WARNING
.The heater and air conditioner oper-
ate only when the engine is running.
. Never leave children or adults who
would normally require the support
of others alone in the vehicle. Pets
should not be left alone either. They
could unknowingly activate switches
or controls and inadvertently become
involved in a serious accident and
injure themselves. 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.
. Do not adjust the heating and air
conditioning controls while driving so
that full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
The heater and air conditioner operate when
the engine is running. The air blower will
operate even if the engine is turned off and
the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position.

SERVICING AIR CONDITIONER
WARNING
The air conditioner contains refrigerant
under high pressure. To avoid personal
injury, any air conditioner service should
be done only by an experienced techni-
cian with the proper equipment.
The air conditioner 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, it may contribute in a
small part to global warming.
Special charging equipment and lubricant
are required when servicing your vehicle’s air
conditioner. Using improper refrigerants or
lubricants will cause severe damage to the
air conditioner system. (See “Air conditioning
system refrigerant and lubricant recommen-
dations” (P.10-7).)
An INFINITI retailer will be able to service your environmentally friendly air conditioner
system.
In-cabin microfilter
With Advanced Climate Control system:
The air conditioning system is equipped with
a natural grape seed polyphenol filter which
collects and neutralizes dirt, pollen, dust, etc.
To make sure that the air conditioner heats,
defogs and ventilates efficiently, replace the
filter in accordance with the specified main-
tenance intervals listed in the separate
maintenance booklet. To replace the filter,
contact 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.
Without Advanced Climate Control system:
The air conditioning system is equipped with
an in-cabin microfilter that collects dirt,
pollen, dust, etc.
To make sure that the air conditioner heats,
defogs and ventilates efficiently, replace the
filter in accordance with the specified main-
tenance schedule in the separate mainte-
nance booklet. To replace the filter, contact
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.

could cause failure or malfunction.
. Do not alter, remove or paint the front
bumper. It is recommended you contact
an INFINITI retailer before customizing
or restoring the front bumper.

1. This device may not cause harmful
interference, and
2. This device must accept any interfer-
ence received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
FCC Warning
Changes or modification not expressly ap-
proved by the party responsible for com-
pliance could void the user’s authority to

CAUTION
During the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km),
follow these recommendations to obtain
maximum engine performance and en-
sure the future reliability and economy
of your new vehicle.
Failure to follow these recommendations
may result in shortened engine life and
reduced engine performance.
. Avoid driving for long periods at constant
speed, either fast or slow. Do not run the
engine over 4,000 rpm.
. Do not accelerate at full throttle in any
gear.
. Avoid quick starts.
. Avoid hard braking as much as possible. Follow these easy-to-use Fuel Efficient
Driving Tips to help you achieve the most
fuel economy from your vehicle.
1. Use smooth accelerator and brake pedal
application.
.Avoid rapid starts and stops..Use smooth, gentle accelerator andbrake application whenever possible.
.Maintain constant speed while com-muting and coast whenever possible.
2. Maintain constant speed.
.Look ahead to try and anticipate and minimize stops.
.Synchronizing your speed with traffic
lights allows you to reduce your
number of stops.
.Maintaining a steady speed can mini-mize red light stops and improve fuel
efficiency.
3. Use air conditioning (A/C) at higher vehicle speeds.
.Below 40 MPH (64 km/h), it is moreefficient to open windows to cool the
vehicle due to reduced engine load.
.Above 40 MPH (64 km/h), it is moreefficient to use A/C to cool the
vehicle due to increased aerodynamic
drag.
.Recirculating the cool air in the cabinwhen the A/C is on reduces cooling
load.

Air conditioning system refrigerant ———HFC-134a (R-134a)
For additional information, see “Vehicle identification” (P.10-11) for air conditioner specification

Technical and consumer information10-3
Oil viscosity:
The engine oil viscosity or thickness changes
with temperature. Because of this, it is
important that the engine oil viscosity be
selected based on the temperatures at which
the vehicle will be operated before the next
oil change. Choosing an oil viscosity other
than that recommended could cause serious
engine damage.
Selecting the correct oil filter:
Your new vehicle is equipped with a high-
quality genuine NISSAN oil filter. When
replacing, use the genuine oil filter or its
equivalent for the reason described in
change intervals.
Change intervals:
The oil and oil filter change intervals for your
engine are based on the use of the specified
quality oils and filters. Oil and filter other
than the specified quality, or oil and filter
change intervals longer than recommended
could reduce engine life. Damage to engines
caused by improper maintenance or use of
incorrect oil and filter quality and/or vis-
cosity is not covered by the new INFINITI
vehicle limited warranties.
Your engine was filled with a high quality
engine oil when it was built. You do not have
to change the oil before the first recom-
mended change interval. Oil and filterchange intervals depend upon how you use
your vehicle.
AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM RE-
FRIGERANT AND LUBRICANT
RECOMMENDATIONS
The air conditioning system in your INFINITI
vehicle must be charged with the refriger-
ant HFC-134a (R-134a) and the lubricant,
NISSAN A/C system oil PAG or the exact
equivalents.
CAUTION
The use of any other refrigerant or
lubricant may cause severe damage to
the air conditioning system and may
require the replacement of all air condi-
tioner system components.
The refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) in your
INFINITI vehicle will not harm the earth’s
ozone layer. Although this refrigerant does
not affect the earth’s atmosphere, certain
governmental regulations require the recov-
ery and recycling of any refrigerant during
automotive air conditioning system service.
Your INFINITI retailer has the trained tech-
nicians and equipment needed to recover
and recycle your air conditioning system refrigerant.
It is recommended you visit an INFINITI
retailer when servicing your air conditioning
system.
