Light Bulbs
Consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer to replace most vehicle light bulbs. It is difficult
to replace vehicle light bulbs because other parts of the vehicle must be removed before
you can get to the bulb. This is especially true for removing the headlight assembly to get
to the bulb(s).
Removing/installing the headlight assembly may result in damage to the vehicle.
WARNING
• Prior to replacing a light bulb, depress the brake pedal, shift to P (Park), apply the
parking brake, press the Engine Start/Stop button to the OFF position and take the key
with you when leaving the vehicle to avoid sudden movement of the vehicle and to
prevent possible electric shock.
• Be aware the bulbs may be hot and may burn your fingers.
NOTICE
Be sure to replace the burned-out bulb with one of the same wattage to prevent damage
to the fuse or electrical wiring system.
NOTICE
To prevent damage, do not clean the headlight lens with chemical solvents or strong
detergents.
Information
This vehicle is equipped with desiccant to reduce fogging inside the headlight due to
moisture. The desiccant is consumable and its performance may change based on the
used period or environment. If fogging inside the headlight due to moisture continues for
a long time, consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
The headlight and tail light lenses could appear to have condensation inside if the vehicle
is washed after driving or if the vehicle is driven in wet weather. This condition is caused
by a higher temperature inside the light and a cooler outside temperature. Moisture that
condenses in the light is removed after driving with the light on. If the moisture is not
removed, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
