1. Prepare for Installation: Before installation, turn off the vehicle power completely and remove the key from the ignition to prevent any circuit shorting.

5. Test Illumination: Power on the vehicle (or the relevant circuit) to verify proper illumination of the new LED bulb.
6. Troubleshooting (If Bulb Fails to Light): If the bulb does not light up, remove it, reverse its insertion direction (swap polarity), and reinsert it. Ensure it is securely seated.
7. Reinstall Cover: Once confirmed working, reinstall the instrument panel cover or any other components removed during the process.

5. Operating Instructions

• Secure Fit: The compact lamp body must be securely locked in place with no wobble after installation to prevent it from falling into the instrument panel.
