electrical system.

278 Vehicle Care
flasher unit will continue to operate.
Check the turn signal lamps visually
before the vehicle is used.
Bulb Wattage
{Warning
Using bulbs with a wattage other
than that specified could cause
the bulb or the wiring to become
hot. This could result in the
warping of the lens and case, and
it could also lead to the outbreak
of fire.
Bulbs are hot immediately after
they go out. When replacing the
bulbs, avoid being burned by
making sure they are fully cooled.
Never drive the vehicle with the
bulbs not working. This could
result in an accident.
You and others could be seriously
injured.When one bulb of a pair of lamps,
such as a headlamp blows out, the
other bulb is approaching the end of
its useful life. We recommend that
both be changed at the same time.
For the lamps (lighting equipment)
such as headlamps, inside of the
lens can mist up momentarily when
driving in the rain or during the car
wash. Also, the temperature
difference between inside and
outside of the lamps can sometimes
cause the water condensation
inside the lens. This is not abnormal
because this is the same
phenomenon as the windshield or
door glass fogs up when it rains.
If the mist goes away minutes after
the lamp is turned on, things are
normal.
