Precautions For Xenon Headlamp ServiceINFOID:0000000006225830
WARNING:
Comply with the follow ing warnings to prevent any serious accident.
 Disconnect the battery cable (neg ative terminal) or the power supply fuse before installing, remov-
ing, or touching the xenon headlamp (bulb included). The xenon headlamp contains high-voltage
generated parts.
 Never work with wet hands.
 Check the xenon headlamp ON-OFF status after assem bling it to the vehicle. Never turn the xenon
headlamp ON in other conditions. Connect th e power supply to the vehicle-side connector.
(Turning it ON outside the lamp case m ay cause fire or visual impairments.)
 Never touch the bulb glass immediately afte r turning it OFF. It is extremely hot.
CAUTION:
Comply with the follow ing cautions to prevent an y error and malfunction.
 Install the xenon bulb securely. (I nsufficient bulb socket installation may melt the bulb, the connec-
tor, the housing, etc. by high-vol tage leakage or corona discharge.)
 Never perform HID circuit inspection with a tester.
 Never touch the xenon bulb glass with ha nds. Never put oil and grease on it.
 Dispose of the used xenon bulb after p acking it in thick vinyl without breaking it.
 Never wipe out dirt and cont amination with organic solven t (thinner, gasoline, etc.).
WorkINFOID:0000000006225831
 After removing and installing the opening/closing parts, be sure to carry out fitting adjustments to check their
operational.
 Check the lubrication level, damage, and wear of each part. If necessary, grease or replace it.
