IN-CABIN MICROFILTER
Without Forest Air
®system
The climate control system is equipped
with an in-cabin microfilter which collects
dirt, pollen, dust, etc. To make sure that
the air conditioner heats, defogs, and
ventilates efficiently, replace the filter in
accordance with the maintenance schedule
in the INFINITI Service and Maintenance
Guide. To replace the filter, contact an
INFINITI retailer.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow
decreases significantly or if windows fog
up easily when operating the heater or air
conditioner.
With Forest Air®system
The climate control system is equipped
with a natural grape seed polyphenol filter
which collects and neutralizes dirt, pollen,
dust, allergen (such as pollen, tick shell),
etc. To make sure that the air conditioner
heats, defogs and ventilates efficiently,
replace the filter in accordance with the
maintenance schedule in the INFINITI Ser-
vice and Maintenance Guide. To replace the
filter, contact an INFINITI retailer.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow
decreases significantly or if windows fog
up easily when operating the heater or air
conditioner.
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.

lubricants ”in the “9. Technical and con-
sumer information ”section for climate

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.
