REPLACEMENT OF LIGHT BULBS
If the vehicle has had front body repair
and the headlight assembly has been
replaced, an headlight aiming should be
checked using an aiming screen as
shown in the illustration. Turn on the
headlight switch. (Low Beam Position)
1. Adjust headlights so that main axis of
light is parallel to center line of the
body and is aligned with point "P"
shown in the illustration.
2. Dotted lines in the illustration show the
center of headlights.
SPECIFICATIONS:

CAUTION
• Keep the lamps out of contact
with petroleum products, such as
oil, gasoline, etc.
• After heavy, driving rain or wash-
ing, headlight and taillight lenses
could appear frosty. This condi-
tion is caused by the temperature
difference between the lamp
inside and outside. This is similar
to the condensation on your win-
dows inside your vehicle during
the rain and doesn’t indicate a
problem with your vehicle. If the
water leaks into the lamp bulb cir-
cuitry, we recommend that the
system be checked by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
