Maintenance
Light Bulbs
Consult an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products to replace most vehicle
light bulbs. 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 for
removing the headlight assembly to get
to the bulb(s).
Removing/installing the headlight
assembly can result in damage to the
vehicle.
• Prior to working on a light, depress the
foot brake, shift to P (Park), apply the
parking brake, press the Engine
Start/Stop button to the OFF position
and take the key with you when leaving
the vehicle to avoid sudden movement
of the vehicle and to prevent possible
electric shock.
• Be aware the bulbs may be hot and may
burn your fingers.
Be sure to replace the burned-out bulb
with one of the same wattage to prevent
damage to the fuse or electrical wiring
system.
To prevent damage, do not clean the
headlight lens with chemical solvents or
strong detergents.
Headlight desiccant (if equipped)
This vehicle is equipped with desiccant to
reduce fogging inside the headlight due
to moisture. The desiccant is consumable
and its performance may change based
on the used period or environment. If
fogging inside the headlight due to
moisture continues for a long time,
consult an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.
The headlight and tail light lenses could
appear frosty if the vehicle is washed after
driving or the vehicle is driven at night in
wet weather. This condition is caused by
temperature difference between the light
inside and outside and, it does not
indicate a problem with your vehicle.
When moisture condenses in the light, it
will be removed after driving with the
headlight on. The removable level may
differ depending on light size, light
position and environmental condition.
However, if moisture is not removed,
have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized retailer of Genesis Branded
products.
