Repair Procedures: Replacement: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Kia Niro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Turn off the headlamp switch to avoid high voltage.
CAUTION:
  • HID lamp should not be used on other cars. (This may cause fire.)
  • Fire may occur when HID lamp initially lights due to the fact that arc-discharge generates high voltage (max. 20, 000V) and high current (12 - 13A), and are different from the halogen lamp specification.
  • Install the dust cover after confirming the locking state between bulb and bulb holder.
  • When testing the HID head lamp, at all times, install a switch between the power supply and lamp before turning the power on/off. (Be extra cautious when testing as high voltage flows when HID head lamp is turned on.)
  • Do not operate the head lamp switch when the bulb is not installed as it may generate spark momentarily.
