Before replacing the right-hand low- or
high-beam light bulb, remove the bolts
and remove the air intake duct.
CAUTION
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, con-
sult your SUBARU dealer for proper
adjustment of the headlight aim.. It may be difficult to replace the
bulbs. Have your SUBARU dealer re-
place the bulbs if necessary. Maintenance and service
