Bulb Replacement/Xenon TypeNBEL0190CAUTION:
IAfter replacing a new xenon bulb, be sure to make aiming
adjustments.
IHold only the plastic base when handling the bulb. Never
touch the glass envelope.
IDo not leave headlamp reflector without bulb for a long
period of time. Dust, moisture, smoke, etc. entering head-
lamp body may affect the performance of the headlamp.
Remove headlamp bulb from the headlamp reflector just
before a replacement bulb is installed.
1. Disconnect negative battery cable.
2. Disconnect headlamp connector.
3. Remove headlamp assembly.
WARNING:
Never service a xenon headlamp without disconnecting nega-
tive battery cable and with wet hands.
