Before replacing a bulb check the
contacts for oxidation.
Replace blown bulbs with others of
the same type and power.
After replacing a headlight bulb,
always check its alignment.
To replace the bulb, contact your
authorized dealer.
When a light is not working, check
that the corresponding fuse is intact
before replacing the bulb. For the
location of fuses, refer to the section on
“Replacing Fuses” in this chapter.
Caution!Use the protective cover and carton for the
replacement bulb to dispose of the old bulb
promptly and out of the reach of children. Note:
When removing the lens or light unit
using a flathead screwdriver, make
sure that the flathead screwdriver does
not contact the interior terminal. If the
flathead screwdriver contacts the
terminal, a short circuit may occur.
When the weather is cold or damp
or after heavy rain or washing, the
surface of headlights or rear lights may
steam up and/or form drops of
condensation on the inside. This is a
natural phenomenon due to the
difference in temperature and humidity
between the inside and the outside of
the glass which does not indicate a
fault and does not compromise the
normal operation of lighting devices.
The mist disappears quickly when the
lights are turned on, starting from the
center of the diffuser, extending
progressively towards the edges.
