NORMAL OPERATING CONDITION
NORMAL OPERATING CONDITION
DescriptionINFOID:0000000005146687
XENON HEADLAMPS
The brightness and color of the light may vary slightly immediately after turning the headlamp ON. This condi-
tionwill remain until the xenon bulb becomes stable. This is normal.
• Illumination time lag may occur between right and left. This is normal.
