High Intensity Discharge Headlights (HID)
The headlights are a type of high voltage discharge tube.
High voltage can remain in the circuit even with the
headlight switch off and the key removed.Because of
this, you should not attempt to service a headlight bulb
yourself. If a headlight bulb fails, take your vehicle to
an authorized dealer for service.
WARNING!
A transient high tension occurs at the bulb sockets of
High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlights when the
headlight switch is turned ON. It may cause serious
electrical shock or electrocution if not serviced prop-
erly. See your authorized dealer for service.
NOTE:
²When the High Intensity Discharge Headlights (HID)
are turned on, there is a blue hue to the lights. This
diminishes and becomes more white after approxi-
mately 10 seconds as the system charges.
²If High Intensity Discharge (HID) lights are not work-
ing, cycle the headlight switch 4 times to see if it will
restrike.

HEADLIGHT AIMING
The headlights on your new vehicle were aimed at the
factory under a no load setting. A great increase in weight
will change the aiming of the headlights. Therefore, it
may be necessary to readjust the headlights if you
typically carry an excessive amount of weight in the rear
compartment or generally suspect misalignment. In ei-
ther case, see your authorized dealer if the headlights
require adjustment.
