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.
When pressing AUTO switch, air inlet, air outlet, blower speed, and discharge air temperature are auto-
matically controlled.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL DIAL (TEMPERATURE CONTROL) (DRIVER SIDE)
Increases or decreases the set temperature.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL DIAL (TEMPERATURE CONTROL) (PASSENGER SIDE)
Increases or decreases the set temperature.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL DIAL (TEMPERATURE AND MODE CONTROL) (REAR)
Increases or decreases the set temperature. The mode also changes from foot at full hot setting, to foot/vent
mid-range (warm) setting, and then to panel on full cold setting.
RECIRCULATION () SWITCH
When REC switch is ON, REC switch indicator turns ON, and air inlet is set to REC.
When REC switch is turned OFF, or when compressor is turned from ON to OFF, REC switch is automati-
cally turned OFF. REC mode can be re-entered by pressing REC switch again.
REC switch is not operated when DEF switch is turned ON, or at the D/F position.
DEFROSTER () SWITCH
Positions the air outlet doors to the defrost position. Also positions the intake doors to the outside air position.
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SWITCH
When switch is ON, rear window is defogged.
OFF SWITCH
The compressor and blower are OFF, the intake doors are 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 (FRONT)
Controls the air discharge outlets.
FRONT BLOWER CONTROL DIAL
Manually control the blower speed. Seven speeds are available for manual control (as shown on the display
screen).

CONSULT-II Function (HVAC)EJS003XD
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.
1. With the ignition switch OFF, connect CONSULT-II and “CON-
SULT-II CONVERTER” to the data link connector, and turn the
ignition switch ON.
2. Touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)”.
3. Touch “HVAC” on “SELECT SYSTEM” screen. If “HVAC” is not
indicated, go to GI-39, "
