WARNING
•The heater and air conditioner operate only
when the engine is running.
•Never leave children or adults who would nor-
mally require the support of others alone in
the vehicle. Pets should not be left alone ei-
ther. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls and inadvertently
become involved in a serious accident and
injure themselves. On hot, sunny days, tem-
peratures in a closed vehicle could quickly
become high enough to cause severe or pos-
sibly fatal injuries to people or animals.
•Do not use the recirculation mode for long
periods as it may cause the interior air to be-
come stale and the windows to fog up.
•Do not adjust the heating and air conditioning
controls while driving so that full attention may
be given to vehicle operation.
NOTE
•Condensation forms inside the air condition-
ing unit when the air conditioner is running,
and is safely discharged underneath your ve-
hicle.
•Traces of water on the ground are therefore
normal.

VENTS HEATER AND AIR CONDITIONER
OPERATION
4-2Heater and air conditioner, and audio system

Operating tips
•In order to improve the heater operation, clear
the snow and ice from the wiper blade and air
inlet in front of the windscreen.
•After parking in the sun, drive for two or three
minutes with the windows open to vent hot air
from the passenger compartment. Then close
the windows to allow the acceleration of the air
conditioner’s cooling operation.
•Keep the windows closed while the air condi-
tioner is operating.
•The air conditioning system should be operated
for about 10 minutes, at least once a month. This
helps prevent damage to the system due to lack
of lubrication.
•If the coolant temperature warning light comes
on, turn the air conditioner off. For additional
information, see “Engine overheat” in the “6. In
case of emergency” section.
•If the engine coolant reaches an extremely high
temperature, the air conditioning system will au-
tomatically turn off. This may happen for example
if the engine runs at idle speed for a long time on
a hot day.

Heating
Heater and air conditioner, and audio system4-5

Dehumidified defrosting or defogging:
1. Turn the air flow control dial to the
position.
2. Turn the fan speed control dial to the desired
position.
3. Turn the temperature control dial for the desired
temperature.
•To quickly remove ice from the outside of the
windscreen, turn the fan speed control dial to
the maximum position.
•As soon as possible after the windscreen has
been cleared of ice, turn the fan speed control
dial to the AUTO position for the automatic mode.
•When the air flow control dial is turned to theorposition, the outside air mode and
the air conditioner will automatically switch on
(except when the fan speed control dial is in the
OFF position) when the outside temperatures is
above −5°C (23°F) to defog the windscreen.
Outside air is drawn into the passenger com-
partment to improve the defogging performance.
Manual operation
Fan speed controlm:
Turn the fan speed control dial:
– to the OFF position to switch off the heater and
air conditioner system.
– to the AUTO position for automatic control of the
fan speed.
– to adjust the fan speed.Temperature control:
Turn temperature dial to set the desired air tempera-
ture.
Air flow control:
Turn the air flow control dial to one of following air
mode.
m
Air flows from centre and side vents.
m
Air flows from centre, side vents and
floor outlets.
mAir flows mainly from floor outlets.

Air recirculation
m:
Press the air intake button until the air recirculation
indicator light (
) comes on. When selected,
interior air will be recirculated inside the vehicle and
the air conditioner will switch on.
Use this mode to recirculate interior air inside the
passenger compartment in situations such as: driv-
ing on a dust raised road, avoiding traffic fumes or
having maximum cooling from the air conditioner.Outside air circulation
m:
Press the air intake button until outside air indicator
light (
) comes on. When selected, outside air
will be drawn into the vehicle.
Use this mode to draw outside air into the passen-
ger compartment for normal heating, ventilation or
air conditioner operation.
Operating tips
•In order to improve the heater operation, clear
the snow and ice from the wiper blade and air
inlet in front of the windscreen.
•When the engine coolant temperature and out-
side air temperature are low, the air flow from
the floor outlets may not operate for a maximum
of approximately 150 seconds. However, this is
not a malfunction. After the coolant temperature
has warmed up, the air flow from the floor outlets
will operate normally.
•After parking in the sun, drive for two or three
minutes with the windows open to vent hot air
from the passenger compartment. Then, close
the windows. This will allow the acceleration of
the air conditioner’s cooling operation.
•Keep the windows closed while the air condi-
tioner is operating.
•The air conditioning system should be operated
for approximately 10 minutes at least once a
month. This helps prevent damage to the system
due to lack of lubrication.

WARNING
•Do not leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in your vehicle. Pets should also not be left
alone. They could accidentally injure them-
selves or others through inadvertent opera-
tion of the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could quickly
become high enough to cause severe or pos-
sibly fatal injuries to people or animals.
•To prevent luggage or packages from sliding
forward during braking, do not stack anything
in the cargo area higher than the seatbacks.
•Secure all cargo with ropes or straps to pre-
vent it from sliding or shifting.
•Failure to follow proper seating instructions
see “Seats” in the “1. Safety — seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint system” sec-
tion, could result in serious personal injury in
an accident or sudden stop.
EXHAUST GAS (Carbon Monoxide)
WARNING
•Do not breathe exhaust gases; they contain
colourless and odourless carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas and can
cause unconsciousness or death.
•If you suspect that exhaust fumes are enter-
ing the vehicle, drive with all windows fully
open and have the vehicle inspected immedi-
ately.
•Do not run the engine in closed spaces, such
as a garage, for any longer than is absolutely
necessary.
•Do not park the vehicle with the engine run-
ning for any extended length of time.
•Keep the back door closed while driving, oth-
erwise exhaust gases could be drawn into the
passenger compartment. If you must drive in
this way for some reason, take the following
steps:
1) Open all the windows.
2) Manual air conditioner equipped models:
Move the air intake lever to the
posi-
tion.
Automatic air conditioner equipped mod-
els: Switch on the outside air mode.
3) Set the fan speed control to the maximum
position to circulate the air.
•If electrical wiring or other cable connections
must pass to a trailer through the seal of the
body, follow the manufacturer’s recommen-
dations to prevent carbon monoxide entry into
the vehicle.
•When a vehicle has been stopped in an open
area with its engine running for any significant
length of time, turn the fan on to force outside
air into the vehicle.
•The exhaust system and body should be in-
spected by a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop whenever:
– the vehicle is raised for service.
– you suspect that exhaust fumes are enter-
ing into the passenger compartment.
– you notice a change in the sound of the
exhaust system.
– you have had an accident involving dam-
age to the exhaust system, underbody, or
rear of the vehicle.
