Your Mazda’s headlights have replaceable
halogen bulbs.
w Replacing a Headlight Bulb
1.
2.
Make sure the headlight switch is off.
Lift the hood and find the high and low
beam bulbs in the rear of the headlight
body.
WARNING
Handling Halogen Bulbs:
The outboard bulb is the LOW beam,
and the inboard one is the HIGH beam.
When a halogen bulb breaks, it is
dangerous. These bulbs contain
pressurized gas. If one is broken, it
will explode and serious injuries
could be caused by the flying glass.
If the glass portion is touched with
bare hands, body oil could cause the
bulb to overheat and explode when lit.
Never touch the glass portion of the
bulb with your bare hands and always
wear eye protection when handling or
working around halogen bulbs.
3.
4.
Turn the socket and bulb assembly
counterclockwise and remove it while
holding the rubber socket cover in
place. Carefully remove the headlight
bulb from its socket in the reflector by
gently pulling it straight backward out
of the socket.
Disconnect the bulb from the electrical
connector by pressing the tab on the
connector with your finger and pulling
the bulb upward.

Children and Halogen Bulbs:
Playing with a halogen bulb is
dangerous. Serious injuries could be
caused by dropping a halogen bulb or
breaking it some other way.
Always keep halogen bulbs out of the
reach of children.

Automotive readers have rated 2003 Mazda MX 5 Miata Owners Manual 1.0 out of 1.0 based on 1 product reviews. No matter what I do this will not download. I have followed all instructions and even the instructions for override because Windows states this software has undesirable problems ( but it makes the same claim for all Mazda Manuals I've found on the net) Now I am also unablre to review pages of the manual. I'm being stopped at the cover. I need access to this manual. Please help.
