2013 Mini Cooper Countryman, Standard TransSECTION 63 99... Follow notes on handling LED lights (high-performance LED)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 BMW 750xi, 2011 BMW 750Lxi, 2010 BMW 750xi, and 2010 BMW 750Lxi. 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 afterimages (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.
