63 99... Follow notes on handling LED lights (high-performance LED)

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 18 other vehicles, including the 2017 BMW 550i GT xDrive, 2017 BMW 535i GT xDrive, 2017 BMW 535i GT, 2016 BMW 550i GT xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i GT xDrive. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: All LEDs with visible light have a certain secondary risk potential due to their dazzling effect: 
If possible, do not look directly into the LED radiation without eye protection - and above all not for extended periods. 
After looking into bright LED sources, temporary visual impairment and after-images (not a sign of eye damage) may occur, leading to irritations, annoyance, visual impairment or even accidents.
Especially looking direct and intentionally into "white" and "blue" LEDs from close proximity can lead to retinal damage after only a short period.
If dazzling effects persist or in case of other complaints, consult a eye specialist. 
IMPORTANT: To avoid short circuits, disconnect LED lamps from the power supply before replacing them (lighting system and ignition off).
