Headlamp Bulb
The headlamps on your vehicle use replaceable
bulbs. When the lamp bums out, simply replace
the bulb, rather than the whole lamp./!\ WARNINGHandle a halogen headlamp bulb carefullyand keep out of children's reach. Grasp thebulb only by its plastic base and do nottouch the glass. The oil from your handcould cause the bulb to break the next timethe headlamps are operated.278Removing the headlamp bulb
Do not remove the burned-out bulb unless you can
immediately replace it with a new one. If a bulb is
removed for an extended period of time,
contaminants may enter the headlamp housing and
affect its performance.
