OPERATING TIPS
When the engine coolant temperature and
outside air temperature are low, the air flow
from the foot outlets may not operate.
However, this is not a malfunction. After
the coolant temperature warms up, the air
flow from the foot outlets will operate
normally.
The sensors
andlocated on the instru-
ment panel help maintain a constant tem-
perature. Do not put anything on or around
the sensors.

IN-CABIN MICROFILTER
Models without Advanced Climate Control
System:
The climate control system is equipped with
an in-cabin microfilter which collects dirt,
pollen, dust, etc.
Models with Advanced Climate Control
System:
The climate control system is equipped with
a natural grape seed polyphenol filter which
collects and neutralizes dirt, pollen, dust, etc.
To make sure the air conditioner heats,
defogs, and ventilates efficiently, replace
the filter in accordance with the specified
maintenance intervals listed in the “9. Main-
tenance and schedules” section. If replace-
ment is required, it is recommended you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow
decreases significantly or if windows fog up
easily when operating the heater or air
conditioner.
SERVICING CLIMATE CONTROL
The climate control 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,
special charging equipment and lubricant are
required when servicing your air conditioner.
Using improper refrigerants or lubricants will
cause severe damage to your climate control
system. (See “Capacities and recommended
fluids/lubricants” (P.10-2) for climate con-
trol system refrigerant and lubricant recom-
mendations.)
An INFINITI retailer will be able to service
your environmentally friendly climate control
system.
WARNING
The system contains refrigerant under
high pressure. To avoid personal injury,
any air conditioner service should be
done only by an experienced technician
with the proper equipment.
WINDOW ANTENNA
The antenna pattern is printed inside the 3rd
row seat window.
CAUTION
. Do not place metalized film near the
3rd row seat window or attach any
metal parts to it. This may cause poor
reception or noise.
. When cleaning the inside of the 3rd
row seat window, be careful not to
scratch or damage the 3rd row seat
window antenna. Lightly wipe along
the antenna with a dampened soft
cloth.
ANTENNA

SAA3602
SATELLITE ANTENNA
There is a satellite antenna on the rear part
of the vehicle roof.When installing a car phone or a CB radio in
your vehicle, be sure to observe the follow-
ing cautions, otherwise the new equipment
may adversely affect the electronic control
modules and electronic control system har-
ness.
WARNING
.
A cellular phone should not be used
for any purpose while driving so full
attention may be given to vehicle
operation. Some jurisdictions prohibit
the use of cellular phones while
driving.
. If you must make a call while your
vehicle is in motion, the hands-free
cellular phone operational mode (if so
equipped) is highly recommended.
Exercise extreme caution at all times
so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
. If a conversation in a moving vehicle
requires you to take notes, pull off
the road to a safe location and stop
your vehicle before doing so.
CAUTION
.Keep the antenna as far away as
possible from the electronic control
modules.
. Keep the antenna wire more than 8 in
(20 cm) away from the electronic
control system harness. Do not route
the antenna wire next to any harness.
. Adjust the antenna standing-wave
ratio as recommended by the manu-
facturer.
. Connect the ground wire from the CB
radio chassis to the body.
. For details, it is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer.
