Information
HID lamps have superior perform-
ance in comparison to halogen bulbs.
HID lamps are estimated to last twice
as long as halogen bulbs, or longer, by
the manufacturer, depending on the
usage hours. HID lamps needs to be
replaced at some point within the
vehicle life. Frequent turning the
headlamps ON and OFF shortens the
HID lamps life. HID lamps do not
blow out in the same manner as halo-
gen incandescent lamps. When a
headlamp blows out after a period of
operation, the lamp light gradually
fades away after being turned ON.
Even when the lamp is turned ON by
turning ON the switch, it needs to be
replaced. The HID lamp components
are more complex than the ones of
conventional halogen bulbs. Thus, the
repairing costs are more expensive.

When a bulb is out, have the vehicle
checked by an authorized EQUUS
dealer.

- Halogen bulbs
• Halogen bulbs contain pres-
surized gas. Thus, if broken, it
produced fragments of glass.
• Always carefully handle the
bulbs to avoid scratches and
abrasions. If the bulbs are lit,
avoid contact with liquids.
• Never touch the glass with
bare hands. Any remaining oil
may cause the bulb to over-
heat and explode upon being
lit.
• When a bulb is damaged or
cracked, immediately replace
it. Then, carefully dispose of it.
• Wear eye protection while
replacing a bulb. If hot, cool
down the bulb before han-
dling it.
