OPERATING TIPS

● When the engine coolant temperature and

outside air temperature are low, the air flow

from the foot outlets may not operate for a

maximum of 150 seconds. However, this is

not a malfunction. After the coolant tempera-

ture warms up, air flow from the foot outlets

will operate normally.

The sunload sensor, located on the top of the

instrument panel on the driver’s side, helps the

system maintain a constant temperature. Do not

put anything on or around this sensor.

The air conditioner system in your NISSAN ve-

hicle is charged with a refrigerant designed with

the environment in mind.
This refrigerant does not harm the earth’s

ozone layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant is re-

quired when servicing your NISSAN air condi-

tioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubricants

will cause severe damage to your air conditioner

system. See “Air conditioner system refrigerant

and oil recommendations” in the “Technical and

consumer information” section of this manual.
A NISSAN dealer is able to service your “environ-

mentally friendly” air conditioning system.

WARNING

The air conditioner system contains re-

frigerant under high pressure. To avoid

personal injury, any air conditioner ser-

vice should be done only by an experi-

enced technician with proper equipment.
