SERVICING AIR CONDITIONER
WARNING
The air conditioner system contains refriger-
ant under high pressure. To avoid personal in-
jury, any air conditioner service should be
done only by an experienced technician with
the proper equipment.
The air conditioner system in your vehicle is
charged with a refrigerant designed with the
environment in mind.
This refrigerant will not harm the earth’s ozone
layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant are
required when servicing your vehicle’s air con-
ditioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubri-
cants will cause severe damage to the air
conditioner system. (See Air conditioner sys-tem refrigerant and oil recommendations
in the
9. Maintenance and Schedules section.)
An INFINITI retailer will be able to service your
environmentally friendly air conditioner system.
Air conditioner filter
The air conditioner system is equipped with an
air conditioner filter. To make sure the air
conditioner heats, defogs, and ventilates effi-
ciently, replace the filter in accordance with the
specified maintenance intervals listed in the
separate maintenance booklet. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow
decreases significantly or if windows fog up
easily when operating the heater or air condi-
tioner.

FM radio reception
MAXIMUM SIGNAL DISTANCES
•FM : 25 to 30 miles (40 to 48 km)
•AM : 60 to 130 miles (97 to 209 km)
Range: FM range is normally limited to 25 to 30
miles (40 to 48 km), with monaural (single
station) FM having slightly more range than
stereo FM. External influences may sometimes
interfere with FM station reception even if the
FM station is within 25 miles (40 km). The
strength of the FM signal is directly related to
the distance between the transmitter and re-
ceiver. FM signals follow a line-of-sight path,
exhibiting many of the same characteristics as
light. For example they will reflect off objects. Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away from
a station transmitter, the signals will tend to
fade and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interference
from buildings, large hills or due to antenna
position, usually in conjunction with an in-
creased 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 bounce off the
ionosphere and be bent back to earth. Because
of these characteristics, AM signals are also
subject to interference as they travel from trans-
mitter to receiver.
Fading: This 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.
HD RadioTMTechnology reception
(for U.S.)
HD RadioTMTechnology reception needs to be
activated to receive HD Radio broadcasts, see
Audio settings later in this section.
This enables you to receive radio broadcasts
digitally (where available), providing a better
quality sound with clear reception. When this
feature is not activated or HD Radio broadcasts
are not available, you will receive analog radio
(AM/FM) broadcasts.
Satellite radio reception
When the satellite radio is used for the first time
or the battery has been replaced, the satellite
radio may not work properly. This is not a
malfunction. Wait more than 10 minutes with
the satellite radio ON and the vehicle outside of
any metal or large building for the satellite
radio to receive all of the necessary data.
The satellite radio requires an active SiriusXM
Satellite Radio subscription. The satellite ser-
vice is a available only to those at least 18 and
older in the 48 contiguous United States.

The 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.
The build up of ice on the satellite radio an-
tenna can affect satellite radio performance.
Remove the ice to restore satellite radio recep-
tion.
