CAUTION
• Do not leave the bulb out of the head- light 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 base when handling the bulb. Never touch the glass envelope.
Touching the glass envelope could sig-
nificantly affect bulb life and/or head-
light performance.
• Aiming is not necessary after replacing the bulb. When aiming adjustment is
necessary, it is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer
for this service.
• Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of the exterior lights in the rain or
in a car wash. A temperature differ-
ence between the inside and the out-
side of the lens causes the fog. This is
not a malfunction. If large drops of
water collect inside the lens, it is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer for this service. Use the same number and wattage as originally
installed as shown in the chart.
