WARNING
High-intensity-discharge (HID) bulbs
are used for the low beams of the
headlights on the Canada-spec.
2.5XT. These HID bulbs use an
extremely high voltage. To avoid
the risk of an electric shock and
resulting serious injury, you should
not attempt to replace them. Neither
should you attempt to replace the
high-beam bulbs, remove/refit the
headlight assemblies, or remove
any headlight-assembly compo-
nents. For replacement of the head-
light bulbs (low-beam and high-
beam), removal and installation of
the headlight assemblies, and re-
moval of headlight-assembly com-
ponents, contact your SUBARU
dealer.

Halogen headlight bulbs become
very hot while in use. If you touch
the bulb surface with bare hands or
greasy gloves, finger prints or
grease on the bulb surface will

the bulb to break. If there are finger
prints or grease on the bulb surface,
wipe them away with a soft cloth
moistened with alcohol.

sult your SUBARU dealer for proper
adjustment of the headlight aim.
