Maintenance -> Light bulbs for Your Hyundai Tucson SUV Third Generation (2016-2019)

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 headlamp  
assembly to get to the bulb(s).

bulb with one of the same wattage The low beam light distribution is

asymmetric part will dazzle oncoming  
car driver. To prevent dazzle, ECE reg-  
ulation demand several technical solu-  
tions (ex. automatic change system,  
adhesive sheet, down aiming). These  
headlamps are designed not to dazzle  
opposite drivers. So, you need not  
change your headlamps in a country  
with opposite traffic direction.  
i
Information  
Removing/installing the headlamp  
assembly can result in damage to  
the vehicle.  
After heavy driving, rain or washing,  
headlamp and tail lamp lenses could  
appear frosty. This condition is caused  
by the temperature difference between  
the lamp inside and outside. This is  
similar to the condensation on your  
windows inside your vehicle during the  
rain and doesn’t indicate a problem  
with your vehicle. If the water leaks  
into the lamp bulb circuitry, we rec-  
ommend that the system be checked  
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.  
WARNING  
Prior to working on the light,  
firmly apply the parking brake,  
ensure that the ignition switch is  
in the LOCK/OFF position and  
turn off the lights to avoid sud-  
den movement of the vehicle and  
burning your fingers or receiving  
an electric shock.
