WARNING
To prevent injury
Before performing any light bulb replacement procedure, be sure to turn the engine
switch off. Failure to do so may result in burns from hot components or a part of your
body may get caught on an operating component, possibly causing serious injury.
Replacing light bulbs
Turn off the lights. Do not attempt to replace the bulb immediately after turning off the
lights.
The bulbs become very hot and may cause burns.
Do not touch the glass portion of the light bulb with bare hands. When it is unavoid-
able to hold the glass portion, use and hold with a clean dry cloth to avoid getting
moisture and oils on the bulb.
Also, if the bulb is scratched or dropped, it may blow out or crack.
Fully install light bulbs and any parts used to secure them. Failure to do so may result
in heat damage, fire, or water entering the headlight unit. This may damage the head-
lights or cause condensation to build up on the lens.
Do not attempt to repair or disassemble the light bulbs, connectors, electric circuits
or component parts.
Doing so may result in death or serious injury due to electric shock.
To prevent damage or fire
Make sure bulbs are fully seated and locked.
