The overview of your vehicle’s
exterior lamps shows the tail lamp/
backup lamp assembly for the
sedan model only. The lamp
assembly for the wagon is similar,
although the bulb replacement
process differs. For more
information, see Tail lamps/
Backup lamps in this section. In
addition, the headlamp assembly
includes the headlamp and the
turn signal/parking lamp
assemblies
Do not remove lamp bulbs unless
they may be replaced immediately
with new ones. If a bulb is
removed for an extended period of
time, contaminants may enter the
lamp housings and affect
performance.
Handle a halogen bulb
carefully and keep out of
children’s reach. Grasp the bulb
only by its plastic base and do
not touch the glass; the oil from
your hand could cause the bulb
to break the next time that the
headlamps are operated.
