Headlamp (Low, HID type)
If the light bulb does not operate, have
the vehicle checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
If your vehicle is equipped with High
Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps,
these headlamps contain mercury. So if
you need to have your vehicle disposed,
you should remove the HID Headlamps
before disposal. The removed HID head-
lamps should be recycled, re-used or dis-
posed as hazardous waste.
Information
HID lamps have superior performance vs.
halogen bulbs.
HID lamps are estimated by the manufac-
turer to last twice as long or longer than
halogen bulbs depending on their frequen-
cy of use. They will probably require
replacement at some point in the life of the
vehicle. Cycling the headlamps on and off
more than typical use will shorten HID
lamps life. HID lamps do not fail in the
same manner as halogen incandescent
lamps. If a headlamp goes out after a peri-
od of operation but will immediately
relight when the headlamp switch is cycled
it is likely the HID lamp needs to be
replaced. HID lighting components are
more complex than conventional halogen
bulbs thus have higher replacement cost.

Handle halogen bulbs with care.
Halogen bulbs contain pressur-
ized gas that will produce flying
pieces of glass that could cause
injuries if broken.
Wear eye protection when chang-
ing a bulb. Allow the bulb to cool
down before handling it.
