HEADLAMPS – FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS
Why is there condensation in the
headlamps?
• Headlamps have vents to accommodate
normal changes in air pressure.
Condensation can be a natural
by-product of this design. When moist air
enters the lamp assembly through the
vents, there is a possibility that
condensation can occur when the
temperature is cold. When normal
condensation occurs, a fine mist can form
on the interior of the lens. The fine mist
eventually clears and exits through the
vents during normal operation.
How much condensation is acceptable?
• The presence of a fine mist, for example
no streaks, drip marks or large droplets.
A fine mist covers less than 50% of the
lens.

How long may it take for the
acceptable condensation to be
cleared?
• Clearing time may take as long as 48
hours under dry weather conditions.
How much condensation is
unacceptable?
• A water puddle inside the lamp. Streaks,
drip marks or large droplets present on
the interior of the lens.
What should I do if unacceptable
condensation is present?
• Have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible.
Why do my headlamps turn off when I
have them switched on when I switch
my vehicle off?
• The battery saver turns the headlamps
off after a short period of time after you
switch your vehicle off.
