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
