(where fitted)
The outside rear-view mirrors will be defogged when
the defogger switch is activated.
XENON HEADLIGHTS (where fitted)
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
When xenon headlights are on, they produce
a high voltage. To prevent an electric shock,
never attempt to modify or disassemble. Al-
ways have your xenon headlights replaced at
an authorised NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop.
Xenon headlights provide considerably 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 head-
lights are not aimed correctly, immediately
take your vehicle to a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop and have the headlights ad-
justed correctly.
When the xenon headlight is initially turned on, its
brightness or colour varies slightly. However, the
colour and brightness will soon stabilise.
The life of xenon headlights will be shortened by
frequent on-off operation. It is generally desir-
able not to turn off the headlights for short inter-
vals (for example, when the vehicle stops at a
traffic signal).
If the xenon headlight bulb is close to burning
out, the brightness will drastically decrease, the
light will start blinking, or the colour of the light will become reddish. If one or more of the above
signs occur, contact a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
NISSAN recommends you to consult the local regu-
lations concerning the use of lights.
