Bulb Ratings
The chart below shows the wattage rating of some of the exterior lamps. In order for the bulb monitoring circuits to function correctly, the proper wattage ratings must be considered. The chart should only be used for reference. The proper rating can be found in technical data Group 63.
The Low beam Xenon headlight systems are not cold monitored, however current can be measured when switched on to allow for Hot monitoring to be functional.
