The headlamps are vented to equalize pressure. When moist air enters

the headlamp(s) through the vents, there is a possibility that

condensation can occur. This condensation is normal and will clear

within 45 minutes of headlamp operation.

Using the right bulbs

Replacement bulbs are specified in the chart below. Headlamp bulbs

must be marked with an authorized “D.O.T.” for North America to ensure

lamp performance, light brightness and pattern and safe visibility. The

correct bulbs will not damage the lamp assembly or void the lamp

assembly warranty and will provide quality bulb burn time.
