WARNING
● The air conditioner cooling function op-
erates only when the engine is running.
● Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the assistance
of others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should also not be left alone. They
could accidentally injure themselves or
others through inadvertent operation of
the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause
severe or possibly fatal injuries to
people or animals.
● Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the interior
air to become stale and the windows to
fog up.
NOTE: ● Odors from inside and outside the vehicle
can build up in the air conditioner unit. Odor
can enter the passenger compartment
through the vents.

OPERATING TIPS
●When the engine coolant temperature and
outside air temperature are low, the air flow
from the foot outlets may not operate for a
maximum of 150 seconds. However, this is
not a malfunction. After the coolant tempera-
ture warms up, air flow from the foot outlets
will operate normally.
The sunload sensor
1, located on the top center
of the instrument panel, helps the system main-
tain a constant temperature. Do not put anything
on or around this sensor. The air conditioner system in your NISSAN ve-
hicle is charged with a refrigerant designed with
the environment in mind.
This refrigerant does not harm the earth’s
ozone layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant is re-
quired when servicing your NISSAN air condi-
tioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubricants
will cause severe damage to your air conditioner
system. For additional information, refer to “Air
conditioner system refrigerant and oil recommen-
dations” in the “Technical and consumer informa-
tion” section of this manual.
It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
to service your “environmentally friendly” air con-
ditioning system.
WARNING
The air conditioner system contains refrig-
erant under high pressure. To avoid per-
sonal injury, any air conditioner service
should be done only by an experienced
technician with proper equipment.

WARNING
●The Mobile Entertainment System is
designed for rear seat passenger view-
ing only.
● It is unlawful in most jurisdictions for a
person to drive a motor vehicle which is
equipped with a television viewer or
screen that is located in the motor ve-
hicle at any point forward of the back of
the driver’s seat, or that is visible, di-
rectly or indirectly, to the driver while
operating the vehicle.
● In the interest of safety, the monitors
should never be installed where they
will be visible, directly or indirectly, by
the operator of the motor vehicle.
● If your vehicle is equipped with a wire-
less rear seat audio system or any other
wireless infrared device, make sure it is
powered off when operating the Rear
Seat Entertainment System. If both sys-
tems are powered on at the same time,
the two systems may obstruct each
other, possibly creating undesirable au-
dio interference through the wireless
headphones. ●
For safety reasons, when changing
video discs it is recommended that the
vehicle is not in motion, and that you do
not allow children to unfasten safety
belts to change discs or make any ad-
justments to the system. System adjust-
ments can be accomplished using the
remote control unit, while safety belts
remain fastened.
CAUTION
● Be sure to run the vehicle engine while
using the system. Using this system
without running the engine can result in
a battery drain. To avoid the risk of
battery drain, please remember to turn
off the system when the vehicle is not in
use. Do not touch the inner pins of the
jacks on the front panel. Electrostatic
discharge may cause permanent dam-
age to the system.
NOTE:
Depending on the USB device, it may or
may not charge when connected to the USB
connection port. Not all devices are able to
charge when connected to the USB connec-
tion port. Each monitor includes a built-in dual channel
infrared transmitter for use with wireless head-
phones. The wireless headphones must be used
within a line of sight from the transmitter as infra-
red transmission, like visible light, travels only in a
straight line.
When placing the headphones on your head,
make sure to observe the Left and Right orienta-
tion. The headphones must be oriented correctly
(facing forward) in order to receive the audio
signal. Press the power button on the head-
phones, then select channel “A” to listen to moni-
tor A, or channel “B” to listen to monitor B. Adjust
the audio level using the volume control on each
headphone.
There is a 3.5mm stereo headphone output jack
on each monitor which can be used with any
standard stereo headphone with an in-line vol-
ume control (wired headphones sold separately) .
The system includes a built-in infrared receiver
for use with the included wireless remote control.

trol operation” in this section.
