Nickel Metal Hydride Battery ReplacementNBGI0006S06CONSULT-II contains a nickel metal hydride battery. When replacing the battery obey the following:
WARNING:
Replace the nickel metal hydride battery with Genuine CONSULT-II battery only. Use of another bat-
tery may present a risk of fire or explosion. The battery may present a fire or chemical burn hazard if
mistreated. Do not recharge, disassemble of dispose of in fire.
Keep the battery out of reach of children and discard used battery conforming to the local regulations.
Checking EquipmentNBGI0006S07When ordering the below equipment, contact your NISSAN/INFINITI distributor.

Function and System Application (Cont'd)

DESCRIPTION=NBHA0087GeneralNBHA0087S01The variable compressor is basically a swash plate type that changes piston stroke in response to the required
cooling capacity.
The tilt of the swash plate allows the piston's stroke to change so that refrigerant discharge can be continu-
ously changed from 14.5 to 184 cm
3(0.885 to 11.228 cu in).

Operation=NBHA0087S021. Operation Control ValveNBHA0087S0201Operation control valve is located in the suction port (low-pressure) side, and opens or closes in response to
changes in refrigerant suction pressure.
Operation of the valve controls the internal pressure of the crankcase.
The angle of the swash plate is controlled between the crankcase's internal pressure and the piston cylinder
pressure.
2. Maximum Cooling
NBHA0087S0202Refrigerant pressure on the low-pressure side increases with an increase in heat loads.
When this occurs, the control valve's bellows compress to open the low-pressure side valve and close the
high-pressure side valve.
This causes the following pressure changes:
Ithe crankcase's internal pressure to equal the pressure on the low-pressure side;
Ithe cylinder's internal pressure to be greater than the crankcase's internal pressure.
Under this condition, the swash plate is set to the maximum stroke position.

IntroductionNBHA0013AIR CONDITIONER LAN SYSTEM OVERVIEW CONTROL SYSTEMNBHA0013S01The LAN system consists of auto amp., air mix door motor and mode door motor.
A configuration of these components is shown in the diagram below.
RHA439G
FeaturesNBHA0014SYSTEM CONSTRUCTION (LAN)NBHA0014S08A small network is constructed between the auto amplifier, air mix door motor and mode door motor. The auto
amplifier and motors are connected by data transmission lines and motor power supply lines. The LAN net-
work is built through the ground circuits of the two motors.
Addresses, motor opening angle signals, motor stop signals and error checking messages are all transmitted
through the data transmission lines connecting the auto amplifier and two motors.
The following functions are contained in LCUs built into the air mix door motor and the mode door motor.
IAddress
IMotor opening angle signals
IData transmission
IMotor stop and drive decision
IOpening angle sensor (PBR function)
IComparison
IDecision (Auto amplifier indicated value and motor opening angle comparison)
RHA440GA
OperationNBHA0014S0801The auto amplifier receives data from each of the sensors. The amplifier sends air mix door and mode door
opening angle data to the air mix door motor LCU and mode door motor LCU.
The air mix door motor and mode door motor read their respective signals according to the address signal.
Opening angle indication signals received from the auto amplifier and each of the motor position sensors are
compared by the LCUs in each motor with the existing decision and opening angles. Subsequently, HOT/
COLD or DEFROST/VENT operation is selected. The new selection data is returned to the auto amplifier.
