Replacing headlamp bulbs
If either the low beam or high beam headlamp bulb fails, take
your vehicle to your dealer or a qualified service technician to
have it replaced.
Replacing HID headlamp bulbs
The low beam headlamps on your vehicle use a “high intensity discharge”
source. These lamps operate at a high voltage. The bulb is NOT
replaceable. When the bulb is burned out, the bulb assembly must be
replaced by your dealer or a qualified technician.
