BU LB REPLACEMENT
General Information
Before you replace a bulb, check the contacts to
be sure they are not oxidized.
Replace the bulbs with the same type and
wattage.
After replacing a light bulb, always check the
correct orientation.
Before replacing a bulb that is not functioning,
check that the fuse is intact.
NOTE:Lens fogging can occur under certain atmospheric
conditions. This will usually clear as atmospheric
conditions change to allow the condensation to
change back into a vapor. Turning the lamps on will
usually accelerate the clearing process.
