Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Air conditioner filter (where fitted)
The air conditioning system is equipped with a filter
which collects dirt, pollen, dust, etc. To make sure
the air conditioner heats, defogs, and ventilates effi-
ciently, replace the filter regularly. For filter replace-
ment, contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop.
The filter should be replaced if the airflow is ex-
tremely reduced or when the windows fog up
easily during air conditioning system operation.
Servicing air conditioner
The air conditioning system (where fitted) in your
NISSAN vehicle is charged with an environmentally
friendly refrigerant.
NISSAN GREEN PROGRAM
This refrigerant will not harm the earth’s ozone
layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant are re-
quired when servicing your vehicle’s air conditioner.
Using improper refrigerants or lubricants will cause
severe damage to the air conditioning system. See
“Air conditioning system refrigerant and lubricant
recommendations (where fitted)” in the “9. Techni-
cal information” section of this manual.
A NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop will be able
to service the air conditioning system.

WARNING
Do not leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in your vehicle. Pets should not be left alone
either. On hot, sunny days, temperatures in a
closed vehicle could quickly become high
enough to cause severe or possibly fatal inju-
ries 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. It is
recommended that you use the outside air
mode in cold weather to keep the windows
clear.
Do not adjust the positioning of the heating/
ventilation or air conditioning controls while
driving.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine NOTE
The air conditioner cooling function operates
only when the engine is running, and the am-
bient temperature is above -2°C (28°F).
The air conditioner can be used to dehumidify
when heating, or to reduce air temperature
and dehumidify when cooling. This is possible
in both auto or manual control mode as long
as the fan speed is minimum (first bar).
When the AUTO mode is selected, the tem-
perature of the passenger compartment will
be maintained automatically. Air flow distribu-
tion and fan speed will also be controlled au-
tomatically.

The sensor
jA (next to the tweeter speaker) helps
the air conditioning system to maintain a constant
cabin temperature. Do not put anything on or around
this sensor and ensure that items nearby on the
windscreen do not shade it.
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 airflow from the
floor outlets may not operate for a maximum of
150 seconds. However, this is not a malfunction.
After the coolant temperature has warmed up,
the airflow from the floor outlets will operate nor-
mally.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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 windows closed while the air conditioner 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 gauge exceeds the
“HOT” position, 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.
Air conditioner filter
The air conditioning system is equipped with a filter
which collects dirt, pollen, dust, etc. To make sure
the air conditioner heats, defogs, and ventilates effi-
ciently, replace the filter regularly. To replace the fil-
ter, contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
The filter should be replaced if the airflow is ex-
tremely reduced or when the windows fog up
easily while operating the heater or air condition-
ing system.
