7Replacement of light bulbs
N00942900219
Before replacing a bulb, be sure the light is off. Do not touch
the glass part of the new bulb with your bare fingers; the oil
from your skin will stay on the glass and dim or destroy the
bulb when it gets hot.NOTE
If you are unsure of how to carry out the work as required,
it is recommended that these procedures be carried out by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility
of your choice.

Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body when removing
a light and lens.

When it rains, or when the vehicle has been washed, the
inside of the lens sometimes becomes temporarily foggy.
This is the same phenomenon as when window glass mists
up on a humid day, and does not indicate a functional
problem.
When the light is switched on, the heat will remove the
fog. However, if water gathers inside the light, please
have it checked by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice.

CAUTION
!

before touching it. You could otherwise be burned.

CAUTION
!
Handle halogen light bulb with care. The gas inside
a halogen light bulb is highly pressurized, so drop-
ping, knocking, or scratching a halogen light bulb
can cause it to shatter.
Never hold the halogen light bulb with a bare hand,
dirty glove, etc. The oil from your hand could cause
the bulb to break the next time the headlights are
used.
If the glass surface is dirty, clean it with alcohol and
let it dry completely before installing the bulb.
