DISPLAY SCREEN
Displays the operational status of the system.
AUTO SWITCH

The compressor, intake door, air mix doors, outlet doors and blower speed are automatically controlled so
that the in-vehicle temperature will reach, and be maintained at the set temperature selected by the oper-
ator.
TEMPERATURE DIAL (DRIVER)
Increases or decreases the driver zone temperature.
TEMPERATURE DIAL (PASSENGER)
Increases or decreases the passenger zone temperature.
RECIRCULATION SWITCH ()

When pressed an indicator turns ON in the display, and air inlet is set to recirculation mode.

Recirculation mode is cancelled by pressing the switch again, turning ON the front defroster, pressing the
OFF switch, or pressing the A/C switch to turn off the A/C system and compressor.
DEFROSTER () SWITCH
Positions the air outlet doors to the defrost position. Also positions the intake door to the outside air position.
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SWITCH
When switch is ON, rear window is defogged.
OFF SWITCH (HOLD FAN DOWN SWITCH UNTIL SYSTEM SHUTS OFF)
The compressor and blower are OFF, the intake door is set to the outside air position, and the air outlet doors
are set to the foot (75% foot and 25% defrost) position.
A/C SWITCH
The compressor is ON or OFF.
(Pressing the A/C switch when the AUTO switch is ON will turn off the A/C switch and compressor.)
MODE SWITCH
Controls the air discharge outlets.
FRONT FAN SWITCH
Manually controls the blower speed. Seven speeds are available for manual control (as shown on the display
screen).
REAR FAN SWITCH (FRONT)
Manually controls the rear blower speed. Four speeds are available for manual control. When the rear fan
switch (front) is in the off (0) position, the rear blower motor cannot operate. Position (R) allows control of rear
blower speed and rear temperature/mode operation to be transferred to rear air control.
REAR TEMPERATURE/MODE DIAL (FRONT)
Increases or decreases the rear zone temperature and adjusts the mode simultaneously. FLOOR is full hot
setting, FLOOR/PANEL is warm setting, and PANEL is full cold setting.

CONSULT-II Function (BCM)EJS002C4
CONSULT-II can display each diagnostic item using the diagnostic test modes shown following.
CONSULT-II BASIC OPERATION
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carries out CAN communication.

SULT-II CONVERTER to the data link connector, then turn the
ignition switch ON.
2. Touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)”.
3. Touch “BCM” on “SELECT SYSTEM” screen. If “BCM” is not
indicated, go to GI-39, "
CONSULT-II Data Link Connector (DLC)
Circuit" .

A/C System Self-diagnosis FunctionEJS002CA
DESCRIPTION
Using Front Air Control Switches
NOTE:
Ambient temperature must be at least 10° C (50° F) to run self-diagnosis.
The self-diagnostic system diagnoses sensors, door motors, blower motor, etc. Refer to applicable sections
(items) for details. Shifting from usual control to the self-diagnostic system is accomplished by turning the igni-
tion switch ON and pressing the fan (down) switch while turning the passenger temperature dial in either direc-
tion (hold momentarily). Within 3 seconds of doing this, press the AUTO switch. The front blower speed
indication bars will flash and the ambient temperature display will indicate 0° during the self-diagnosis. Fault
codes (if any are present) will be displayed in the ambient temperature display area. Refer to AT C - 5 5 , "
SELF-
DIAGNOSIS CODE CHART" .
