BULB REPLACEMENT

NOTE:

Lens fogging can occur under certain atmo-

spheric conditions. This will usually clear as atmospheric

conditions change to allow the condensation to change

back into a vapor. Turning the lamps on will usually

accelerate the clearing process.

Park/Turn Lamp — Models with Halogen
Headlamps — If Equipped

See your authorized dealer for bulb replacement.

Low Beam Headlamp, High Beam Headlamp, and
Park/Turn Lamp — Models with High Intensity
Discharge (HID) Headlamps — If Equipped

HID Headlamps
The headlamps are a type of high voltage discharge tube.

High voltage can remain in the circuit even with the

headlamp switch off and the key removed. Because of

this, you should not attempt to service a headlamp bulb
yourself. If a headlamp bulb fails, take your vehicle to
an authorized dealer for service.

WARNING!

A transient high voltage occurs at the bulb sockets of
HID headlamps when the headlamp switch is turned
ON. It may cause serious electrical shock or electro-
cution if not serviced properly. See your authorized
dealer for service.

NOTE:

On vehicles equipped with HID headlamps,

when the headlamps are turned on, there is a blue hue to

the lamps. This diminishes and becomes more white after

approximately 10 seconds, as the system charges.
