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 develop into hot spots,
causing 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.
