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.

Low Beam And High Beam Headlamp

High Intensity Discharge Headlamps (HID) — If
Equipped
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 ignition turned to the OFF

position. 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 lights. This diminishes and becomes more white after

approximately 10 seconds, as the system charges.
