OPERATING TIPS
When the engine coolant temperature and
outside air temperature are low, the air flow
from the foot outlets may not operate. However,
this is not a malfunction. After the coolant
temperature warms up, the air flow from the
foot outlets will operate normally.
The sensors
*Aand*Blocated on the
instrument panel help maintain a constant
temperature. Do not put anything on or around
the sensors.
LINKING INTELLIGENT KEY (if so
equipped)
The air conditioner system settings can be
memorized for each Intelligent Key. For more
details, see “Setting memory function” (P.3-35) .
IN-CABIN MICROFILTER
The air conditioner 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 specified maintenance
intervals listed in the “9. Maintenance and
schedules” section. It is recommended to see
a NISSAN dealer to replace the filter.
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 AIR CONDITIONER
The air conditioner system in your NISSAN 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 NISSAN air con-
ditioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubri-
cants will cause severe damage to your air
conditioner system. (See “Capacities and re-
commended fluids/lubricants” (P.10-2) for air
conditioner system refrigerant and lubricant
recommendations.)
Your NISSAN dealer will be able to service your
environmentally friendly air conditioner system.
WARNING
The system contains refrigerant under
high pressure. To avoid personal injury,
any air conditioner service should be
done only by an experienced technician
with the proper equipment.
