REAR SWITCHES FOR CLIMATE
CONTROL (if so equipped)
The rear seat passengers can adjust the climate
control system using the climate controls in the
rear armrest panel.
ªAUTOº button: automatic climate control

º button: Fan speed control up (Max fan
speed !return to Low fan speed)

º button: Temperature control up/down
OPERATING TIPS
When the engine coolant temperature and out-
side air temperature are low, the air flow from
the foot outlets may not operate for a maximum
of 150 seconds. This is not a malfunction. After
the coolant temperature warms up, air will flow
normally from the foot outlets. The sunload sensor
sAon the instrument panel
helps maintain a constant temperature. Do not
put anything on or around this sensor.
IN-CABIN MICROFILTER
The climate control system is equipped with an
in-cabin microfilter which collects dirt, pollen,
dust, etc. To make sure the air conditioner
heats, defogs, and ventilates efficiently, replace
the filter in accordance with the maintenance
schedule in the INFINITI Service and Mainte-
nance Guide. To replace the filter, contact an
INFINITI retailer. The filter should be replaced if air flow is ex-
tremely decreased or when windows fog up eas-
ily when operating heater or air conditioning
system.
SERVICING CLIMATE CONTROL
The climate control system in your INFINITI is
charged with a refrigerant designed with the
environment in mind.
This refrigerant will not
harm the earth's ozone layer. However, special
charging equipment and lubricant are required
when servicing your INFINITI air conditioner.
Using improper refrigerants or lubricants will
cause severe damage to your climate control
system. (See ªCAPACITIES AND RECOMMENDED
FUEL/LUBRICANTSº in the ª9. Technical and
consumer informationº section for climate con-
trol system refrigerant and lubricant recommen-
dations.)
Your INFINITI retailer will be able to service your
environmentally friendly climate control sys-
tem.
WARNING
The system contains refrigerant under high
pressure. To avoid personal injury, any air con-
ditioner service should be done only by an ex-
perienced technician with the proper
equipment.

Static and flutter: During signal interference
from buildings, large hills or due to antenna
position, usually in conjunction with increased
distance from the station transmitter, static or
flutter can be heard. This can be reduced by
lowering the treble setting to reduce the treble
response.
Multipath reception: Because of the reflective
characteristics of FM signals, direct and re-
flected signals reach the receiver at the same
time. The signals may cancel each other, result-
ing in momentary flutter or loss of sound.
AM radio reception :
AM signals, because of their low frequency, can
bend around objects and skip along the ground.
In addition, the signals can be bounced off the
ionosphere and bent back to earth. Because of
these characteristics. AM signals are also sub-
ject to interference as they travel from transmit-
ter to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing
through freeway underpasses or in areas with
many tall buildings. It can also occur for several
seconds during ionospheric turbulence even in
areas where no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical
power lines, electric signs and even traffic
lights.Satellite radio reception :
When the satellite radio (if so equipped) is first
installed or the battery has been replaced, the
satellite radio may not work properly. This is not
a malfunction. Wait more than 10 minutes with
satellite radio ON and the vehicle outside of any
metal or large building for satellite radio to
receive all of the necessary data.
The satellite radio mode will be skipped unless
an optional satellite receiver and antenna are
installed and an XMT
satellite radio service
subscription is active. Satellite radio is not
available in Alaska, Hawaii and Guam.
Satellite radio performance may be affected if
cargo carried on the roof blocks the satellite
radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo near the satellite
antenna.
A build up of ice on the satellite radio antenna
can affect satellite radio performance. Remove
the ice to restore satellite radio reception.
Compact Disc (CD) player
c Do not force a compact disc into the CD insert
slot. This could damage the CD and/or CD
changer/player.
c Trying to load a CD with the CD door closed
could damage the CD and/or CD changer.

The satellite radio mode requires an active XM
T
satellite radio service subscription. Satellite
radio is not available in Alaska, Hawaii and
Guam. It may take some time to receive the activation
signal after subscribing to the XM
Tsatellite
radio. After receiving the activation signal, an
available station list will be automatically up-
dated in the radio. Push the ignition switch from
LOCK to ACC to update the station list.
Audio main operation
Head unit :
The radio has an FM diversity reception system,
which employs two antennas printed on the
rear window. This system automatically
switches to the antenna which is receiving less
interference.
The auto loudness circuit enhances the low and
high frequency ranges automatically in both
radio reception and CD playback.
ON´OFF/Volume control :
Push the ignition switch to the ACC or ON
position, and then push the ON´OFF/VOLUME
control knob while the system is off to call up
the audio mode which was playing immediately
before the system was turned off. While the
system is on, pushing the ON´OFF/VOLUME
control knob turns the system off.
Turn the ON´OFF/VOLUME control knob to ad-
just the volume.

cYou will not be able to use a hands-free
phone under the following conditions:
± Your vehicle is outside of the telephone service area.
± Your vehicle is in an area where it is difficult to receive radio waves; such as in
a tunnel, in an underground parking ga-
rage, behind a tall building or in a moun-
tainous area.
± Your cellular phone is locked in order not to be dialed.
c
When the radio wave condition is not ideal or
ambient sound is too loud, it may be difficult
to hear the other person's voice during a call.
cImmediately after the ignition switch is pushed
to the ON position, it may be impossible to
receive a call for a short period of time.
c Do not place the cellular phone in an area
surrounded by metal or far away from the
in-vehicle phone module to prevent tone
quality degradation and wireless connection
disruption.
c While a cellular phone is connected through
the BluetoothT wireless connection, the bat-
tery power of the cellular phone may dis-
charge quicker than usual.
c If the Bluetooth THands-Free Phone System
seems to be malfunctioning, please visit www.InfinitiUSA.com/bluetooth for trouble-
shooting help.
c Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to
come from the audio system speakers. Stor-
ing the device in a different location may
reduce or eliminate the noise.
c Refer to the cellular phone Owner's Manual
regarding the telephone pairing procedure
specific to your phone, battery charging,
cellular phone antenna, etc.
c The antenna display on the monitor will not
coincide with the antenna display of some
cellular phones.
c Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible to hear the caller's voice clearly as
well as to minimize its echoes.
c If reception between callers is unclear, ad-
justing the incoming or outgoing call volume
may improve the clarity.
