HEADLIGHTS
Replacing the xenon headlight bulb
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
When xenon headlights are on, they
produce a high voltage. To prevent an
electric shock, never attempt to modify
or disassemble. Always have your xe-
non headlights replaced at an autho-
rized NISSAN dealer. For additional in-
formation, see ``Headlight and turn
signal switch'' in the ``Instruments and
controls'' section.
Replacing the halogen headlight
bulb
The headlight is a semi-sealed beam type
which uses a replaceable halogen bulb.
Because the headlight assembly must be
removed from the vehicle for bulb replace-
ment, see your NISSAN Dealer.
CAUTION
cDo not leave the headlight assembly
open without a bulb installed for a
long period of time. Dust, moisture,
smoke, etc. entering the headlight
body may affect bulb performance.
Remove the bulb from the headlight
assembly just before a replacement
bulb is installed.
cOnly touch the plastic base when
handling the bulb. Never touch the
glass envelope. Touching the glass
could significantly affect bulb life
and/or headlight performance.
cHigh pressure halogen gas is sealed
inside the halogen bulb. The bulb
may break if the glass envelope is
scratched or the bulb is dropped.
cUse the same number and wattage
as originally installed:
Low Beam High Beam
Wattage 55 60
Bulb no. H1 HB (9005)cAiming is not necessary after replac-
ing the bulb. When aiming adjust-
ment is necessary, contact an autho-
rized NISSAN dealer.
