Replacing headlamp bulbs 1. Make sure that the headlamp control is in the OFF position.
2. Open the hood.
3. Reach over the front bolster.
4. Remove the bulb by turning it counterclockwise and then
pulling it straight out.
WARNING: Handling Halogen Bulbs: When a halogen bulb
breaks, it is dangerous. These bulbs contain pressurized gas. If
one is broken, it will explode and serious injuries could be
caused by the flying glass. If the glass portion of the bulb is
touched with bare hands, body oil could cause the bulb to
overheat and explode when lit. Never touch the glass portion of
the bulb with your bare hands and always wear eye protection
when handling or working around halogen bulbs. 5. Disconnect the electrical connector from the bulb.
WARNING: Children and
Halogen Bulbs: Playing with a
halogen bulb is dangerous.
Serious injuries could be
caused by dropping a halogen
bulb or breaking in some other
way. Always keep halogen
bulbs out of the reach of
children.
6. Connect the electrical connector on the new bulb.
7. Insert the glass end of the new bulb into the headlamp assembly. When the grooves in the plastic base are aligned, turn the new bulb
clockwise to install.
