If the bulb is scratched or dropped it may blow out or crack.

l Fully install light bulbs and any parts used to secure them. Failing to do so may result in heat damage, fire, or water entering the headlight unit. This may damage the headlights or cause condensation to build up on the lens.

l While the low beam headlights are turned on, and for a short time after they have been turned off, metal com- ponents at the rear of the headlight assembly will be extremely hot.

To prevent burns, do not touch these metal components until you are certain they have cooled down.

CAUTION

An extremely high voltage of 30000 V will be discharged and could result in serious injury or death by electric shock.

l Do not attempt to take apart or repair the low beam discharge headlight bulbs, connectors, power supply circuits, or related components.

Doing so could result in electric shock and serious injury or death.

- To prevent damage or fire
Make sure bulbs are fully seated and locked.
