WARNING:
- The Xenon headlamp has a high-tension current generating area. Be extremely careful when removing and installing. Be certain to disconnect the battery negative cable prior to removing or installing.
- When the xenon headlamp is lit, do not touch the harness (covered with red or amber insulation), bulb itself or the bulb socket with your bare hands.
- Never service a xenon headlamp with wet hands.
- When checking body side harness with a circuit tester, be certain to disconnect the harness connector from the xenon headlamp.
- When the xenon headlamp is lit, the xenon bulb must be installed in the headlamp housing. (Never turn or xenon headlamp, if the bulb is out of the headlamp housing.)
