■ To prevent injury
Before performing any light bulb
replacement procedure, be sure
to turn the engine switch off. Fail-
ure 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 unavoidable
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. Fail-
ure to do so may result in heat
damage, fire, or water entering
the light unit. This may damage
the lights or cause condensa-
tion to build up on the lens.
■ To prevent damage or fire
● Make sure bulbs are fully
seated and locked.
● Check the wattage of the bulb
before installing to prevent heat
damage.
