Subaru Forester: Maintenance and service / Installation of accessories
Always consult your SUBARU dealer
before installing fog lights or any other
electrical equipment in your vehicle. Such
accessories may cause the electronic
system to malfunction if they are incorrectly
installed or if they are not suited for
the vehicle.
It may be difficult to replace the bulbs. We
recommend that you have the bulb replaced
by your SUBARU dealer if necessary.
WARNING
Bulbs may become very hot while
illuminated...
