WARNINGO The air conditioner cooling function op-
erates only when the engine is running.
O 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. Do
not leave children or adults who would
normally require the assistance of
others in your vehicle. Unattended pets
should also not be left alone.
O Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the interior
air to become stale and the windows to
fog up.
O Positioning of the heater and/or air con-
ditioner controls should not be done
while driving so full attention may be
given to vehicle operation.
Start the engine and operate the controls
to activate the air conditioner. AUTOMATIC OPERATION
Cooling and/or dehumidified
heating (AUTO) This mode may be normally used all year
round as the system automatically works
to keep a constant temperature. Air flow
distribution and fan speed are also con-
trolled automatically.
1. Push the AUTO/ECON button on.
(AUTO will be displayed.)
2. If the A/C button indicator is off, push
the A/C button to activate air condi-
tioner. The A/C button indicator will
come on.
3. Turn the temperature control dial to
set the desired temperature.
O Adjust the temperature to about 75ÉF
(24ÉC) for normal operation.
O The temperature of the passenger
compartment will be maintained auto-
matically. Air flow distribution and fan
speed are also controlled automati-
cally.
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
operations as follows while the A/C
button indicator is on. AUTO ! ECON !

AMBIENT TEMPERATURE The outside ambient temperature will be
shown on the center display.
The ambient temperature sensor is lo-
cated in front of the radiator. The sensor
may be affected by road or engine heat,
wind direction and other driving condi-
tions. The display may differ from the ac-
tual outside temperature or the tempera-
ture displayed on various signs or bill-
boards.
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
q A
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 an 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 the
INFINITI Service and maintenance guide.
To replace the filter, contact an INFINITI
dealer. The filter should be replaced if air flow de-
creases significantly or if windows fog up
easily when operating the heater or air
conditioning system.

The air conditioning system in your
INFINITI vehicle is charged with a refriger-
ant designed with the environment in
mind. This refrigerant will not harm the
earth's ozone layer. However, special
charging equipment and lubricant are re-
quired when servicing your INFINITI air
conditioner. Using improper refrigerants
or lubricants will cause severe damage to
your air conditioning system. See ªCa-
pacities and recommended fuel/
lubricantsº in the ª9. Technical and con-
sumer informationº section for air condi-
tioning system refrigerant and lubricant
recommendations.
An INFINITI dealer will be able to service
your environmentally friendly air condi-
tioning system.
WARNINGThe air conditioner system contains refriger-
ant under high pressure. To avoid personal
injury, any air conditioner service should be
done only by an experienced technician with
proper equipment. Turn the ignition switch to the ACC or ON
position and push the POWER or RADIO
button 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 sig-
nal strength, distance from radio trans-
mitter, buildings, bridges, mountains and
other external influences. Intermittent
changes in reception quality normally are
caused by these external influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the ve-
hicle may influence radio reception
quality.
Radio reception Your radio system is equipped with state-
of-the-art electronic circuits to enhance
radio reception. These circuits are de-
signed to extend reception range, and to
enhance the quality of that reception.
However there are some general charac-
teristics of FM, AM and satellite radio sig-
nals that can affect radio reception
quality in a moving vehicle, even when
the finest equipment is used. These char-
acteristics are completely normal in a
given reception area, and do not indicate
any malfunction in your radio system. Remember that a moving vehicle is not
the ideal place to listen to a radio. Be-
cause of the movement, reception condi-
tions will constantly change. 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.

CAUTIONO Keep the antenna as far away as pos-
sible from the electronic control mod-
ules.
O Keep the antenna wire more than 8 in
(20 cm) away from the electronic control
system harness. Do not route the an-
tenna wire next to any harness.
O Adjust the antenna standing-wave ratio
as recommended by the manufacturer.
O Connect the ground wire from the CB
radio chassis to the body.
O For details, consult an INFINITI dealer.
WARNING O Use a phone after stopping your vehicle
in a safe location. If you have to use a
phone while driving, exercise extreme
caution at all times so full attention may
be given to vehicle operation.
O If a conversation in a moving vehicle re-
quires you to take notes, pull off the road
to a safe location and stop your vehicle
before doing so.
CAUTION To avoid draining the vehicle battery, use a
phone after starting the engine.BLUETOOTH HANDS-FREE PHONE SYSTEM
