Light bulbs
Light bulbs are installed in various parts
of the vehicle to provide lighting inside
and outside the vehicle as well as to alert
other vehicles.
Bulb replacement precaution

appropriate wattage ratings in case of
emergencies.
Refer to "Bulb wattage" on page 9-7.
When changing lamps, first turn off the
vehicle at a safe place, firmly apply the
parking brake and detach the battery's
negative (-) terminal.
Working on the lights
Prior to working on the light, firmly apply
the parking brake, ensure that turn the
ignition switch or ENGINE START/STOP
button and turn off the lights to avoid
sudden movement of the vehicle and
burning your fingers or receiving an
electric shock.
Use only bulbs of the specified wattage.

Be sure to replace the burned-out bulb
with one of the same wattage rating.
Otherwise, it may cause damage to the
fuse or electric wiring system.

used to secure them. Failure to do so
may result in heat damage, fire, or water
entering the headlamp unit. This may
damage the headlamps or cause con

are fully seated and locked.
