SERVICE PRECAUTIONS DISCHARGE HEADLIGHT
M1540100300162
Before checking the discharge headlight related
parts, be sure to read the following warnings and pre-
cautions carefully, and then perform necessary oper-
ations.
DANGER
•
Do not touch the socket and the connec-
tor while the headlights are on. High volt-
age is applied to the bulb socket and
connector during headlight operation.
The operator may be burnt or dead due to
an electric shock by high voltage.
•
Do not attempt to use a tester to check
them. If the bulb socket and connectors
should be inspected using a tester, the
operator may be burnt or dead due to an
electric shock by high voltage.
•
Do not turn ON the headlights while the
controller or the bulb is removed. If the
headlights are turned ON with the control-
ler or bulb removed, the operator may get
burned by the high temperature of the
bulb. The operator may be burnt or dead
due to an electric shock by high voltage.
•
Before service work, turn the lighting
switch OFF and disconnect the battery
terminal and the controller connector in a
dry place. Do not touch the components
with wet hands. If you work on the compo-
nents with wet hands or in wet conditions,
the operator may be burnt or dead due to
an electric shock by high voltage.
WARNING
Do not illuminate the bare headlight bulb.
(Do not illuminate the headlight using other
than the vehicle power supply.) If the head-
light bulb illuminates without fitting it in the
headlight unit, it may burst due to rise in its
internal pressure.
CAUTION
When reusing the controller with the discharge
headlight damaged, observe the inspection pro-
cedures for the related parts of the discharge
headlight before determining the reusability of
the controller. If you fail to observe "How to
check discharge headlight components," the
vehicle may be damaged.
