Replacing light bulbs ●
Turn off the headlights. Do not attempt to replace the bulb immediately after
turning off the headlights.
The bulbs become very hot and may cause burns. ●
Do not touch the glass portion of the li ght bulb with bare hands. When it is
unavoidable to hold the glass portion, use and hold with a clean dry cloth to avoid
getting moisture and oils on the bulb.
Also, if the bulb is scratched or dropped, it may blow out or crack. ●
Fully install light bulbs and any parts used to secure them. Failing to do so may
result in heat damage, fire, or water en tering the headlight unit. This may damage
the headlights or cause condensation to build up on the lens. ●
While the low beam headlights are turned
on, and for a short time after they have
been turned off, metal components at the
rear of the headlight assembly will be
extremely hot.
To prevent burns, do not touch these metal
components until you are certain they have
cooled down.Metal components
