REPLACEMENT OF LIGHT
BULBS!
G260A01MC-AATBefore attempting to replace a light bulb,
be sure the switch is turned to the "OFF"
position.
The next paragraph shows how to reach
the light bulbs so they may be changed.
Be sure to replace the burned-out bulb
with one of the same number and watt-
age rating.
See page 6-29 for the wattage descrip-
tions.
CAUTION:
o Keep the lamps out of contact with
petroleum products, such as oil,
gasoline, etc.
o If you don't have necessary tools,
the correct bulbs and the expertise,

G270A02MC-GATHeadlight, Front Turn Signal Light
and Front Fog Light
CAUTION:
o The headlight aiming should be
checked by an authorized Hyundai
dealer after replacing the headlight
bulbs.
o After heavy, driving rain or washing,
headlight and taillight lenses could
appear frosty. This condition is
caused by the temperature differ-
ence between the lamp inside and
outside. This is similar to the con-
densation on your windows inside
your vehicle during the rain and
doesn’t indicate a problem with your
vehicle. If the water leaks into the
lamp bulb circuitry, have the vehicle
checked by an authorized Hyundai
dealer.
