2016 NISSAN QASHQAI AIR CON

HEADLIGHTS
LED headlight (where fitted)
The LED headlight is a projector style which uses a
LED module without serviceable parts.
CAUTION
•To prevent an electric shock, never attempt to
modify or disassemble the LED headlights as-
sembly.
•If replacement is required, contact a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop.
Replacing the halogen headlight bulb
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.
•Use the same number type and wattage as
originally installed.
•Aiming is usually not necessary after replac-
ing the bulb. When aiming adjustment is nec-
essary, contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop.
•Do not leave the bulb out of the headlight
reflector for a long period of time as dust,moisture or smoke may enter the headlight
body and affect the performance of the head-
light.
The headlight is a semi-sealed beam type which
uses a replaceable headlight (halogen) bulb. A bulb
can be replaced from inside the engine compart-
ment without removing the headlight assembly.
Contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop, if
you need assistance for bulb replacement.
High beam bulb replacement:
1. Open the bonnet. For details, see “Bonnet
release” in the “3. Pre-driving checks and
adjustments” section.
2. Disconnect the negative (—) battery cable.
3. When the broken bulb is located in the headlight
assembly under the air duct, carefully remove the
air duct, see “Air duct removal” earlier in this
section.
4. Remove the connector from the back of the cover
assembly
j1.
5. Turn the cover assembly 1/4 of a turn in the anti
clockwise direction and remove the cover by dis-
connecting the internal connector
j2.
6. Push and turn the retaining pin to loosen it
j3.
7. Remove the headlight bulb. Do not shake or ro-
tate the bulb when removing it.
8. Install the new bulb in the reverse order of re-
moval.9. Re-install the covers internal connector on the
back of the bulb.
10. Re-install the cover by turning the cover assem-
bly 1/4 of a turn in the clockwise direction.
11. Re-install the connector on the back of the cover
assembly.
12. Where removed (step 3.), re-install the air duct,
bolt and clips in the reverse order of removal.
13. Reconnect the negative (—) battery cable and
close the bonnet.
Low beam bulb replacement:
1. Open the bonnet. For details, see “Bonnet
release” in the “3. Pre-driving checks and
adjustments” section.
2. Disconnect the negative (—) battery cable.
3. When the broken bulb is located in the headlight
assembly under the air duct, carefully remove the
air duct, see “Air duct removal” earlier in this
section.
4. Remove the connector from the back of the bulb
assembly
j4.
5. Turn the bulb assembly 1/8 of a turn in the anti
clockwise direction and remove the headlight
bulb
j5.
6. Install the new bulb in the headlight body by turn-
ing it clockwise until it is securely sealed within
the headlight body.
7. Re-install the connector on the back of the bulb
assembly.

8. Where removed (step 3.), re-install the air duct,
bolt and clips in the reverse order of removal.
9. Reconnect the negative (—) battery cable and
close the bonnet.
NOTE
Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of the
exterior lights in the rain or in a car wash. The fog
is caused by a temperature difference between
the inside and the outside of the lens. This is not
a malfunction. If large droplets can be seen, then
contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.EXTERIOR LIGHTS

WARNING
•After rotating the tyres, adjust the tyre pres-
sure and perform a TPMS temperature cali-
bration.
•Retighten the wheel nuts when the vehicle
has been driven for the first 1,000 km (600
miles) (also in cases of a flat tyre, etc.).
•Do not include the temporary-use spare tyre
in the tyre rotation.
•Incorrect tyre selection, fitting, care or main-
tenance can affect vehicle safety with risk of
accident and injury. If in doubt, consult a
NISSAN dealer or the tyre manufacturer.
TYRE WEAR AND DAMAGE
Tyres should be periodically inspected for wear,
cracking, bulging or objects caught in the tread. If
excessive wear, cracks, bulging or deep cuts are
found, the tyre should be replaced.The original tyres have a built-in tread wear indica-
tor
j1 . When the wear indicator is visible, the tyre
should be replaced.
The wear indicator locations are indicated by the
location marks
j2.
TYRE AGE
Remember tyre age. Never use a tyre over six years
old, regardless of whether they have been used or
not.
Tyres degrade with age as well as the use they are
subjected to. Have the tyres checked and balanced
frequently by a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop. Report all accidents where the tyre is knocked
even if it is minor.
CHANGING TYRES AND WHEELS
WARNING
Do not install a deformed wheel or tyre even if it
has been repaired. Such wheels or tyres could
have structural damage and could fail without
warning.
When replacing a tyre, use the same size, speed
rating and load carrying capacity as originally
equipped. Recommended types and sizes are men-
tioned in “Wheels and Tyres” in the “9. Technical
information” section.
The use of tyres other than those recommended or
the mixed use of tyres of different brands, construc-
tion (bias, bias-belted or radial), or tread patterns
can adversely affect the ride, braking, handling,ground clearance, body-to-tyre clearance, snow
chain clearance, speedometer calibration, headlight
aim and bumper height.
WARNING
Some of these effects may lead to accidents and
could result in serious personal injury.
If the wheels are changed for any reason, always
replace with wheels which have the same offset
dimension. Wheels of a different offset could cause
early tyre wear, possibly degraded vehicle handling
characteristics and/or interference with the brake
discs. Such interference can lead to decreased
braking efficiency and/or early brake pad wear.
FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE (4WD) MODELS
CAUTION
•Always use tyres of the same size, brand, con-
struction (bias, bias-belted or radial), and
tread pattern on all four wheels. Failure to do
so may result in a circumference difference
between tyres on the front and rear axles
which will cause excessive tyre wear and may
damage the transmission, transfer case and
differential gears.
•ONLY use spare tyres specified for the four
wheel drive (4WD) models.SDI1663Z
Maintenance and do-it-yourself8-35

WHEEL BALANCE
Unbalanced wheels may affect vehicle handling and
tyre life. Even with regular use, wheels can get out
of balance. Therefore, they should be balanced as
required.
Wheel balance service should be performed with
the wheels off the vehicle. Spin balancing the front
wheels on the vehicle could lead to transmission
damage.
SPARE TYRE
The temporary-use spare wheel/tyre can be identi-
fied by the temporary-use spare tyre label which
contrasts to the standard road wheels. If in doubt,
contact a NISSAN dealer, qualified workshop or
see “Spare tyre” in the “6. In case of emergency”
section.
Emergency tyre puncture repair kit
(where fitted)
The emergency tyre puncture repair kit is supplied
to the vehicle instead of a spare tyre. The repair kit
must be used for temporarily fixing a minor tyre
puncture. After using the repair kit, see a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop as soon as possible for
tyre inspection and repair/replacement.
CAUTION
Do not use the emergency tyre puncture repair
kit under the following conditions. Contact a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop or profes-
sional road assistance.
•when the sealant has passed its expiration
date (shown on the label attached to the seal-
ant bottle)
•when the cut or the puncture is approximately
4 mm (0.16 in) or longer
•when the side of the tyre is damaged
•when the vehicle has been driven with a con-
siderable loss of air from the tyre
•when the tyre is completely displaced inside
or outside the rim
•when the tyre rim is damaged
•when two or more tyres are flat
See “Spare tyre” in the “6. In case of emergency”
section for more details.
CARE OF WHEELS
For details, see “Care of wheels” in the “7. Appear-
ance and care” section.
