BULB REPLACEMENT
General Information
•Before you replace a bulb check the contacts to be sure
they are not oxidized.
•Replace the bulbs with the same type and wattage.
•After replacing a light bulb always check the correct
orientation.
•Before replacing a bulb that is not functioning check
that the fuse is intact.
NOTE:Lens fogging can occur under certain atmo-
spheric conditions. This will usually clear as atmospheric
conditions change to allow the condensation to change
back into a vapor. Turning the lamps on will usually
accelerate the clearing process.
