Bulb ReplacementNJEL0015The headlamp is a semi-sealed beam type which uses a replace-
able halogen bulb. The bulb can be replaced from the engine com-
partment side without removing the headlamp body.
+Grasp only the plastic base when handling the bulb. Never
touch the glass envelope.
1. Disconnect the battery cable.
2. Pull off the rubber cap.
3. Disconnect the harness connector from the back side of the
bulb.
4. Remove the bulb retaining ring.
5. Remove the headlamp bulb carefully. Do not shake or rotate
the bulb when removing it.
6. Install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Do not leave headlamp reflector without bulb for a long period
of time. Dust, moisture, smoke, etc. entering headlamp body
may affect the performance of the headlamp. Remove head-
lamp bulb from the headlamp reflector just before a replace-
ment bulb is installed.
Aiming AdjustmentNJEL0016For details, refer to the regulations in your own country.
Before performing aiming adjustment, check the following.
1) Keep all tires inflated to correct pressures.
2) Place vehicle on flat surface.
3) See that there is no-load in vehicle (coolant, engine oil filled up
to correct level and full fuel tank) other than the driver (or
equivalent weight placed in driver's position).

System DescriptionNJEL0351The headlamp system on vehicles for North Europe contains a daytime light unit. The unit activates the fol-
lowing whenever the engine is running with the lighting switch in the OFF position:
+Low beam headlamps
+Parking, license, tail and illumination lamps
Power is supplied at all times
+through 10A fuse (No. 38, located in the fusible link and fuse box)
+to daytime light unit terminal 1 and
+to lighting switch terminal 11.
Power is also supplied at all times
+through 15A fuse (No. 39, located in the fusible link and fuse box)
+to daytime light unit terminal 3 and
+to lighting switch terminal 5.
Power is also supplied at all times
+through 15A fuse (No. 40, located in the fusible link and fuse box)
+to daytime light unit terminal 2 and
+to lighting switch terminal 8.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied
+through 10A fuse [No. 20, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
+to daytime light unit terminal 7.
With the ignition switch in the START position, power is supplied
+through 10A fuse [No. 21, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
+to daytime light unit terminal 6.
Ground is supplied to daytime light unit terminal 9 through body grounds E30 and E73.
HEADLAMP OPERATION (DAYTIME LIGHT CANCEL OPERATION)NJEL0351S01When the lighting switch is turned to the 1st or 2nd position, power is supplied
+through lighting switch terminal 12,
+to daytime light unit terminal 11.
Then daytime light will be canceled. And the lighting system operation will be the same as no daytime light
system.
DAYTIME LIGHT OPERATIONNJEL0351S02With the engine running and the lighting switch in the OFF position, power is supplied
+from alternator terminal 3
+to daytime light unit terminal 8,
+through daytime light unit terminal 5
+to terminal 3 of headlamp LH,
+through daytime light unit terminal 4
+to terminal 3 of headlamp RH and
+through daytime light unit terminal 10
+to tail lamp and illumination.
Ground is supplied to terminal 2 of each headlamp through body grounds E30 and E73.
