HEADLIGHTSReplacing the halogen headlight bulb
NOTE:
The headlight is a semi-sealed beam type
which used a replaceable headlight (halo-
gen) bulb. They can be replaced from inside
the engine compartment without removing
the headlight assembly.

●Aiming is not necessary after replacing
the bulb. When aiming adjustment 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.
