  • To prevent an electric shock, never attempt to modify or disassemble the LED headlights assembly.

  • If replacement is required, contact a knowledgeable LEAF repairer such as a NISSAN certified electric vehicle dealer.

Halogen headlight (where fitted)

The headlight high-beam is a semi-sealed beam type that uses a replaceable headlight (halogen) bulb.

  • Do not leave the bulb out of the headlight reflector for a long period of time. Dust, moisture, smoke, etc. entering the headlight body may affect bulb performance.

  • High-pressure halogen gas is sealed inside the halogen bulb. The bulb may break if the glass envelope is scratched or the bulb is dropped.

  • Only touch the base when handling the bulb. Never touch the glass envelope. Touching the glass envelope could significantly affect bulb life and/or headlight performance.

  • Aiming is not necessary after replacing the bulb. When aiming adjustment is necessary, contact a knowledgeable LEAF repairer such as a NISSAN certified electric vehicle dealer.

  • Use the same number and wattage as originally installed as shown in the chart.
