position is selected, the air
conditioner automatically turns on (the indi-
cator light on the
button will come on)
if the outside temperature is more than 36°F
(2°C) . This dehumidifies the air which helps
defog the windshield. The
mode au-
tomatically turns off, allowing outside air to
be drawn into the passenger compartment
to further improve the defogging perfor-
mance.
Bi-level heating
The bi-level mode directs warmed air to the side
and center vents and to the front and rear floor
outlets.
1. Press the
button to the OFF position.
The indicator light on the

This mode heats the interior and defogs the wind-
shield.
1. Press the
air flow control button.
2. Turn the fan control dial to the desired posi- tion.
3. Turn the temperature control dial to the de- sired position between the middle and the
hot position. ●
When the
position is selected, the air
conditioner automatically turns on (however,
the indicator light on the
button will
not come on) if the outside temperature is
more than 36°F (2°C) . If the
air flow
control button is selected for more than one
minute, the air conditioning system will con-
tinue to operate until the fan control dial is
turned to OFF, the vehicle is shut off, or the
A/C button is used to turn off the compres-
sor even if the air flow control dial is turned to
a position other than the
position.
This dehumidifies the air which helps defog
the windshield. The
mode automati-
cally turns off, allowing outside air to be
drawn into the passenger compartment to
further improve the defogging performance.

ment will be maintained automatically. Air
flow distribution, fan speed and A/C on/off

ture warms up, air flow from the foot outlets
will operate normally.

Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of the
exterior lights in the rain or in a car wash. A
temperature difference between the inside and
the outside of the lens causes the fog. This is not
a malfunction. If large drops of water collect
inside the lens, contact a NISSAN dealer.
