Maintenance and Care s hazard flasher s turn signals s license plate lamps The alignment of your headlamps should be checked if: s oncoming motorists frequently signal you to turn off your vehicle's high beams when you do not have the high beams on s the headlamps do not seem to give you enough light to see clearly at night s the headlamp beams are not pointed slightly down and to the right Headlamp Bulb The headlamps on your vehicle use replaceable bulbs. When the lamp burns out, simply replace the bulb, rather than the whole lamp. RWARNING Handle a halogen headlamp 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 the headlamps are operated. Do not remove the burned out bulb unless you can immediately replace it with a new one. If a bulb is removed for an extended period of time, contaminants may enter the headlamp and affect its performance. 319
