2007 NISSAN MURANO air condition

If any electrical equipment does not operate,
check for an open fuse.
1. Be sure the ignition switch and headlight
switch are OFF.
2. Open the engine hood.
3. Remove the fusible link cover.
4. Remove the fuse with the fuse puller.
5. If the fuse is open
A, replace it with a new
fuse
B.
6. If a new fuse also opens, have the electrical
system checked and repaired by a NISSAN
dealer.
Fusible linksIf any electrical equipment does not operate and
fuses are in good condition, check the fusible
links. If any of these fusible links are melted,
replace only with genuine NISSAN parts.

TIRE PRESSURE
Tire pressure monitoring system
(TPMS)This vehicle is equipped with the tire pressure
monitoring system (TPMS). It monitors tire pres-
sure of all tires except the spare. When the low
tire pressure warning light is lit, one or more of
your tires is significantly under-inflated. If
equipped, the system also displays pressure of
all tires (except the spare tire) on the display
screen by sending a signal from a sensor that is
installed in each wheel.
The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle is
driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h). Also,
this system may not detect a sudden drop in tire
pressure (for example a flat tire while driving).
For more details, refer to “Low tire pressure
warning light” in the “2. Instruments and con-
trols” section, “Tire pressure information” in the
“4. Display screen, heater, air conditioner and
audio systems” section, “Tire pressure monitor-
ing system (TPMS)” in the “5. Starting and
driving” section, and “Flat tire” in the “6. In case
of emergency” section.

Tire inflation pressureCheck the tire pressures (including the
spare) often and always prior to long
distance trips. The recommended tire
pressure specifications are shown on the
F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. label and/or the
Tire and Loading Information label under
the “Cold Tire (Inflation) Pressure” head-
ing. The Tire and Loading Information
label is affixed to the driver side center
pillar. Tire pressures should be checked
regularly because:

Most tires naturally lose air over time.

Tires can lose air suddenly when
driven over potholes or other objects
or if the vehicle strikes a curbwhile
parking.
The tire pressures should be checked
when the tires are cold. The tires are
considered COLD after the vehicle has
been parked for 3 or more hours, or
driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) at mod-
erate speeds.Incorrect tire pressure, including un-
der inflation, may adversely affect
tire life and vehicle handling.
WARNING

Improperly inflated tires can fail
suddenly and cause an acci-
dent.

The Gross Vehicle Weight Rat-
ing (GVWR) is located on the
F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. label. The
vehicle weight capacity is indi-
cated on the Tire and Loading
Information label. Do not load
your vehicle beyond this capac-
ity. Overloading your vehicle
may result in reduced tire life,
unsafe operating conditions
due to premature tire failure, or
unfavorable handling charac-
teristics and could also lead to
a serious accident. Loading be-
yond the specified capacity mayalso result in failure of other
vehicle components.

Before taking a long trip, or
whenever you heavily load your
vehicle, use a tire pressure
gauge to ensure that the tire
pressures are at the specified
level.

Do not drive your vehicle over
85 MPH (137 km/h) unless it is
equipped with high speed rated
tires. Driving faster than 85
MPH (137 km/h) may result in
tire failure, loss of control and
possible injury.

For additional information re-
garding tires, refer to “Impor-
tant Tire Safety Information”
(US) or “Tire Safety Informa-
tion” (Canada) in the Warranty
Information Booklet.

upon how you use your vehicle. Operation under
the following conditions may require more fre-
quent oil and filter changes.

repeated short distance driving at cold out-
side temperatures,

driving in dusty conditions,

extensive idling,

towing a trailer,

stop and go “rush hour” traffic,

aggressive driving.
Refer to the “NISSAN Service and Maintenance

AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
REFRIGERANT AND LUBRICANT
RECOMMENDATIONSThe air conditioning system in this NISSAN
vehicle must be charged with the refriger-
ant HFC-134a (R-134a) and the lubricant,
NISSAN A/C System Oil Type S or the
exact equivalents.
CAUTION
The use of any other refrigerant or lubri-
cant will cause severe damage to the air
conditioning system and will require the
replacement of all air conditioner sys-
tem components.
The refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) in your
NISSAN vehicle will not harm the earth’s ozone
layer. Although this refrigerant does not affect
the earth’s atmosphere, certain governmental
regulations require the recovery and recycling of
any refrigerant during automotive air condition-
ing system service. A NISSAN dealer has the
trained technicians and equipment needed to
recover and recycle your air conditioning system
refrigerant.Contact a NISSAN dealer when servicing your
air conditioning system.

WARNING

Properly secure all cargo with
ropes or straps to help prevent
it from sliding or shifting. Do
not place cargo higher than the
seatbacks. In a sudden stop or
collision, unsecured cargo
could cause personal injury.

Do not load your vehicle any
heavier than the GVWR or the
maximum front and rear
GAWRs. If you do, parts of your
vehicle can break, tire damage
could occur, or it can change
the way your vehicle handles.
This could result in loss of con-
trol and cause personal injury.

Overloading not only can
shorten the life of your vehicle
and the tire, but can also cause
unsafe vehicle handling and
longer braking distances. Thismay cause a premature tire fail-
ure which could result in a seri-
ous accident and personal in-
jury. Failures caused by
overloading are not covered by
the vehicle’s warranty.
PAYLOAD WEIGHT CAPACITYThe payload weight capacity is the maxi-
mum total weight of passengers, optional
equipment (air conditioning, trailer hitch,
etc.) and cargo that your vehicle is de-
signed to carry.
Before driving a loaded vehicle, confirm
that you do not exceed the Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating (GVWR) or the Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) for your
vehicle. See “Vehicle loading informa-
tion” earlier in this section for details.
Also check tires for proper inflation pres-
sures. See the tire and loading informa-
tion label affixed to the driver’s door
center pillar.

(485)MEASUREMENT OF WEIGHTSSecure loose items to prevent weight
shifts that could affect the balance of
your vehicle. When the vehicle is loaded,
drive to a scale and weigh the front and
the rear wheels separately to determine
axle loads. Individual axle loads should
not exceed either of the gross axle weight
ratings (GAWR). The total of the axle
loads should not exceed the gross ve-
hicle weight rating (GVWR). These rat-
ings are given on the vehicle certification
label. If weight ratings are exceeded,
move or remove items to bring all weights
below the ratings.
