Lighting System -- Precaution



1.PRECAUTION FOR HEADLIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT
  1. If even a thin film of oil is left on the surface of a halogen light, its service life will be shortened because the light will operate at a higher temperature.

  2. Handle each halogen light with care. Dropping, hitting or damaging the bulb in any way may result in it exploding and shattering because of the high internal pressure.

  3. Always prepare a new bulb for immediate replacement. While replacing the bulb, the lens may attract dust and moisture if removed from the vehicle for too long.

  4. Always use a bulb of the same wattage for replacement.

  5. Securely reinstall the socket after bulb replacement. The lens may become cloudy or the light cavity may fill with water through gaps around the socket if it is not installed correctly.
