should not be left alone either. 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.
Start the hybrid system and operate the
automatic climate control system.
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.

/+
Touch to change the fan speed of the air
from the ventilators.
. A/C
Touch to turn the air conditioner on/off.
. DUAL
Touch to turn the DUAL mode (passen-
ger side temperature control) on/off.
. Upper Vent
Touch to turn the upper vent system on/
off.
Automatic upper ventilator system:
In this mode, air from the center ventilators
flows both straight and upward in order to
control the cabin temperature without blow-
ing air directly on the occupants.
1. Push the “CLIMATE” button with the climate control system turned on to
display the Climate screen.
2. Select the “Upper Vent” key, and the indicator on the screen will illuminate.
The air flow against the driver’s or
passenger’s upper body becomes gentle.
. Distribution between straight and up-
ward flows is determined automatically
by the climate control system. If you prefer strong air flow against your upper
body, select the “Upper Vent” key to turn
the indicator light off.
. When the outside temperature decreases
to approximately 14°F (−10°C), the
“Upper Vent” function does not activate.
The “Upper Vent” function reactivates
automatically when ambient tempera-
ture is 14°F (−10°C) or more.
OPERATING TIPS
When the engine coolant temperature and
outside air temperature are low, the air flow
from the foot outlets may not operate. This
is not a malfunction. After the coolant
temperature warms up, air will flow normally
from the foot outlets.

LINKING INTELLIGENT KEY
The Climate control system settings can be
memorized for each Intelligent Key. For
more details, see “Setting memory function”
(P.3-29).
SERVICING CLIMATE CONTROL
The climate control 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. 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. (See “Capacities and
recommended fluids/lubricants” (P.10-2)
for climate control system refrigerant and
lubricant recommendations.)
Your INFINITI retailer will be able to service
your environmentally friendly climate control
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.
In-cabin microfilter
The climate control system is equipped with
a natural grape seed polyphenol filter which
collects and neutralizes dirt, pollen, dust,
allergens (such as cedar pollen, tick shells)
etc. To make sure that the air conditioner
heats, defogs and ventilates efficiently, re-
place the filter in accordance with the
specified maintenance intervals listed in the
“9. Maintenance and schedules” section. It is
recommended to see an INFINITI retailer 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.

WINDOW ANTENNA
The antenna pattern is printed inside the
rear window.
CAUTION
.Do not place metalized film near the
rear window glass or attach any
metal parts to it. This may cause poor
reception or noise.
. When cleaning the inside of the rear
window, be careful not to scratch or
damage the rear window antenna.
Lightly wipe along the antenna with
a dampened soft cloth.
SATELLITE ANTENNA
There is a satellite antenna on the rear part
of the vehicle roof.
A buildup of ice on the satellite radio
antenna can affect satellite radio perfor-
mance. Remove the ice to restore satellite
radio reception. When installing a car phone or a CB radio in
your vehicle, be sure to observe the follow-
ing cautions, otherwise the new equipment
may adversely affect the electronic control
modules and electronic control system har-
ness.
WARNING
.
A cellular phone should not be used
for any purpose while driving so full
attention may be given to vehicle
operation. Some jurisdictions prohibit
the use of cellular phones while
driving.
. If you must make a call while your
vehicle is in motion, the hands-free
cellular phone operational mode (if so
equipped) is highly recommended.
Exercise extreme caution at all times
so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
. If a conversation in a moving vehicle
requires you to take notes, pull off
the road to a safe location and stop
your vehicle before doing so.
CAUTION
.Keep the antenna as far away as
possible from the electronic control
modules.
. Keep the antenna wire more than 8 in
(20 cm) away from the electronic
control system harness. Do not route
the antenna wire next to any harness.
. Adjust the antenna standing-wave
ratio as recommended by the manu-
facturer.
. Connect the ground wire from the CB
radio chassis to the body.
. For details, it is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer.

NOTE:
If it is not possible to turn the hybrid system
ON by following this procedure, it is
recommended that you contact an INFINITI
retailer immediately.Do not attempt to start the engine by
pushing.
CAUTION
.
Automatic transmission models can-
not be push-started or tow-started.
Attempting to do so may cause
transmission damage.
. Three way catalyst equipped models
should not be started by pushing
since the three way catalyst may be
damaged.
. Never try to start the vehicle by
towing it; when the engine starts,
the forward surge could cause the
vehicle to collide with the tow vehi-
cle.
. Hybrid models cannot be push-
started or tow-started. Attempting
to do so may cause electrical or
transmission damage.
CAUTION
.Do not continue to drive if your
vehicle overheats. Doing so could
cause engine damage or a vehicle fire.
. To avoid the danger of being scalded,
never remove the radiator cap while
the engine is still hot. When the
radiator cap is removed, pressurized
hot water will spurt out, possibly
causing serious injury.
. Do not open the hood if steam is
coming out.
If your vehicle is overheating (indicated by an
extremely high temperature gauge reading),
or if you feel a lack of engine power, detect
abnormal noise, etc., take the following
steps:
1. Move the vehicle safely off the road, apply the parking brake and move the
shift lever to the P (Park) position.
Do not turn the INFINITI Direct Re-
sponse Hybrid
®System off.
2. Turn off the climate control. Open all the windows, move the heater or air condi-
tioner temperature control to maximum
hot and fan control to high speed.
