2019 INFINITI QX60 engine

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 com-
partment through the vents.
∙ When parking, set the heater and air
conditioner controls to turn off air recir-
culation to allow fresh air into the pas-
senger compartment. This should help
reduce odors inside the vehicle.
AUTOMATIC OPERATION
Cooling and/or dehumidified
heating (AUTO)
This mode may be used all year round as the
system automatically works to keep a con-
stant temperature. Air flow distribution, in-
take air control, and fan speed are also con-
trolled automatically.
1. Press the AUTO button on. (The indica- tor on the button will illuminate and
AUTO will be displayed.) 2. Operate the driver’s side temperature
control buttons.
∙ Adjust the temperature display to about 75°F (24°C) for normal operation.
∙ The temperature of the passenger com- partment will be maintained automati-
cally. Air flow distribution, intake air con-
trol, and fan speed are also controlled
automatically.
∙ 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.
Dehumidified defrosting or
defogging
1. Press thefront defroster button
on. (The indicator light on the button will
come on.)
2. Operate the temperature control but- tons to set the desired temperature.
∙ To quickly remove ice from the outside of the windows, use the
fan speed
control buttons to set the fan speed to
maximum. ∙ As soon as possible after the windshield
is clean, press the AUTO button to return
to the automatic mode.
∙ When the
front defroster button is
pressed, the air conditioner will auto-
matically be turned on at outside tem-
peratures above 36°F (2°C). The air recir-
culate mode automatically turns off,
allowing outside air to be drawn into the
passenger compartment to further im-
prove the defogging performance.
Remote Engine Start with
Intelligent Climate Control
(if so equipped)
Vehicles equipped with automatic climate
controls and Remote Engine Start function
may go into automatic heating or cooling
mode when Remote Engine Start is activated
depending on outside and cabin tempera-
tures. During this period, the climate control
display and buttons will be inoperable until
the ignition switch is turned on. In Remote
Engine Start defrosting mode, the rear win-
dow defroster and heated steering wheel (if
so equipped) may be activated automatically.

OPERATING TIPS
The sunload sensor, located on the top driv-
er’s side of the instrument panel, helps the
system maintain a constant temperature. Do
not put anything on or around this sensor.∙ When the climate system is in automatic
operation and the engine coolant tem-
perature and outside air temperature are
low, the air flow outlet may default to
defroster mode for a maximum of 2 min-
utes 30 seconds. This is not a malfunc-
tion. After the engine coolant tempera-
ture warms up, the air flow outlet will
return to foot mode and operation will
continue normally.
∙ When the outside and interior cabin tem- peratures are moderate to high, the in-
take setting may default to turn off air
recirculation to allow fresh air into the
passenger compartment. You may notice
air flow from the foot mode vent outlets
for a maximum of 15 seconds. This is not
a malfunction. After the initial warm air is
expelled, the intake will return to auto-
matic control, air flow outlet will return to
previous settings, and operation will con-
tinue normally. To exit, press any climate
control button.
∙ Keep the moonroof (if so equipped) closed while the air conditioner is in op-
eration. ∙ If you feel that the air flow mode you
have selected and the outlets the air is
coming out do not match, select the
mode.
∙ When you change the air flow mode, you may feel air flow from the feet vents for
just a moment. This is not a malfunction.

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 acciden-
tally 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.
