WARNING
■Replacing light bulbs
●Turn off the lights. Do not attempt to

burns.
●Do not touch the glass portion of

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 light unit.
This may damage the lights or cause condensation to build up on the lens.
