My head light bulb needs replacement. I have the bulb, but don't know the
procedure to change the bulb. The user manual doesn't give any information.
So I am hoping I can get some help here? Thanks

According to Haynes (paraphrased where appropriate):

Note - handle the new bulb with cloths only. If you touch the bulb with your
fingers clean the oils off with rubbing alcohol.

Open the hood. If removing the right-side bulb, remove the battery and
coolant reservoir. Reach behind the headlight assembly, grasp the bulb
retaining collar, turn it counter-clockwise, then pull out the bulb/holder
assembly. (The bulb/holder assembly is shown as a right angle holder, maybe
an inch in diameter, bent at a right angle and the wires coming out the
bottom. The collar is perhaps 3 inches diameter and looks pretty flat
against the body.) The bulb is removed by pulling straight out. Installation
is the reverse of removal.
