XENON HEADLIGHTS
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
. When xenon headlights are on,
they produce a high voltage. To
prevent an electric shock, never
attempt to modify or disassem-
ble. Always have your xenon
headlights replaced by a certified
service technician.
. Xenon headlights provide consid-
erably more light than conven-
tional headlights. If they are not
correctly aimed, they might tem-
porarily blind an oncoming driver
or the driver ahead of you and
cause a serious accident. If head-
lights are not aimed correctly, it is
recommended you immediately
take your vehicle to a NISSAN
dealer and have the headlights
adjusted correctly.
When the xenon headlight is initially
turned on, its brightness or color varies
slightly. However, the color and bright-
ness will soon stabilize. .
The life of xenon headlights will be
shortened by frequent on-off opera-
tion. It is generally desirable not to
turn off the headlights for short
intervals (for example, when the
vehicle stops at a traffic signal).
. If the xenon headlight bulb is close
to burning out, the brightness will
drastically decrease, the light will
start blinking, or the color of the
light will become reddish. If one or
more of the above signs appear, it is
recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer.
