Replacement of lamp bulbs

4. Insert a new fuse of the same capacity
by using the fuse puller into the same
place in the fuse block.
CAUTION
l If the newly inserted fuse blows again after a
short time, we recommend you to have the
11
electrical system checked to find the cause
and rectify it.
l Never use a fuse with a larger capacity than
specified or a substitute (such as a cable or
foil). Doing so could cause the circuit wires
to overheat and create a fire.

Before replacing a bulb, ensure the lamp is
off. Do not touch the glass part of the new
bulb with your bare fingers; the skin oil left
on the glass will evaporate when the bulb
gets hot and the vapour will condense on the
reflector and dim the surface.
CAUTION
l Do not install commercially available LED-
type bulbs.
Commercially available LED-type bulbs
could adversely affect the operation of the
vehicle, such as by preventing the lamps and
other vehicle equipment from operating
properly.
l Bulbs are extremely hot immediately after
being turned off.
When replacing a bulb, wait for it to cool
sufficiently before touching it. You could
otherwise be burnt.
l
Handle halogen lamp bulbs with care. The
gas inside a halogen lamp bulbs is highly
pressurized, so dropping, knocking, or
scratching a halogen lamp bulb can cause it
to shatter.

CAUTION
l Never hold the halogen lamp bulb with a
bare hand, dirty glove, etc.
The oil from your hand could cause the bulb
to break the next time the headlamps are op-
erated.
If the glass surface is dirty, it must be
cleaned with alcohol, paint thinner, etc., and
refit it after drying thoroughly.
NOTE
l
If you are unsure of how to carry out the
work as required, we recommend you to
consult a specialist.
l Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body
when removing a lamp or lens.
