„Headlight
Halogen headlight bulbs become very hot while
in use. If you touch the bulb surface with bare
hands or greasy gloves, finger prints or grease
on the bulb surface will develop into hot spots
and cause the bulb to break. If there are finger
prints or grease on the bulb surface, wipe them
away with a soft cloth moistened with alcohol.
NOTE
If headlight aiming is required, consult your
SUBARU dealer for proper adjustment of the head-
light aim. T

Front turn signal light, parking light
and side marker light
The headlight assembly must be removed before the
front turn signal light and parking light bulbs can be re-
placed. When the headlight assembly has been re-
moved and then reinstalled, it may become necessary
to make a headlight aiming adjustment. After a bulb
has been replaced, it is recommended that the head-
light aiming adjustment be made at a SUBARU dealer.
1. Remove the headlight assembly mounting screws
located at the top of and the front of the headlight as-
sembly using a phillips screwdriver or an open-end
wrench.
