Before replacing a bulb, be sure the light is
off. Do not touch the glass part of the new
bulb with your bare fingers; the oil from your
skin will stay on the glass and dim or destroy
the bulb when it gets hot.

Replacement of light bulbs
CAUTION
Bulbs are extremely hot immediately after
being turned off.
When replacing a bulb, wait for it to cool
sufficiently before touching it. You could
otherwise be burned.
Handle halogen light bulbs with care. The
gas inside a halogen light bulb is highly pres-
surized, so dropping, knocking, or scratching
a halogen light bulb can cause it to shatter.
Never hold a halogen light bulb with a bare
hand, dirty glove, etc.
The oil from your hand could cause the bulb
to break the next time the headlights are
used.
If the glass surface is dirty, clean it with
alcohol and let it dry completely before
installing the bulb.
Do not install commercially available LED
type bulbs.
Commercially available LED type bulbs
could adversely affect the operation of the
vehicle, such as by preventing the lights and
other vehicle equipment from operating
properly.
NOTE
If you are unsure of how to carry out the
work as required, it is recommended that
these procedures be carried out by an autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair
facility of your choice.
CAUTION
Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body
when removing a light and lens.
When it rains, or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes
becomes temporarily foggy. This is the same
phenomenon as when window glass mists up
on a humid day, and does not indicate a func-
tional problem.
When the light is switched on, the heat will
remove the fog. However, if water gathers
inside the light, please have it checked by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a
repair facility of your choice.
Bulb location and capacity
CAUTION
When replacing a bulb, be sure to use a new
bulb of the same type, wattage, and color.
If you install a different bulb, the bulb could
malfunction or fail to come on and could
lead to a vehicle fire.
