CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATION
Should you sell your vehicle, be sure to
clear the channels of the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver. To clear
the channels, simultaneously hold down the
outside two buttons (#1 & #3) until the red
indicator light begins to flash rapidly (ap-
proximately 20 seconds). This will clear all
three buttons. Individual buttons cannot be
cleared, but can be reprogrammed at any
time by following the programming proce-
dures described previously.
ROLLING CODE PROGRAMMING
If your hand held transmitter appears to
train to the Integrated HomeLinkTUniversal
Transceiver, but does not open your garage
door, and your garage door opener was
manufactured after 1995, your garage door
opener may have a Code Protected or
Rolling Code feature. This type of system
will change the code of your garage door
opener every time you open or close your
garage door.
To determine if you have one of these
systems, depress the button on the Inte-
grated HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
that you have just programmed. If the LED
on the HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
flashes rapidly for 1 to 2 seconds, then
remains on, your garage door opener has a
rolling code system.
To operate your rolling code garage door
opener from your Integrated HomeLinkT
Universal Transceiver, follow these steps:
1. Program your hand held transmitter to
the Integrated HomeLinkTUniversal
Transceiver by following the procedures
outlined previously (if not yet pro-
grammed).2. Program your garage door opener re-
ceiver to recognize the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver (The
Integrated HomeLinkTUniversal Trans-
ceiver follows the same procedure to
train to the receiver as your hand held
transmitter did when it was first installed):
a) Remove the cover panel from your
garage door opener receiver. The re-
ceiver should be located by the ga-
rage door opener motor.
b)
Locate the training button on the ga-
rage door opener receiver. The exact
location and color of the button may
vary by garage door opener brand. If
you have difficulty locating the training
button, reference your garage door
opener manual. If you have difficulty
programming your garage door
opener equipped with a rolling code
system to recognize the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver with
the Rolling Code feature, call NISSAN
Consumer Affairs Department.
c) Press the training button on the ga-
rage door opener receiver for 1 to 2
seconds.

AUTOMATIC OPERATION
Push the AUTOMATIC button and select the
desired temperature. The selected tempera-
ture and AUTO show in the display window.
The EATC heats or cools to achieve the set
temperature.
When in AUTOMATIC and weather conditions
require heat, air is sent to the floor. However,
a feature is included in the EATC to prevent
blowing cold air to the floor if the engine
coolant is not warm enough to allow heating.
In three or four minutes the fan speed gradu-
ally increases and airflow changes to the floor.
If unique conditions exist, such as window
fogging, the five override buttons allow spe-
cific airflow selection. The thumbwheel al-
lows you to adjust the fan speed to suit your
needs.
Temperature selection
TheTEMPbutton on the left side of
the control panel is for temperature selec-
tion. The
side lowers the set tempera-
ture, and theside raises the set tem-
perature. Press and hold either side of the
button to rapidly change the temperature
setting in one degree increments to either
65ÉF (18ÉC) or 85ÉF (29ÉC). If you wantcontinuous maximum cooling, push the
side of the TEMP button until 60ÉF
(16ÉC) shows in the display window. The
EATC cools at maximum and disregards the
60ÉF (16ÉC) setting until a warmer tempera-
ture is selected. If you want continuous
maximum heating, push the
side of the
TEMP button until 90ÉF (32ÉC) shows in the
display window. The EATC provides maxi-
mum heat regardless of the 90ÉF (32ÉC)
setting until a cooler temperature is se-
lected.
Fan speed and thumbwheel
Your EATC automatically adjusts the fan
speed to the existing conditions. To control
the fan speed yourself, use the thumbwheel
located at the extreme right side of the
EATC control panel. Using the thumbwheel
cancels the automatic fan speed control,
and causes a
to appear in the display
window. Rotate the thumbwheel up for HI
speeds and down for LO speeds.
To return to auto fan control, press the
AUTOMATIC button.
Air flow control
Your EATC has five buttons which allow you
to make special selections. The buttons aregrouped in the middle of the EATC panel
and allow you to determine airflow location.
Pressing any of the air control buttons
changes airflow location only, and does not
affect the ability of the system to control
temperature or fan speed. Return to fully
automatic operation by pushing the AUTO-
MATIC button.
Push this button for airflow to the front and
rear floor outlets and windshield at the same
time. The
indicator light comes on,
and the display window shows the set tem-
perature.
Push this button to obtain maximum airflow
to the windshield. Adjust the temperature
setting as required for defrosting. The
indicator light comes on, and the
display window shows the set temperature.
When the outside temperature is about
45ÉF (7ÉC) or above, the air is dehumidified
to prevent window fogging.

RADIO
Turn the ignition key to ACC or ON and
press the power on switch to turn on the
radio. If you listen to the radio with the
engine not running, the key should be
turned to the ACC position.
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter,
buildings, bridges, mountains and other ex-
ternal influences. Intermittent changes in
reception quality normally are caused by
these external influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the
vehicle may influence radio reception
quality.
Radio reception
Your NISSAN radio system is equipped with
state-of-the-art electronic circuits to en-
hance radio reception. These circuits are
designed to extend reception range, and to
enhance the quality of that reception.
However there are some general character-
istics of both FM and AM radio signals that
can affect radio reception quality in a mov-
ing vehicle, even when the finest equipment
is used. These characteristics are com-pletely normal in a given reception area,
and do not indicate any malfunction in your
NISSAN radio system.
Reception conditions will constantly change
because of vehicle movement. Buildings,
terrain, signal distance and interference
from other vehicles can work against ideal
reception. Described below are some of the
factors that can affect your radio reception.
FM RADIO RECEPTION
Range: FM range is normally limited to 25 to
30 miles (40 to 48 km), with monaural
(single channel) FM having slightly more
range than stereo FM. External influences
may sometimes interfere with FM station
reception even if the FM station is within 25
miles (40 km). The strength of the FM signal
is directly related to the distance between
the transmitter and receiver. FM signals
follow a line-of-sight path, exhibiting many
of the same characteristics as light. For
example they will reflect off objects.
Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away
from a station transmitter, the signals will
tend to fade and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interference
from buildings, large hills or due to antennaposition, usually in conjunction with in-
creased distance from the station transmit-
ter, static or flutter can be heard. This can
be reduced by adjusting the treble control
counterclockwise to reduce treble re-
sponse.
Multipath reception: Because of the reflec-
tive characteristics of FM signals, direct and
reflected signals reach the receiver at the
same time. The signals may cancel each
other, resulting in momentary flutter or loss
of sound.
AM RADIO RECEPTION
AM signals, because of their low frequency,
can bend around objects and skip along the
ground. In addition, the signals can be
bounced off the ionosphere and bent back
to earth. Because of these characteristics.
AM signals are also subject to interference
as they travel from transmitter to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing
through freeway underpasses or in areas
with many tall buildings. It can also occur for
several seconds during ionospheric turbu-
lence even in areas where no obstacles
exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical

could accidently injure themselves or
others through inadvertent operation
of the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny
days, temperatures in a closed vehicle
could quickly become high enough to
cause severe or possibly fatal injuries
to people or animals.
EXHAUST GAS
(Carbon Monoxide)
WARNING
Do not breathe exhaust gases; they
contain colorless and odorless carbon
monoxide. Carbon monoxide is dan-
gerous. It can cause unconsciousness
or death.
cIf you suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering the vehicle, drive with
all windows fully open, and have the
vehicle inspected immediately.
cDo not run the engine in closed
spaces such as a garage.c
Do not park the vehicle with the en-
gine running for any extended length
of time.
cKeep the rear door and rear window
closed while driving, otherwise ex-
haust gases could be drawn into the
passenger compartment. If you must
drive with the back door or rear win-
dow open, follow these procedures:
1. Open all the windows.
2. Set the air flow control dial to the
position and turn the fan
control dial to 4 (high) to circulate
the air.
cIf electrical wiring or other cable
connections must pass to a trailer
through the seal on the back door or
body, follow the trailer manufactur-
er's recommendation to prevent car-
bon monoxide entry into the vehicle.
cThe exhaust system and body
should be inspected by a qualified
mechanic whenever:
a. The vehicle is raised for service.b. You suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering into the passenger
compartment.
c. You notice a change in the sound
of the exhaust system.
d.
You have had an accident involv-
ing damage to the exhaust system,
underbody, or rear of the vehicle.
THREE-WAY CATALYST
The three-way catalyst is an emission con-
trol device installed in the exhaust system.
Exhaust gases in the three-way catalyst are
burned at high temperatures to help reduce
pollutants.
WARNING
cThe exhaust gas and the exhaust
system are very hot. Keep people,
animals or flammable materials
away from the exhaust system com-
ponents.
cDo not stop or park the vehicle over
