ment will be maintained automatically. Air
flow distribution and fan speed are also
controlled automatically.
Economical operation (ECON) Economical operation reduces some load to
the engine to improve the fuel economy. It
allows higher humidity than normal operation. Pushing the AUTO/ECON button changes op-
erations as follows while the A/C button indi-

again after the temperature is individually set,
the display will show the temperature set for
the driver side.
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE The outside ambient temperature will be
shown on the center display.
The ambient temperature sensor is located in
front of the radiator. The sensor may be af-
fected by road or engine heat, wind direction
and other driving conditions. The display may
differ from the actual outside temperature or
the temperature displayed on various signs or
billboards.
OPERATING TIPS When the engine coolant temperature and
outside air temperature are low, the air flow
from the foot outlets may not operate for a
maximum of 150 seconds. However, this is not
a malfunction. After the coolant temperature
warms up, the air flow from the foot outlets will
operate normally. The sensor on the instrument panel helps
maintain a constant temperature; do not put
anything on or around this sensor.
IN-CABIN MICROFILTER The air conditioning system is equipped with a
in-cabin microfilter which collects dirt, pollen,
dust, etc. To make sure air conditioner heats,
defogs, and ventilates efficiently, replace the
filter in accordance with the maintenance
schedule in this manual. To replace the filter,
contact your INFINITI retailer.
The filter should be replaced if air flow
decreases significantly or if windows fog HA1011
