vehicles with discharge headlamps) E00517500465
The angle of the headlamp beam varies depending
on the load carried by the vehicle.
The
headlamp levelling switch can be used to ad-
just the headlamp illumination distance (when the
lower beam is illuminated) so that the headlamps’
glare does not distract other drivers.
Set the switch according to the following table. CAUTION

Replacement of lamp bulbs
E01003100488
Before
replacing a bulb, ensure the lamp is off. Do
not touch the glass part of the new bulb with your
bare fingers; the skin oil left on the glass will evap-
orate when the bulb gets hot and the vapour will
condense on the reflector and dim the surface. CAUTION
l
Bulbs
are extremely hot immediately af-
ter being turned off.
When replacing a bulb, wait for it to cool
sufficiently before touching it. You could
otherwise be burnt.
NOTE l If

you are unsure of how to carry out the
work as required, we recommend you to con-
sult a specialist.
l Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body
when removing a lamp or lens.
l When it rains or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy. This is the same phenomenon
as when window glass mists up on a humid
day, and does not indicate a functional prob-
lem.
When the lamp is switched on, the heat will
remove the fog. However, if water gathers in-
side the lamp, we recommend you to have
the lamp checked.

l Always
consult a specialist when repair-

ty discharge headlamps.
This is because the power circuit, bulbs
and electrodes generate a high voltage
that could cause an electric shock.

LED, not a bulb, is used in the side turn-
signal lamp (on outside rear-view mirror).
Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point when there is a need for re-

l
Handle
halogen lamp bulbs with care.
The gas inside halogen lamp bulbs is high-
ly pressurized, so dropping, knocking, or
scratching a halogen lamp bulb can cause
it to shatter.
l Never hold the halogen lamp bulb with a
bare hand, dirty glove, etc.
The oil from your hand could cause the
bulb to break the next time the head-
lamps are operated.
If the glass surface is dirty, it must be
cleaned with alcohol, paint thinner, etc.,
and refit it after drying it thoroughly. Headlamps (low beam, for vehicles
with high intensity discharge head-
lamps)

Do not attempt to disassemble or repair headlamps,
and do not attempt to replace their bulbs. WARNING
l A high voltage is present in the power cir-
cuit
and in the bulbs and bulb terminals.
To avoid the risk of an electric shock, con-
tact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point whenever repair or re-
placement is necessary.
