SIC2275
Headlight aiming control (if so
equipped)
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 wind-
shield 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 aflat road, select position 0.
WARNING
Xenon headlights are extremely bright
compared to conventional headlights. If
the xenon headlights hit the rearview mirror
of the vehicle ahead or the windshield of
oncoming vehicle, the driver of these
vehicles may have difficulty driving because
of the brightness. Use the headlight aiming
control switch to lower the light axis. See
“Xenon headlights”
earlier in this section
for additional information.
Daytime running light system (Ca-
nada only)
The daytime running lights automatically
illuminate when the engine is started with
the parking brake released. The daytime
running lights operate with the headlight
switch in the OFF position or in the
position. Turn the headlight switch to theposition for full illumination when
driving at night.
If the parking brake is applied before the
engine is started, the daytime running
lights do not illuminate. The daytime running lights illuminate once the parking
brake is released. The daytime running
lights will remain on until the ignition
switch is pushed to the OFF position.
WARNING
When the daytime running light system is
active, tail lights on your vehicle are not on.
It is necessary at dusk to turn on your
headlights. Failure to do so could cause an
accident injuring yourself and others.
Adaptive Front lighting System
(AFS) (if so equipped)
The Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS)
will automatically adjust the headlights
(low beam) toward the turning direction to
improve the driver’s view. When the head-
light switch is ON and the driver operates
the steering wheel in a turn, the AFS
system will be activated.
The AFS will operate:
.

Replacing
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 an INFINITI retailer.
Xenon headlight bulb:
If replacement is required, see an INFINITI
retailer.
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
When xenon headlights are on, they pro-
duce a high voltage. To prevent an electric
shock, never attempt to modify or disas-
semble. Always have your xenon headlights
replaced at an INFINITI retailer. For addi-
tional information, see “Headlight and turn
signal switch” in the“2. Instruments and
controls” section.
