WARNING

Headlight bulbs get very hot. There-
fore, keep flammable products away
from a lit headlight bulb, and do not
touch the bulb until it has cooled
down.
4. Place a new headlight bulb into po-
sition, and then secure it with the
bulb holder.
CAUTION:

fected. Thoroughly clean off any dirt
and fingerprints on the headlight
bulb using a cloth moistened with al-
