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.

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 PROGRAMThis 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.

Automatic operation (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 controlled automatically.NOTE
The air conditioner cooling function operates only
when the engine is running.
Cooling and/or dehumidified heating:
1. Turn the fan speed control dial and air flow con-
trol dial to the AUTO position.
2. If the A/C indicator does not illuminate, press the
A/C button to switch on the air conditioner. (The
A/C indicator will illuminate.)
3. Turn the temperature dial for the desired tem-
perature.
4. Press the air intake button until both the indica-
tors(Outside air) and(Air recircula-
tion) are off. The intake air will be controlled auto-
matically between the air recirculation and out-
side air modes.
•The temperature of the passenger compartment
will be maintained automatically. Air flow distri-
bution and fan speed are also controlled auto-
matically.
•A visible mist may be seen coming from the ven-
tilators in hot, humid conditions as the air is
cooled rapidly. This does not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
Heater operation (A/C OFF):
Use this mode for heating purposes only.
1. Turn the fan speed control dial and air flow con-
trol dial to the AUTO position.
2. If the A/C indicator is illuminated, press the C>button to switch off the air conditioner. (The
A/C indicator light will turn off.)
3. Turn the temperature control dial for the desired
temperature.
4. Press the air intake button until both the indica-
tors
(Outside air) and(Air recircula-
tion) are off. The intake air will be controlled auto-
matically between the air recirculation and out-
side air modes.
•Do not set the temperature lower than the out-
side air temperature. Otherwise the system may
not work properly.
•This mode is not recommended when the win-
dows fog up.
•If the windows fog up, use dehumidified heating
instead of the A/C off heating.

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.
m
Air flows from the defogger outlets and
floor outlets.
mAir flows mainly from defogger 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.

•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.
The sensor
j1 on the fascia helps the system to
maintain a constant temperature inside the cabin.
Do not put anything on or around this sensor.
Air conditioner filter
The air conditioning system is equipped with a filter
which collects dirt, pollen, dust, etc. To make sure
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 air flow isextremely reduced or when the windows get fog
up easily during air conditioning system opera-
tion.

for an extended period of time with the engine
stopped.
AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
Do not adjust the audio system while driving so
that full attention may be given to vehicle opera-
tion.
Radio
•Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external influ-
ences. Intermittent changes in reception quality
are normally caused by these external influences.
•Using a mobile phone in or near the vehicle may
influence radio reception quality.
•Use the antenna for the best reception.
Compact Disc (CD) player
•During cold weather or rainy days, the player
may malfunction due to the humidity. If this oc-
curs, remove the CD and dehumidify or ventilate
the player completely.
•The player may skip while driving on rough roads.
