WARNING:
HIGH VOLTAGE
. When xenon headlights areon,they produce
a high voltage. To prevent anelectric shock,
never attempt tomodify ordisassemble.
Always haveyourxenon headlights checked
and/or replaced ataNISSAN dealer.
. Xenon headlights provideconsiderably
more lightthanconventional headlights.If
they arenot correctly aimed,theymight
temporarily blindanoncoming driverora

The ABS includes electronic sensors,electricpumps,

a built-in diagnostic featurethattests thesystem each
time youstart theengine andmove thevehicle atalow
speed inforward orreverse. Whentheself-test
occurs, youmay hear aªclunkº noiseand/or feela

malfunction, itswitches theABS offand illuminates the
ABS warning lightonthe instrument panel.Thebrake
system thenoperates normally,but without anti-lock
assistance.
If the ABS warning lightilluminates duringtheself-test
or while driving, havethevehicle checked bya

GUID-731 7FE84-7D F1-491B-AE 03-A1D3516 5D3DC
The ABS operates atspeeds above5to 10 km/h (3to
6 MPH) .The speed variesaccording toroad condi-
tions.
When theABS senses thatoneormore wheels are
close tolocking up,the actuator rapidlyapplies and
releases hydraulic pressure. Thisaction issimilar to
pumping thebrakes veryquickly .You may feela
pulsation inthe brake pedalandhear anoise from
under thehood orfeel avibration fromtheactuator
when itis operating. Thisisnormal andindicates that
the ABS isoperating properly.However, thepulsation
may indicate thatroad conditions arehazardous and
