1. Bulb Elements Xenon gas: Xenon gas activates the initial reaction for rapid illuminating. Molybdenum electrode: anode arcing Metal halide salts: color composing component Lightening principle When Xenon gas and metal halide salt will discharge the molybdenum anode in a capsule, it emits light.
2. Ignitor Ignitor (A) is an electromagnetic transformer that receives current from ballast and boost voltage to light on the arc light source in any environment.
3. Ballast Ballast (A) delivers an instant high voltage pulse to the ignitor electrode, to initialize discharge in the source. Ballast supplies the stable power to the bulb and the ignitor during initialization and normal state of arc.
4. Stability Durable for vibration as there is no filament. Does not operate if polarity are changed. Doesn't operate if the input voltage is not in the range of 10-16V. Doesn't operate if the circuit is short. Doesn't operate if the bulb burnt out.

Scheme 7

1. Check-points upon head lamp failure (HID) Check the battery voltage. (Low beam will be on when the battery voltage above 9V.) Check the fuse and relay. Check the polarity of ballast. (If the polarity are changed, low beam doesn't lighten) Check the bulb connector securely. Visually bulb checking (no filament): damaged glass, damaged for upper parts and lower parts of glass tube. After (1)~(5), replace the ballast and the ignitor. (ballast assembly).
2. Service procedure and warning (HID) No. Item Service procedures Warning Remarks 1 Replacement of lamp assembly Disconnect the power connector from the lamp. Remove and replace the lamp assembly. Connect the power connector after removing the front bumper cover. Disconnect the head lamp power connector to avoid high voltage. Other description is the same as the halogen bulbs. 2 Replacement of the Bulb Disconnect the power connector from the lamp. (head lamp, turn signal, head lamp leveling device) Remove the lamp assembly. Remove the ballast and dust cover. Remove the bulb socket and replace the bulb. Installation is the reverse of removal. Disconnect the head lamp power connector to avoid high voltage. Be careful not to damage the bulb and use genuine bulbs only. Do not apply excessive force and fit it correctly. 3 Replacement of the Ballast (with built-in ignitor) Disconnect the power connector from the lamp. Remove the lamp and then the ballast and the dust cover. Remove the head lamp leveling device and then the bulb socket. Connect the bulb socket on the replacement ballast and install the leveling device. Installation is the reverse of removal. Disconnect the head lamp power connector to avoid high voltage. Replace the ballast only and install the used lamp. Replace the sub assembly except the ballast. 4 Others Power supply should be according to the rated capacity. Use the rated fuse and wire. Bulb socket shall be free from moisture or dirt. Do not apply the ballast severe shock, water, or extreme All parts should be serviced only at specified service centers. HID lamp should not be installed on other cars (Dangerous, fire may occur.) CAUTION: HID lamp shall not be used on other cars. (Fire may occur.) Fire may occur when HID lamp initially lights due to the fact that arc-discharge generates high voltage (max. 30, 000V) and high current (12- 13A), and are different from the halogen lamp specification.

Characteristic

1. Durable for vibration as there is no filament.
2. HID lamp had a more long life than halogen lamp.
3. Does not operate if polarity is changed.
4. Operating input voltage: 9-16V

Removal

Note. The headlamp bulb should not be removed from the headlamp assembly until just before a new bulb is installed. Removing bulb for an extended period of time may affect headlamp bulb performance. Contaminants may enter the headlamp assembly where they can settle on the lens and reflector. Never turn on the head lamps with the bulb removed from the headlamp assembly.

5. Installation is the reverse of removal. NOTE: Turn the head lamp switch off to avoid high voltage. CAUTION: HID lamp shall not be used on other cars. (Fire may occur.) Fire may occur when HID lamp initially lights due to the fact that arc-discharge generates high voltage (max. 20, 000V) and high current (12-13A), and are different from the halogen lamp specification. Install the dust cover after confirming the locking state between bulb and bulb holder. When testing the HID head lamp, turn the power on or off with switch between power supply and lamp because of high voltage. Do not operate the head lamp switch with the bulb not installed, because it generates spark momently.

Head Lamp Aiming Instructions

The head lamps should be aimed with the proper beam-setting equipment, and in accordance with the equipment manufacturer's instructions.

Note. If there are any regulations pertinent to the aiming of head lamps in the area where the vehicle is to be used, adjust so as to meet those requirements.

Alternately turn the adjusting gear to adjust the head lamp aiming. If beam-setting equipment is not available, proceed as follows

Scheme 16

1. Inflate the tires to the specified pressure and remove any loads from the vehicle except the driver, spare tire, and tools.
