HID, High Intensity Discharge, refers to lighting technology that relies on an electrical charge to ignite xenon gas in a sealed bulb, similar to the lightning phenomenon in the sky. HID lighting does not have a filament but instead creates light by igniting an electrical discharge between two electrodes in an air tight tiny quartz capsule filled with xenon gas. HID lighting are also called Xenon lighting, referring to the gas inside the bulb.

Comparison of HID & Halogen

The Xenon HID Bulb is a High Intensity Discharge Bulb filled with a mixture of "noble" gases including Xenon. Unlike a halogen bulb, the Xenon bulbs has no filament.
The light arc is created between two electrodes. As is the case with other gas discharge bulbs, the Xenon HID bulb has an electronic starter for quick ignition and requires an electronic ballast to function properly

PRE-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
We highly advise professional installation

1. Check the headlight housings to ensure they are not damaged.
2. Make sure the vehicle does not have any pre-existing electrical problems.
3. The vehicle must have a pre-existing 12V NEGATIVE ground system.
4. Vehicles with a single fuse for both lights must have a fuse at least 30 amps.
5. If there is one fuse per headlight, each fuse must be at least 20 amps.
6. Before attaching the power adapter, identify the ballast's positive and negative wires. The positive wires are white. Negative wires are black.
7. Never touch any bulb with your bare hands. If touched accidentally, use alcohol to clean the surface.
8. Before connecting the wires and harness, you must clean all connectors, especially the AMP connector. Make sure the installation is in A DUST FREE condition. If the installation is not completely DUST FREE, and bulbs or ballast are defective after the attempted installation, they are not covered by the warranty due to installation error.
9. Once the headlights are installed, start the engine and turn on the lights. You should leave the lights on for at least five (15) minutes to ensure that the burn-in process is complete.

• Due to the occurrence of high voltage, please make sure the connections among the ballast, the igniter, and the light bulb are properly insulated and packed when installing the HID lamp.
• Do not look into the light directly when the HID is lit up to avoid visual hazards.
• Avoid contact with the light bulb while it is lit or has just been extinguished to prevent burning by its high temperature.

Please do not install the ballast, the igniter, and the connection wires close to the engine or places where water may penetrate to avoid any overheating or leakage, causing the shortening or malfunctioning of the components.

After installation and testing, make sure that the ballast and the igniter are fixed firmly in place. Depending on the space available, tie the wires in small bundles with cable ties in an orderly manner. Avoid simply knitting or bundling all of the wires together to prevent degradation.

Step by Step Installation

1. Please see back of the box for diagram schematic reference for proper installation.
2. Turn off the power of your vehicle and remove the original light bulb. Replace the fuse with the 20A fuse that comes with the package.
3. Turn on the power and confirm the position and the functionality of both polarities (positive and negative) of the power connector with a voltmeter. * If the power connector of your vehicle has been oxidized or corroded due to a long-term usage, please clean or do any necessary replacement to ensure good contact.
4. Disconnect the battery. Assemble the connection wire, the ballast (stabilizer), the igniter, and the light bulb according to the installation schematics provided. *Avoid contacting the light bulb with bare hand, place the light bulb horizontally and safely, and keep the wire of the light bulb well separate from the metallic vehicle body to avoid leakage of voltage.
5. Confirm proper connections and assembly. Turn on the power to start the light bulb with a cold ignition. Leave it lit to 10 minutes for the metal halide compound to stabilize, and then start the light bulb with hot ignition once every second to check for the lighting up procedure and for any leakage. If functioning properly, the light should be constant.
6. Turn off the power. Insert the light bulb into the headlamp housing firmly and cautiously. Avoid collisions of the bulb and the housing and insert gently. Place the sealing pad back to the original position. *Make sure that the metallic piece of the light bulb does not touch the light shield. Leaving the light bulb in contact or too close to the shield will cause severe voltage leakage and the light bulb will fail to be ignited. You may adjust the light shield forward as needed.
7. Please install the ballast in places with good heat dissipation, away from the engine and other heat sources. Fix it into place with fixture provided. The high voltage silicon wires leading from the igniter to the light bulb need to be insulated with the protective silicon host provided. The igniter should be fixed firmly in place. Make a final - round check of the connections and notes of caution.
8. Turn on the power. The lamp should light up steadily if installation is completed properly.

Problem: - In many cases, especially for those cars that have Auto "ON" or Daytime Running Lights; one or both light cannot Ignite Initially, Discharge Bulb turns off after just start the car, or even sometimes, bulb just turns off when driving.

• Damage:

Fried ballast, internally damage or burn the discharge bulb Gas Capsule.
• Solution:

You MUST Disconnect the Daytime Running Light or Auto Switch ON function immediately before the actual HID Conversion. Due to the Steady levels of battery voltage is required at 12V or Plus before the initial Ignites of each HID Systems; you must prohibit the less voltage draw of car battery at HID s start time. Daytime Running Light is 7V or less power output, and auto switch on headlight is always turn on seconds right before the car to start the ignition to charge the battery, which means Battery is focus on charging the ignition and waiting for alternator to recharge it back to 12V. Therefore, in both situations, battery is drawing much less power than 12V to initially ignite the HID headlight. Please perform the following:
• if you have Daytime Running Light please follow your car s service manual; disconnect the fuse or wiring of Daytime Running lights only.
• If you have Auto Switch On Headlights, please switch the function to Manual Switch On headlights. To avoid further damages, always remember to start your engine before turn on the HID system!

Problem: - Just Installed the HID system a few weeks ago, everything works out fine with system. But lately, the one or both Discharge Bulbs are began to flickering when starts!?

• Damage:

Fried ballast, damaged bulb, and multiple internal wiring damages.
• Solution:

Disconnect all the connectors immediately. Clean every connector with alcohol. Wait more than 5 minutes (reset ballast Safety Stages Chip) then reconnect or reinstall every connector. Then check all the connection between ballast and factory harness (Power Source); check all the connection between igniters and bulbs (yellow silicone connectors); check your upgraded fuse, they must be 20amp minimum. Remember, every connector have to be 100% well connected to each other. Do not loss mating or mis-wiring any connections.

Problem: - Melted plastic burned onto the HID bulb, staining it.

• Damage:

Potential heat spot could cause the bulb to melt, crack, or explode.
• Solution:

Do not touch the bulb at any time, especially when it is hot.

Problem: - Bubble created by melted glass from a high wattage (100W) bulb.

• Damage:

Dead bulb and potential melting of wiring harness and headlight housing.
• Solution:

Do not use any bulb higher than 80 watts bulbs in your vehicle.
