Maintenance
Headlight (HID/LED type) bulb
replacement
If the light bulb is not operating, have the
vehicle checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
HID/LED lamps have superior per-
formance vs. halogen bulbs. HID/LED
lamps are estimated by the manufactur-
er to last twice as long or longer than
halogen bulbs depending on their fre-
quency of use. They will probably
require replacement at some point in the
life of the vehicle. Cycling the head-
lamps on and off more than typical use
will shorten HID/LED lamps life. HID/
LED lamps do not fail in the same man-
ner as halogen incandescent lamps. If a
headlamp goes out after a period of
operation but will immediately relight
when the headlamp switch is cycled it is
likely the HID/LED lamp needs to be
replaced. HID/LED lighting compo-
nents are more complex than conven-
tional halogen bulbs thus have higher
replacement cost.

WARNING -
Halogen bulbs
Halogen bulbs contain pressur-
ized gas that will produce flying
pieces of glass if broken.
Always handle them carefully,
and avoid scratches and abra-
sions. If the bulbs are lit, avoid
contact with liquids. Never touch
the glass with bare hands.
Residual oil may cause the bulb
to overheat and burst when lit. A
bulb should be operated only
when installed in a headlight.

WARNING -
HID/LED Headlight low
beam (if equipped)
Do not attempt to replace or
inspect the low beam (XENON bulb/
LED) due to electric shock danger.
If the low beam (XENON bulb/LED)
is not working, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
