- Remove the lens by prying the edge of
the lens with a flat-head screwdriver.

Other information:
The LED headlights produce more light
than conventional halogen headlights.
When the vehicle is carrying a heavy load
and the headlight beams are angled
upwards, the driver of an oncoming vehicle
may experience glare.
To prevent this, the automatic headlight
beam leveler adjusts the headlights to the
optimum height automatically depending
on the load the vehicle is carrying...
NOTE
The rear gate will remain unlocked
even after closing it. Always lock the
rear gate when leaving the vehicle.
If you cannot open/close the rear
gate by performing the operation described
here, a short electronic chirp
will sound three times (beep, beep,
beep)...
