WARNING
■Replacing light bulbs
●Turn off the lights. Do not

hot and may cause burns.
●Do not touch the glass portion
of the light 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. Fail-
ure to do so may result in heat
damage, fire, or water entering
the light unit. This may damage
the lights or cause condensa-
tion to build up on the lens.
■When changing the back-up
lights
●Stop the engine and wait until
the exhaust pi pes and sur-
rounding parts have cooled
down sufficiently. The lights are
located near the exhaust pipe
and touching a hot exhaust pipe
and surrounding parts can
cause burns.
■To prevent damage or fire
●Make sure bulbs are fully
seated and locked.
●Check the wattage of the bulb
before installing to prevent heat
damage.
