Headlight Lamp Replacement - Polaris 500 Owner's Manual For Maintenance And Safety

Lights
When servicing a halogen lamp, don't touch the lamp with bare fingers.
Oil from your skin leaves a residue, causing a hot spot that will shorten
the life of the lamp.
Poor lighting while driving can result in severe injury or death. Headlight and
taillight lenses become dirty during normal operation. Wash the headlights
frequently to maintain lighting quality.
Hot components can cause serious burns to skin. Do not service the
headlamps until they've cooled sufficiently.
