all traces of spirit.
Body protection
After washing, inspect the paintwork for
damage. Treat paint chips and scratches with
touch-up paint to prevent corrosion, and
occasionally protect the paint surface with an
application of car polish.
NOTE:
DO NOT apply car polish to the
bumper mouldings - polish will become
ingrained in the textured finished.
Glass and mirrors
Clean the rear window with a soft cloth to
avoid damaging the heating elements. DO
NOT scrape the glass or use an abrasive
cleaning fluid.
Mirror glass is particularly susceptible to
damage - DO NOT use abrasive cleaning
compounds or metal scrapers. 
						

							Cleaning & vehicle care
143 LOOKING AFTER THE INTERIOR
·
Clean plastic-faced or cloth covered
surfaces with diluted upholstery cleaner.
·
Leather seats, steering wheel and trim
features should be cleaned with a damp
cloth moistened with undiluted upholstery
cleaner. Leave for five minutes, and then
repeat the operation using a clean cloth
and water - but avoid flooding the area!
Dry and polish the leather with a dry,
lint-free cloth.
·
DO NOT use petrol, detergents, furniture
creams or polishes!
·
Sweep carpets with a brush or vacuum
cleaner and clean with diluted nylon
upholstery cleaner.
Clock and radio
·
Clean with a dry cloth only! DO NOT use
cleaning fluids or sprays.
Seat belts
·
Extend belts, then use warm water and a
non-detergent soap to clean. Allow to dry
naturally, and do not retract until
completely dry.Airbag
To prevent airbag SRS damage, the steering
wheel centre pad and area of the fascia panel
containing the passenger side airbag should
ONLY be cleaned sparingly with a damp cloth
and upholstery cleaner.
DO NOT allow these areas to be flooded with
liquid, and DO NOT use petrol, detergent,
furniture cream or polishes.
