LIGHT BULBS

WARNING
- Working on
the lights
Prior to working on the light, firmly
apply the parking brake, ensure
that the engine start/stop button is
turned to the LOCK position and
turn off the lights to avoid sudden
movement of the vehicle and burn-
ing your fingers or receiving an
electric shock.
Use only bulbs of the specified wattage.
CAUTION
Be sure to replace the burned-out
bulb with one of the same wattage
rating. Otherwise, it may cause
damage to the fuse or electric
wiring system.

WARNING
When you replace the bulb of front-
light, be careful the HPCU system,
high voltage cable (orange color)
and high voltage components for
hybrid.
It is very dangerous because the
HPCU has the high voltage. Always
pay strongly attention to your
hands. If not, it may result in the
electric shock or burns.
CAUTION
If you don't have necessary tools,
the correct bulbs and the expertise,
consult an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer. In many cases, it is difficult
to replace vehicle light bulbs
because other parts of the vehicle
must be removed before you can
get to the bulb. This is especially
true if you have to remove the head-
light assembly to get to the bulb(s).
Removing/installing the headlight
assembly can result in damage to
the vehicle.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
After heavy, driving rain or washing,
headlight and taillight lenses could
appear frosty. This condition is caused by
the temperature difference between the
lamp inside and outside. This is similar
to the condensation on your windows
inside your vehicle during the rain and
doesn't indicate a problem with your
vehicle. If the water leaks into the lamp
bulb circuitry, have the vehicle checked
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
