ing slightly slower than normal.
●When the screen is viewed through polarized sunglasses, a rainbow pattern may
appear on the screen due to optical characteristics of the screen. If this is disturb-

CAUTION
■Replacing light bulbs
●Turn off the lights. Do not attempt to replace the bulb immediately after turning
off the lights.
The bulbs become very hot and may cause burns.
●Do not touch the glass portion of the light bulb with bare hands. Hold the bulb by
the plastic or metal portion.
If the bulb is scratched or dropped, it may blow out or crack.
●Fully install light bulbs and any parts used to secure them. Failure to do so may
result in heat damage, fire, or water entering the headlight unit. This may damage
the headlights or cause condensation to build up on the lens.
●While the headlights are turned on, and for
a short time after they have been turned off,
metal components at the rear of the head-
light assembly will be extremely hot. To pre-
vent burns, do not touch these metal
components until you are certain they have
cooled down.
