Headlights (U.S.-spec. WRX-STi)
High-intensity-discharge (HID) bulbs are used
for the low beams of the headlights on the U.S.-
spec. WRX-STi. These HID bulbs use an ex-
tremely high voltage. To avoid the risk of an
electric shock and resulting serious injury, you
should not attempt to replace them. Neither
should you attempt to replace the high-beam
bulbs, remove/refit the headlight assemblies,
or remove any headlight-assembly compo-
nents. For replacement of the headlight bulbs
(low-beam and high-beam), removal and instal-
lation of the headlight assemblies, and removal
of headlight-assembly components, contact
your SUBARU dealer.

„Headlights (Except U.S.-spec. WRX-
STi)
Halogen headlight bulbs become very hot while
in use. If you touch the bulb surface with bare
hands or greasy gloves, finger prints or grease
on the bulb surface will develop into hot spots
and cause the bulb to break. If there are finger
prints or grease on the bulb surface, wipe them
away with a soft cloth moistened with alcohol.
NOTE yIf headlight aiming is required, consult your
SUBARU dealer for proper adjustment of the head-
light aim. y It may be difficult to replace the bulbs. Have
your SUBARU dealer replace the bulbs if neces-
sary. T
Low beam light bulbs
1. Remove the bulb cover, by turning it counterclock- wise.
