Lights Check the operation of your car's exterior lights at least once a month. A burned out bulb can create an unsafe condition by reducing your car's visibility and the ability to signal your intentions to other drivers. Check the following: Headlights (low and high beam) Parking lights Taillights Brake lights High-mount brake light Turn signals Back-up lights Hazard light function License plate light Side marker lights Daytime running lights (Canadian cars) If you find any bulbs are burned out, replace them as soon as possible. Refer to the chart on page 215 to determine what type of replacement bulb is needed. Replacing a Headlight Bulb Your car has two bulbs on each side, four in total. Make sure you are replacing the bulb that is burned out. Your car uses halogen headlight bulbs. When replacing a bulb, handle it by its plastic case and protect the glass from contact with your skin or hard objects. If you touch the glass, clean it with denatured alcohol and a clean cloth. NOTICE Halogen headlight bulbs get very hot when lit. Oil, perspiration, or a scratch on the glass can cause the bulb to overheat and shatter. 1. Open the hood. If you need to change the high beam headlight bulb on the passenger's side, remove the radiator reserve tank by pulling it straight up. 2. To disconnect the bulb from the electrical harness, push on the end of the lock tab to release the connector then push the connector straight down. CONTINUED Maintenance
