Replacing Exterior Bulbs
HIGH INTENSITY DISCHARGE (HID) HEAD -
LAMPS — IF EQUIPPED
The headlamps are a type of high voltage
discharge tube. High voltage can remain in the
circuit even with the headlamp switch off and the
ignition turned to the OFF position. Because of this,
you should not attempt to service a headlamp bulb yourself. If a headlamp bulb fails, take your vehicle
to an authorized dealer for service.
NOTE:
On vehicles equipped with HID headlamps, when
t h
e headlamps are turned on, there is a blue hue
to the lights. This diminishes and becomes more
white after approximately 10 seconds, as the
system charges.
