ble) to the appropriate position according to
the number of people and the load in the ve- hicle.CAUTIONl Always perform adjustments before driving.
Do not attempt to adjust while driving, as it could cause an accident.NOTEl When adjusting the beam position, first put

Replacement of lamp bulbsE01003100710
Before replacing a bulb, ensure the lamp is off. Do not touch the glass part of the new
bulb with your bare fingers; the skin oil left
on the glass will evaporate when the bulb gets hot and the vapour will condense on the
reflector and dim the surface.CAUTIONl Bulbs are extremely hot immediately after
being turned off.
When replacing a bulb, wait for it to cool sufficiently before touching it. You couldotherwise be burnt.NOTEl If you are unsure of how to carry out the
work as required, we recommend you to consult a specialist.
l Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body
when removing a lamp or lens.
l When it rains or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy. This is the same phenomenon as when window glass mists up on a humid
day, and does not indicate a functional prob- lem. When the lamp is switched on, the heat
will remove the fog. However, if water gath-
ers inside the lamp, we recommend you to have the lamp checked.Bulb capacity
E01003200085
When replacing a bulb, use a new bulb with
the same wattage and colour.
