1998 NISSAN PATROL air

Bulb Replacement
The headlamp is a semi-sealed beam type which uses a replace-
able halogen bulb. The bulb can be replaced from the engine com-
partment side without removing the headlamp body.
+Grasp only the plastic base when handling the bulb. Never
touch the glass envelope.
1. Disconnect the battery cable.
2. Turn the bulb retaining ring counterclockwise until it is free from
the headlamp re¯ector, and then remove it.
3. Disconnect the harness connector from the back side of the
bulb.
4. Remove the headlamp bulb carefully. Do not shake or rotate
the bulb when removing it.
5. Install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Do not leave headlamp re¯ector without bulb for a long period
of time. Dust, moisture, smoke, etc. entering headlamp body
may affect the performance of the headlamp. Remove head-
lamp bulb from the headlamp re¯ector just before a replace-
ment bulb is installed.
Aiming Adjustment
When performing headlamp aiming adjustment, use an aiming
machine, aiming wall screen or headlamp tester. Aimers should be
in good repair, calibrated and operated in accordance with respec-
tive operation manuals.
If any aimer is not available, aiming adjustment can be done as
follows:
For details, refer to the regulations in your own country.
a. Keep all tires in¯ated to correct pressures.
b. Place vehicle and tester on one and same ¯at surface.
c. See that there is no-load in vehicle (coolant, engine oil
®lled up to correct level and full fuel tank) other than the
driver (or equivalent weight placed in driver's position).
CAUTION:
Be sure aiming switch is set to ``0'' when performing aiming
adjustment on vehicles equipped with headlamp aiming con-
trol.

System Description
This unit displays the following items:
+Earth magnetism and heading direction of vehicle.
+Outside air temperature.
+Caution for frozen road surfaces.
OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE DISPLAY
Push the switch when the ignition key is in the ``ACC'' or ``ON'' position. The outside temperature will be dis-
played in ``ÉF''.
+Selecting the indication range
Push the switch to change from ``ÉF'' to ``ÉC''.
+When the outside temperature drops below freezing point, ICE is displayed on the unit.
+When the outside temperature is between 55ÉC (130ÉF) and 70ÉC (158ÉF), the display shows 55ÉC
(130ÉF).
+When the outside temperature is lower than þ30ÉC (þ20ÉF) or higher than 70ÉC (158ÉF), the display shows
only ``- - -'' though it is operating. This is not a problem.
+The indicated temperature on the thermometer is not readily affected by engine heat. It changes only when
one of the following conditions is present.
a) The temperature detected by the ambient air temperature sensor is lower than the indicated temperature
on the thermometer.
b) The difference in temperature detected during a period of 40 seconds is less than 1ÉC (1.8ÉF) when vehicle
speed has been greater than 24 km/h (15 MPH) for more than 100 seconds.
(This is to prevent the indicated temperature from being affected by engine heat or cooling fan operation
during low-speed driving.)
c) The ignition key has been turned to the ``OFF'' position for more than 4 hours. (The engine is cold.)
DIRECTION DISPLAY
Push the switch when the ignition key is in the ``ACC'' or ``ON'' position. The direction will be displayed.
