bulb.
4. Remove the headlamp bulb carefully. Do not shake or rotate
the bulb when removing it.

period of time. Dust, moisture, smoke, etc. entering head-
lamp body may affect the performance of the headlamp.
Remove headlamp bulb from the headlamp reflector just
before a replacement bulb is installed.
