Replacing lamps (Mitsubishi Lancer 9)

When replacing a bulb, make sure the ignition and all lights are off. Use only bulbs with the rated power specified in the table.

Attention:

• New halogen bulbs require special handling due to the increased pressure inside. They may rupture or break if scratched or dropped.
• Hold the lamp only by its plastic or metal body. Do not touch the glass part of the lamp with bare hands, dirty gloves, etc. If the glass surface of the lamp is dirty, it must be cleaned with alcohol, dried thoroughly, and only then installed.

Table. Fuses in the passenger compartment block.

- Installing a lamp with a power higher than the rated power will damage the diffuser.
