3. Turn the temperature control dial tothe desired position between the
middle and the hot position.
∙ To quickly remove ice or fog from the windows, turn the
fan control dial
to the highest setting and the tempera-
ture control to the full HOT position.
∙ When the
position is selected, the
air conditioner automatically turns on if
the outside temperature is more than
36°F (2°C). This dehumidifies the air
which helps defog the windshield.
The
mode automatically turns off,
allowing outside air to be drawn into the
passenger compartment to further im-
prove the defogging performance. The
recirculation mode cannot be activated
in the
position.

fan control dial to the
desired position.
∙ When the
orare selected,
the air conditioner automatically turns
on if the outside temperature is more
than 36°F (2°C). This dehumidifies the air
which helps defog the windshield.
The
mode automatically turns off,
allowing outside air to be drawn into the
passenger compartment to further im-
prove the defogging performance.
∙ The air conditioner is always on in
mode, regardless of whether the indica-
tor light is on or off.
3. Turn the temperature control dial to the desired position.
Operating tips
∙ Keep the windows closed while the airconditioner is in operation.
∙ Af ter parking in the sun, drive for 2 or 3 minutes with the windows open to
vent hot air from the passenger com-
partment. Then, close the windows.
This allows the air conditioner to cool
the interior more quickly. ∙
The air conditioning system should
be operated for approximately
10 minutes at least once a month.
This helps prevent damage to the
system due to lack of lubrication.
∙ A visible mist may be seen coming from the ventilators in hot, humid conditions
as the air is cooled rapidly. This does not
indicate a malfunction.
∙ If the engine coolant temperature
gauge indicates engine coolant tem-
perature over the normal range, turn
the air conditioner off. For additional
information, refer to “If your vehicle
overheats” in the “In case of emer-
gency ” section of this manual.
AIR FLOW CHARTS
The following charts show the button and
dial positions for MAXIMUM AND QUICK
heating, cooling or defrosting. For addi-
tional information on heating and cooling,
refer to “Heater and air conditioner” in this
section. The air recirculation (
) mode
should always be OFF for heating and
defrosting.

WARNING
∙ The air conditioner cooling functionoperates only when the engine is
running.
∙ Do not leave children or adults who would normally require the assis-
tance of others alone in your vehicle.
Pets should also not be lef t alone.
They could accidentally injure them-
selves 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 inte-
rior air to become stale and the win-
dows to fog up.
Start the engine and operate the controls
to activate the air conditioner.
NOTE: ∙ Odors from inside and outside the ve- hicle can build up in the air conditioner
unit. Odor can enter the passenger
compartment through the vents.

system will continue to operate until the
fan control is turned OFF, the vehicle is
shut off or the A/C button is used to
turn off the compressor even if an air
flow button other than

OPERATING TIPS
∙ When the engine coolant temperatureand 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. Af ter
the coolant temperature warms up, air
flow from the foot outlets will operate
normally.
The sunload sensor, located on the top of
the instrument panel on the driver’s side
1, helps the system maintain a constant
temperature. Do not put anything on or
around this sensor.
REAR SEAT AIR CONDITIONER
To operate the rear air conditioner, the en-
gine must be running.
If the rear seat fan control dial is set to (0),
the air conditioner is turned off. If it is set to
any of the fan speed positions, air is dis-
charged from the rear vents at the corre-
sponding speed.

When the temperature control dial is
turned all the way to the cold setting, the air
flows only from the ceiling vents. When the
temperature control dial is turned all the
way to the hot setting, the air flows only
from the floor vents beneath the second
and third row of seats. When the tempera-
ture control dial is turned to a point be-
tween the coldest and hottest settings, the
air flows from both the floor and ceiling
vents.The air conditioner system in your NISSAN
vehicle is charged with a refrigerant de-
signed with the environment in mind.
This refrigerant does not harm the
earth’s ozone layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant
is required when servicing your NISSAN air
conditioner. Using improper refrigerants or
lubricants will cause severe damage to
your air conditioner system. For additional
information, refer to “Air conditioner sys-
tem refrigerant and oil recommendations”
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 conditioner system.
WARNING
The air conditioner system contains
refrigerant under high pressure. To
avoid personal injury, any air condi-
tioner service should be done only by
an experienced technician with proper
equipment.
RADIO
With the ignition placed in the ACC or ON po-
sition, press the
(power) or ON•OFF but-
ton to turn the radio on. If you listen to the
radio with the engine not running, the ignition
should be placed in the ACC position.
Radio reception is affected by station sig-
nal strength, distance from radio transmit-
ter, buildings, bridges, mountains and other
external influences. Intermittent changes
in reception quality normally are caused by
these external influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the vehicle
may influence radio reception quality.
Radio reception
Your NISSAN radio system is equipped with
state-of-the-art electronic circuits to en-
hance radio reception. These circuits are
designed to extend reception range, and to
enhance the quality of that reception.
However, there are some general charac-
teristics of both FM and AM radio signals
that can affect radio reception quality in a
moving vehicle, even when the finest
equipment is used. These characteristics
are completely normal in a given reception
area and do not indicate any malfunction
in your NISSAN radio system.
