XENON HEADLIGHTSGUID-B40150F6-DD79-4915-B6F1-208ABCF3DCF8
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 xenon
headlights replaced at an INFINITI retai-
ler.
. 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 headlights
are not aimed correctly, immediately
take your vehicle to an INFINITI retailer
and have the headlights adjusted cor-
rectly.
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 head-
lights is not reduced.
. If the xenon headlight bulb is close to
burning out, the brightness will dras-
tically decrease, the light will start
blinking, or the color of the light will
become reddish. If one or more of the
above signs appear, contact an INFINITI
retailer.

people could result in serious injury.
CAUTION
. Do not place objects in front of the
intake inlet located behind the front seat. Doing so could cause improper
operation or interruption of the opera-
tion.
. The battery could run down if the climate
controlled seat is operated while the
engine is not running.
. Do not use the climate controlled seat
for extended periods or when no one is
using the seat.
. Do not put anything on the seat which
insulates heat, such as a blanket,
cushion, seat cover, etc. Otherwise, the
seat may become overheated.
. Do not place anything hard or heavy on
the seat or pierce it with a pin or similar
object. This may result in damage to the
climate controlled seat.
. Any liquid spilled on the seat should be
removed immediately with a dry cloth.
. The climate controlled seat has air
filters. Do not operate the climate con-
trolled seat without the air filters. This
may result in damage to the system.
. When cleaning the seat, never use
gasoline, thinner, or any similar materi-
als. .
