COCKPIT

Battery saver system
A chime will sound when the driver side door is
opened with the light switch in theorposition and the ignition switch in the OFF or
LOCK position.
When the headlight switch is in the
orposition while the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the lights will automatically turn off after
a period of time when the ignition switch has
been pushed to the OFF position.
When the headlight switch remains in the
orposition after the lights automatically turn
off, the lights will turn on when the ignition
switch is pushed to the ON position.
CAUTION
. When you turn on the headlight
switch again after the lights auto-
matically turn off, the lights will not
turn off automatically. Be sure to
turn the light switch to the OFF
position when you leave the vehicle
for extended periods of time, other-
wise the battery will be discharged.
. Never leave the light switch on
when the engine is not running for
extended periods of time even if the headlights turn off automatically.

Headlight aiming control
Depending on the number of occupants in the
vehicle and the load it is carrying, the headlight
axis may be higher than desired. If the vehicle is
traveling on a hilly road, the headlights may
directly hit the rearview mirror of the vehicle
ahead or the windshield of the oncoming
vehicle. The light axis can be lowered with the
operation of the switch.
The larger the number designated on the switch,
the lower the axis.
When traveling with no heavy load or on a flat
road, select position 0.
Instruments and controls2-39

5-30Starting and driving
after road repairs. (The LDW and
LDP systems could detect these
items as lane markers.)
— On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling di- rection does not align with the
lane marker.
— When traveling close to the vehicle in front of you, which
obstructs the lane camera unit
detection range.
— When rain, snow or dirt adheres to the windshield in front of the
lane camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or
if the aiming is not adjusted
properly.
— When strong light enters the lane camera unit. (For example,
the light directly shines on the
front of the vehicle at sunrise or
sunset.)
— When a sudden change in brightness occurs. (For example,
when the vehicle enters or exits a tunnel or under a bridge.)
. Excessive noise will interfere with
the warning chime sound, and the
chime may not be heard.

5-48Starting and driving
.The radar sensors may not be able
to detect and activate BSI when
certain objects are present such as:
— Pedestrians, bicycles, animals.
— Vehicles such as motorcycles,
low height vehicles, or high
ground clearance vehicles.
— Vehicles remaining in the detec- tion zone when you accelerate
from a stop.
— Oncoming vehicles.
— A vehicle merging into an adja- cent lane at a speed approxi-
mately the same as your vehicle.
— A vehicle approaching rapidly from behind.
— A vehicle which your vehicle overtakes rapidly.
— A vehicle that passes through the detection zone quickly.
. The radar sensor’s detection zone is
designed based on a standard lane
width. When driving in a wider lane,
the radar sensors may not detect
vehicles in an adjacent lane. When
driving in a narrow lane, the radar sensors may detect vehicles driving
two lanes away.
. The radar sensors are designed to
ignore most stationary objects,
however objects such as guardrails,
walls, foliage and parked vehicles
may occasionally be detected. This
is a normal operation condition.
. The camera may not detect lane
markers in the following situations
and the BSI system may not operate
properly.
— On roads where there are multi-
ple parallel lane markers; lane
markers that are faded or not
painted clearly; yellow painted
lane markers; non-standard lane
markers; lane markers covered
with water, dirt, snow, etc.
— On roads where discontinued lane markers are still detect-
able.
— On roads where there are sharp curves.
— On roads where there are shar- ply contrasting objects, such as
shadows, snow, water, wheel
ruts, seams or lines remaining after road repairs.
— On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling di- rection does not align with the
lane markers.
— When traveling close to the vehicle in front of you, which
obstructs the lane camera unit
detection range.
— When rain, snow or dirt adheres to the windshield in front of a
lane camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or
if aiming is not adjusted prop-
erly.
— When strong light enters a lane camera unit. (For example: light
directly shines on the front of
the vehicle at sunrise or sunset.)
— When a sudden change in brightness occurs. (For example:
when the vehicle enters or exits
a tunnel or under a bridge.)

HEADLIGHTS
Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of the
exterior lights in the rain or in a car wash. A
temperature difference between the inside and
the outside of the lens causes the fog. This is
not a malfunction. If large drops of water collect
inside the lens, it is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
Replacing
LED headlight:
If replacement is required, it is recommended
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
Halogen headlight bulb:
The headlight (high-beam) is a semi-sealed
beam type which uses a replaceable headlight
(halogen) bulb.
CAUTION
.Do not leave the bulb out of the
headlight reflector for a long period
of time. Dust, moisture, smoke, etc.
entering the headlight body may
affect bulb performance.
. 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.
. Only touch the plastic base when
handling the bulb. Never touch the
glass envelope.
. Aiming is not necessary after repla-
cing the bulb. When aiming adjust-
ment is necessary, it is
recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
Use the same number and wattage as originally
installed as shown in the chart.

The high-beam headlight can be replaced from
inside the engine compartment without remov-
ing the headlight assembly.
