to set the desired temperature.
INFO:
. To quickly remove ice from the outside of
the windows, set the fan speed to the
maximum.
. As soon as possible after the windshield
is clean, push to return to the
auto mode.
. When <
>is pushed, the air conditioner
will automatically be turned on at out-
side temperatures above 23°F (−5°C) to
defog the windshield, and the air recir-
culate mode will automatically be turned
off.
Outside air is drawn into the passenger
compartment to improve the defogging performance.
ADVANCED CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM (if so equipped)
The Advanced Climate Control System
keeps the air inside of the vehicle clean,
using the automatic air circulation control
with the exhaust gas/outside odor detecting
sensor and with ion control.
[Auto Recirc]:
Touch to turn on the automatic air
recirculation mode.
Plasmacluster® icon:
Indicates the Plasmacluster® ion emis-
sion status.
Automatic air recirculation control with the
exhaust gas/outside odor detection sensor:
The Advanced Climate Control system
comes with an exhaust gas detection/out-
side odor sensor. When the automatic air
circulation control is activated, the sensor
detects odors outside the vehicle such as
pulp or chemicals, and exhaust gas such as
gasoline or diesel. When such odors or gases
are detected, the display and the system
automatically change from the fresh air
mode to the recirculation mode.
When the automatic air circulation control
mode is on, for the first 5 minutes, the air
recirculation mode is selected to prevent
dust, dirt and pollen from entering the
vehicle and to clean the air inside of the
vehicle.
After 5 minutes, the sensor detects exhaust
gas and automatically alternates between
the air recirculation mode and the fresh air
mode.INFO:
The automatic air recirculation mode can be
activated under the following conditions. . The air flow control is not in the
windshield defrosting mode (the indica-

tor light on<>is turned off).
. The outside temperature is approxi-
mately 32 °F (0 °C) or above.
Ion control:
The Advanced Climate Control system unit
generates highly concentrated Plasmaclus-
ter® ions into the air blown from the
ventilators to reduce odor absorbed into
the interior trim and to suppress airborne
bacteria. The high-density Plasmacluster®
ions also have a proven skin moisture
preserving effect.
The Plasmacluster® icon on the CLIMATE
screen indicates the status of the Plas-
macluster® ion emission from the system
and changes with the amount of the air flow.OPERATING TIPS
. The sensorsandon the instrument
panel helps maintain a constant tem-
perature. Do not put anything on or
around these sensors.
. 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.
. 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.
IN-CABIN MICROFILTER
With Advanced Climate Control system:
The Climate Control system is equipped with
a natural grape seed polyphenol filter that
collects and neutralizes dirt, pollen, dust,
allergens (such as pollen, tick shells), etc. To
make sure that the air conditioner heats,
defogs and ventilates efficiently, replace the
filter in accordance with the maintenance
schedule in the vehicle Owner’s Manual. To
replace the filter, it is recommended you visit
an INFINITI retailer.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow
decreases significantly or if windows fog up
easily when operating the heater or air
conditioner.

SONAR SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the sonar function. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in serious
injury or death.
. Inclement weather or ultrasonic
sources such as an automatic car
wash, a truck’s compressed-air brakes
or a pneumatic drill may affect the function of the system, including re-
duced performance or a false activa-
tion.
. The system is not designed to prevent
contact with small or moving objects.
. The system will not detect small
objects below the bumper, and may
not detect objects close to the bum-
per or on the ground.
. The system may not detect the fol-
lowing objects:
— Fluffy objects such as snow, cloth, cotton, grass or wool.
— Thin objects such as rope, wire or chain.
— Wedge-shaped objects.
. If your vehicle sustains damage to the
bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned or
bent, the sensing zone may be altered
causing inaccurate measurement of
objects or false alarms.
CAUTION
Excessive noise (such as audio system
volume or an open vehicle window) will
interfere with the tone and it may not be
heard.
System temporarily unavailable
When the amber markers are displayed at
the corners of the vehicle icon and the
function cannot be activated from the
Camera/Sonar setting menu (the setting
items are grayed out), the sonar system
may be malfunctioning.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Keep the surface of the sonar sensors
(located on the front and rear bumper
fascia) free from accumulations of snow,
ice and dirt. Do not scratch the surface of
the sonar sensors when cleaning. If the
sensors are covered, the accuracy of the
sonar function will be diminished.

GENERAL INFORMATION FOR
NAVIGATION SYSTEM
CURRENT VEHICLE LOCATION
Display of current vehicle location
This navigation system combines the data
obtained from the vehicle (by gyro sensor)
and from GPS (Global Positioning System)
satellites to calculate the current location of
the vehicle. This position is then displayed
throughout route guidance to a destination.
What is GPS (Global Positioning
System)?
GPS is a position detecting system that uses
satellites deployed by the U.S. government.
This navigation system receives radio signals
from three or more different satellites that
orbit 13,049 miles (21,000 km) above the
earth in space, and detect the position of the
vehicle by utilizing the principle of triangula-
tion.
Positioning adjustment:
When the system judges that the vehicle
position is not accurate based on vehicle
speed and gyro sensor data calculations, the
system will automatically adjust the position of the vehicle icon using GPS signals.
Receiving signals from GPS satellites:
The reception of GPS signals can be weak,
depending on the environment. Vehicles in
the following areas/environments may not
receive GPS signals.
*
Inside tunnels or parking garages
*In areas with numerous tall buildings
*Under multi-layered highways
