3. You can individually set driver’s andfront passenger’s side temperature us-
ing each temperature control dial.
When the DUAL button is pressed or
passenger’s side temperature dial is
turned, the DUAL indicator will come
on. To turn off the passenger’s side
temperature control, press the DUAL
button.
Remote Hybrid Start with
Intelligent Climate Control (if so
equipped)
Vehicles equipped with automatic climate
controls and Remote Hybrid Start function
may go into automatic heating or cooling
mode when Remote Hybrid Start is acti-
vated depending on outside and cabin
temperatures. During this period, the cli-
mate control display and buttons will be
inoperable until the ignition switch is
turned on. In Remote Hybrid Start defrost-
ing mode, the rear window defroster and
heated steering wheel (if so equipped) may
be activated automatically.
Voice Recognition logic (if so
equipped)
When the climate control system is on, the
fan speed may be automatically lowered
so that commands are more easily recog-
nized. Fan speed can be adjusted using
the
fan speed control buttons, if de-
sired.
MANUAL OPERATION
Fan speed control
Press thefan speed control buttons
to manually control the fan speed.
Press the AUTO button to return to auto-
matic control of the fan speed.
Temperature control dial
The temperature control dial allows you to
adjust the temperature of the outlet air. To
lower the temperature, turn the dial to the
lef t. To increase the temperature, turn the
dial to the right. Temperature can be ad-
justed on the driver’s and passenger’s side.
Air recirculation
Press theair recirculation button to
recirculate interior air inside the vehicle.
The
indicator light on the button will
come on.
The air recirculation cannot be activated
when the air conditioner is in the
front defrosting mode.
When the outside temperature exceeds
70°F (21°C), the air conditioning system may
default to air recirculation mode automati-
cally to reduce overall power consumption.
To exit air recirculation mode, select the
fresh air intake button (indicator will turn
off ) to enter fresh air mode.
Fresh air intake
Press thefresh air intake button to
draw outside air into the passenger com-
partment.

Automatic intake air control
In the AUTO mode, the intake air will be
controlled automatically. When the outside
temperature exceeds 70°F (21°C), the air
conditioning system may default to air re-
circulation mode automatically to reduce
overall power consumption. To exit air re-
circulation mode, deselect the air recircula-
tion button (indicator will turn off ) to enter
fresh air mode.
To manually control the intake air, press
the
air recirculation button
or
fresh air intake button. To return to
the automatic control mode if
the
fresh air indicator is illuminated,
press and hold the
fresh air intake
button for about 2 seconds. The fresh air
indicator and air recirculation indicator
lights will flash twice, and then the intake air
will be controlled automatically. To return
to the automatic control mode if
the
air recirculation icon is illumi-
nated, press and hold the
air recircu-
lation button for about 2 seconds.
The
air recirculation indicator
and
fresh air intake indicator lights
will flash twice and the intake air will be
controlled automatically.
Air conditioner button
The button is provided only on vehicles
equipped with an air conditioner.
Start the hybrid system, turn the fan con-
trol dial to the desired position and push
the
button to turn on the air condi-
tioner. The indicator light comes on when
the air conditioner is operating. To turn off
the air conditioner, push the
button
again.
The air conditioner cooling function op-
erates only when the hybrid system is
running.
Air flow control
Pressing the MODE button manually con-
trols air flow and selects the air outlet:
— Air flows mainly from center
and side vents.
— Air flows mainly from centerand side vents and foot outlets.
— Air flows mainly from foot out-lets and partly from defroster.
— Air flows mainly from defrosterand foot outlets.
To turn system off
Press the ON-OFF button.

3.Use Air Conditioning (A/C) at Higher
Vehicle Speeds
∙ Below 40 mph (64 km/h), it is more efficient to open windows to cool the
vehicle due to reduced engine load.
∙ Above 40 mph (64 km/h), it is more efficient to use A/C to cool the vehicle
due to increased aerodynamic drag.
∙ Recirculating the cool air in the cabin when the A/C is on reduces cooling
load.
4. Drive at Economical Speeds and Dis-
tances
∙ Observing the speed limit and not exceeding 60 mph (97 km/h) (where
legally allowed) can improve fuel effi-
ciency due to reduced aerodynamic
drag.
∙ Maintaining a safe following distance behind other vehicles reduces un-
necessary braking.
∙ Safely monitoring traffic to anticipate changes in speed permits reduced
braking and smooth acceleration
changes.
∙ Select a gear range suitable to road conditions. 5.
Use Cruise Control
∙ Using cruise control during highway driving helps maintain a steady
speed.
∙ Cruise control is particularly effective in providing fuel savings when driving
on flat terrains.
6. Plan for the Shortest Route
∙ Utilize a map or navigation system to determine the best route to save
time.
7. Avoid Idling
∙ Shutting off your hybrid system when safe for stops exceeding 30–60 sec-
onds saves fuel and reduces emis-
sions.
8. Buy an Automated Pass for Toll
Roads
∙ Automated passes permit drivers to use special lanes to maintain cruis-
ing speed through the toll and avoid
stopping and starting. 9.
Winter Warm Up
∙ Limit idling time to minimize impact to fuel economy.
∙ Vehicles typically need no more than 30 seconds of idling at start-up to
effectively circulate the engine oil be-
fore driving.
∙ Your vehicle will reach its ideal oper- ating temperature more quickly
while driving versus idling.
10. Keeping your Vehicle Cool
∙ Park your vehicle in a covered parking area or in the shade whenever pos-
sible.
∙ When entering a hot vehicle, opening the windows will help to reduce the
inside temperature faster, resulting in
reduced demand on your A/C sys-
tem.

FUEL RECOMMENDATION
Use unleaded regular gasoline with an oc-
tane rating of at least 87 AKI (Anti-Knock
Index) number (Research octane number
91).
CAUTION
∙ Only vehicles with the E-85 filler door
label can operate on E-85. Fuel system
or other damage can occur if E-85 is
used in vehicles that are not designed
to run on E-85.
∙ Using a fuel other than that specified could adversely affect the emission
control system, and may also affect
the warranty coverage. ∙ Under no circumstances should a
leaded gasoline be used, because this
will damage the three-way catalyst.
∙ Do not use a fuel containing more than 15% ethanol in your vehicle. Your
vehicle is not designed to run on a fuel
containing more than 15% ethanol.
Using a fuel containing more than 15%
ethanol in a vehicle not specifically
designed for a fuel containing more
than 15% ethanol can adversely affect
the emission control devices and sys-
tems of the vehicle. Damage caused
by such fuel is not covered by the
NISSAN New Vehicle Limited Warranty. ∙ Do not use fuel that contains the oc-
tane booster methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl (MMT). Using
fuel containing MMT may adversely
affect vehicle performance and ve-
hicle emissions. Not all fuel dispens-
ers are labeled to indicate MMT con-
tent, so you may have to consult your
gasoline retailer for more details.
Note that Federal and California laws
prohibit the use of MMT in reformu-
lated gasoline.
