Maintenance and care • hazard flasher The overview of your vehicle's exterior lamps shows the tail lamp/ backup lamp assembly for the sedan model only. The lamp assembly for the wagon is similar, although the bulb replacement process differs. For more information, see Tail lamps/ Backup lamps in this section. In addition, the headlamp assembly includes the headlamp and the turn signal/parking lamp assemblies Do not remove lamp bulbs unless they may be replaced immediately with new ones. If a bulb is removed for an extended period of time, contaminants may enter the lamp housings and affect performance. Handle a halogen bulb carefully and keep out of children's reach. Grasp the bulb only by its plastic base and do not touch the glass; the oil from your hand could cause the bulb to break the next time that the headlamps are operated. 161
