The headlight is a semi-sealed beam type which
uses a replaceable headlight (halogen) bulb.
They can be replaced from inside the engine
compartment without removing the headlight as-
sembly.

side the bulb. The bulb may break if the
glass envelope is scratched or the bulb
is dropped. ●

replacing the bulb. When aiming adjust-
ment is necessary, contact a NISSAN
dealer.
● Do not leave the headlight assembly
open without a bulb installed for a long
period of time. Dust, moisture, smoke,
etc. entering the headlight body may
affect bulb performance. Remove the
bulb from the headlight assembly just
before a replacement bulb is installed.
● Only touch the base when handling the
bulb. Never touch the glass envelope.
Touching the glass could significantly
affect bulb life and/or headlight
performance.
● Use the same number and wattage as
shown in the chart.
1. Disconnect the battery negative cable.
2. Disconnect the electrical connector from the rear end of the bulb.
3. Rotate the retaining pin counterclockwise to loosen it.
4. Remove the headlight bulb. Do not shake or rotate the bulb when removing it.

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, contact a NISSAN dealer.

Replacing the fog light bulb
If replacement is required, see your NISSAN
dealer.

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 and wattage as
originally installed as shown in the
chart. ●
Do not leave the bulb out of the fog light
for a long period of time as dust, mois-
ture and smoke may enter the fog light
body and affect the performance of the
fog light.
