• In winter season, be sure to remove snow or ice on the nozzle holder at
the front bumper before operating
head light washer. • To avoid the frozen damage to the nozzle of the head light washer, be sure to use the specific washer fluid.
Bulb Replacement
A WARNING
• Light bulbs can be hot enough to burn your finger right after being
turned off. This is true especially for halogen headlight bulbs.
Replace the bulbs after they
become cool enough. • The headlight bulbs are filled with pressurized halogen gas. They can
burst and injure you if they are hit or dropped. Handle them carefully.
CAUTION
The oils from your skin may cause a halogen bulb to overheat and burst when the lights are on. Grasp a new bulb with a clean cloth.
CAUTION
Frequent replacement of a bulb indi­cates the need for an inspection of the electrical system. This should be
carried out by your SUZUKI dealer.
