∙ When parking, set the heater and airconditioner controls to turn off air recir-
culation to allow fresh air into the pas-
senger compartment. This should help
reduce odors inside the vehicle.

compartment will be maintained auto-
matically. Air flow distribution, fan speed
and A/C on/off are also controlled auto-
matically.
∙ A visible mist may be seen coming from the vents in hot, humid conditions as

gen) bulb. A bulb can be replaced from in-
side the engine compartment without re-

break if the glass envelope is
scratched or the bulb is dropped.
∙ When handling the bulb, do not touch the glass envelope.
∙ DO NOT TOUCH THE BULB WITH BARE HANDS.
∙ Use the same number and wattage as shown in the chart.
∙ Do not leave the bulb out of the head- light reflector for a long period of time
as dust, moisture and smoke may en-
ter the headlight body and affect the
performance of the headlight. ∙ Aiming is not necessary af ter replac-
ing the bulb. When aiming adjustment
is necessary, it is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this

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 that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for servicing.
