Headlights (models without HID headlights)

~1min read
Halogen headlight bulbs become very hot while in use. If you touch the bulb surface with bare hands or greasy gloves, fingerprints or grease on the bulb surface will develop into hot spots, causing the bulb to break. If there are finger prints or grease on the bulb surface, wipe them away with a soft cloth moistened with alcohol.

• It may be difficult to replace the bulbs. Have the bulbs replaced by your SUBARU dealer if necessary.
