HEADLIGHTS
ReplacingThe headlight is a semi-sealed beam type which
uses a replaceable headlight (halogen) bulb. A
bulb can be replaced from inside the engine
compartment without removing the headlight
assembly.
CAUTION

High pressure halogen gas is sealed
inside the halogen bulb. The bulb
may break if the glass envelope is
scratched or the bulb is dropped.

When handling the bulb, do not touch
the glass envelope.

Do not touch the bulb.

Use the same number and wattage as
originally installed:
Bulb no. (Wattage)
H4 (60/55W) - Halogen low/high-
beam

Do not leave the bulb out of theheadlight reflector for a long period
of time as dust, moisture, and smoke
may enter the headlight body and
affect the performance of the head
light.
1. Disconnect the battery negative cable.
2. Disconnect the electrical connector from the
rear end of the bulb.
3. Pull off the rubber cap
1.
4. Push and turn the retaining pin

to loosen
it.
5. Remove the headlight bulb. Do not shake or
rotate the bulb when removing it.

HEADLIGHT AIMThe aim of the headlights may require adjust-
ment when replacing the headlight assembly or
when the vehicle’s front body has been repaired.
When the adjustment is required, follow these
procedures, or have them adjusted by a NISSAN
dealer.
Before performing the headlight aim adjustment:

Check the pressure of all tires for the correct
inflation pressure.

Check that the tools and spare tire are
stowed securely.
Check that the fuel and lubricants levels are
filled to correct capacities.

Unload all luggage and other items, which
may influence the vehicle’s height level.

Load a weight on the driver’s seat that is
equivalent to the weight of a driver.
Stopping the vehicle1. Park the vehicle on a level surface vertical to
the wall or screen to which the headlights will
be projected.
2. Move the vehicle close to the wall to deter-
mine the point P as shown in the illustration.The point P must be:
“H” is the distance between the headlight
center point to the level surface.
“W
L” is the distance between the left and
right headlight centers.
3. Mark point P on the wall or screen.
4. Back up the vehicle 5,000 mm (197.0 in,
16.4 ft) straight away from the wall or screen.
“L” is the distance between the wall or screen
to the vehicle’s front bumper.

ment to determine the necessary turn-
ing amount.

in the opposite
direction until the headlight projection be-
comes 70 mm (2.76 in) below the point P.
Once the left headlight has been adjusted,
perform right side adjustment as well.
“C” is the distance between point P and point
3.
5. Turn the upper screws

in the opposite
direction until the horizontal headlight projec-
tion’s turn point
