the high intensity zone on a vertical line, straight
ahead of the light center and with the top edge
of the beam 2 inches below the level of the light
center at a distance of 25 feet from the lens.

the negative (-) terminal of the vehicle
battery prior to bulb replacement.

2. Disconnect the White bulb wire from the
double female "Y" connector of the 6 ft. White
extension wire or from the single female
