4. If the vehicle changes zone, repeat steps 1
thru 3. See map.

If the compass deviates from the correct
indication soon after repeated adjustment,
have the compass checked at an authorized
dealer.

The compass may not indicate the correct
compass point in tunnels or while driving up
or down a steep hill.
(The compass returns to the correct com-
pass point when the vehicle moves to an area
where the geomagnetism is stabilized.)
CAUTION

Do not install a ski rack, antenna,
etc., which are attached to the vehicle
by means of a magnet. They affect
the operation of the compass.

When cleaning the mirror, use a pa-
per towel or similar material damp-
ened with glass cleaner. Do not spray
glass cleaner directly on the mirror as
it may cause the liquid cleaner to
enter the mirror housing.2-8

XENON HEADLIGHTS (if so
equipped)
WARNINGHIGH 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 xenon headlights replaced at a
NISSAN dealer.

Xenon headlights provide consider-
ably more light than conventional
headlights. If they are not correctly
aimed, they might temporarily blind
an oncoming driver or the driver
ahead of you and cause a serious
accident. If headlights are not aimed
correctly, immediately take your ve-
hicle to a NISSAN dealer and have
the headlights adjusted correctly.
When the xenon headlight is initially turned on,
its brightness or color varies slightly. However,
the color and brightness will soon stabilize.
The life of xenon headlights will be
shortened by frequent on-off operation.
It is generally desirable not to turn off
the headlights for short intervals (for
example, when the vehicle stops at a
traffic signal). Even when the daytime
running lights are active (Canada only),
the xenon headlights do not turn on.
This way the life of the xenon headlights
is not reduced.

If the xenon headlight bulb is close to
burning out, the brightness will drasti-
cally decrease, the light will start blink-
ing, or the color of the light will become
reddish. If one or more of the above
signs appear, contact a NISSAN dealer.

Battery saver system
When the headlight switch is in the
or
position while the ignition switch is in
the ON position, the lights will automatically
turn off 5 minutes after the ignition switch has
been turned to the OFF position.

When the headlight switch remains in theor
position after the lights auto-
matically turn off, the lights will turn on for 5
minutes when the headlight switch is turned
to the OFF position and then turned to the
or
position.CAUTION
Even though the battery saver feature
automatically turns off the headlights
after a period of time, you should turn
the headlight switch to the OFF position
when the engine is not running to avoid
discharging the vehicle battery.
Headlight aiming control (if so
equipped)Depending on the number of occupants in the
vehicle and the load it is carrying, the headlight
axis may be higher than desired. If the vehicle is
traveling on a hilly road, the headlights may
directly hit the rearview mirror of the vehicle
ahead or the windshield of the oncoming vehicle.
The light axis can be lowered with the operation
of the switch.
The larger the number designated on the switch,
the lower the axis.When traveling with no heavy load or on a flat
road, select position 0.
WARNING
Xenon headlights are extremely bright
compared to conventional headlights. If
the xenon headlights hit the rearview
mirror of the vehicle ahead or the wind-
shield of oncoming vehicle, the driver of
these vehicles may have difficulty driv-
ing because of the brightness. Use the
headlight aiming control switch to lower
the light axis. See “Xenon headlights”
earlier in this section for additional in-
formation.DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYSTEM
(CANADA ONLY)The daytime running lights automatically illumi-
nate when the engine is started with parking
brake released. The daytime running lights op-
erate with the headlight switch in the OFF
position or in the

The daytime running lights may come on after
turning the switch to the OFF position and
