REPLACEMENT OF LIGHT BULBS
G260A01CM-DAT Before attempting to replace a bulb, be
sure the switch is turned to the "OFF" position.
The next paragraph shows how to
reach the light bulbs so they may bechanged. Be sure to replace the burned-out bulb with one of the same number and wattage rating.
All bulbs are available from your Hyundai
dealers Parts Department.
CAUTION:
o Keep the lamps out of contact with petroleum products, such asoil, petrol, etc.
o After heavy, driving rain or wash- ing, headlight and taillight lensescould appear frosty. This condi- tion is caused by the temperaturedifference between the lamp in- side and outside. This is similar to the condensation on your win-dows inside your vehicle during the rain and doesn’t indicate a problem with your vehicle. If thewater leaks into the lamp bulb circuitry, have the vehicle checked by an authorised Hyundai dealer.
