Bulb Replacement

WARNING:
• Light bulbs can be hot enough to burn your finger right after being turned off. This is true especially for halogen headlight bulbs.

Replace the bulbs after they become cool enough.

• The headlight bulbs are filled with pressurized halogen gas. They can burst and injure you if they are hit or dropped. Handle them carefully.

CAUTION:
The oils from your skin may cause a halogen bulb to overheat and burst when the lights are on. Grasp a new bulb with a clean cloth.

CAUTION:
Frequent replacement of a bulb indicates the need for an inspection of the electrical system. This should be carried out by your SUZUKI dealer.

NOTE:
If it is difficult to replace headlight bulbs or parking light bulbs due to under-hood components trust this job to your dealer.
