„ Headlight
NOTE yIf headlight aiming is required, con-
sult your SUBARU de aler for proper
adjustment of the headlight aim. y It may be difficult to replace the
bulbs. Have your SUBARU dealer re-
place the bulbs if necessary. Replace any bulb only with a new
bulb of the specified wattage. Using
a bulb of different wattage could re-
sult in a fire.
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 mois-
tened with alcohol.
