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.

depending on outside and cabin tempera-
tures. During this period, the climate control

When rear climate is off, pressing SYNC will
synchronize only driver’s and front passen-
ger’s climate settings. When rear climate is
on, pressing SYNC will synchronize driver,
front passenger, and rear temperature and
fan settings.
To change climate settings when SYNC is
active (the SYNC indicator is on):∙ The driver’s side temperature control buttons will control the driver, front pas-
senger, and rear (if rear climate is on)
temperatures.
∙ The fan speed control buttons will con- trol the front and rear climate fan speeds.
∙ The front AUTO (automatic) climate con- trol on-off button will activate the front
and rear climate automatic settings.
To exit SYNC: ∙ To remove the front passenger from SYNC, press the passenger’s side tem-
perature control buttons. The driver and
rear settings remain in SYNC until rear is
removed from SYNC. ∙ To remove the rear from SYNC, change
any of the rear climate settings. The
driver and front passenger settings re-
main in SYNC until the front passenger is
removed from SYNC.
∙ To reactivate SYNC press the SYNC but- ton.
To turn system off
Press the OFF button.

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.

4-46Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
Page 433 of 540
Machine compounding or aggressive polish-
ing on a base coat/clear coat paint finish may
dull the finish or leave swirl marks.
REMOVING SPOTS
Remove tar and oil spots, industrial dust, in-
sects, and tree sap as quickly as possible from
the surface of the paint to avoid lasting dam-
age or staining. Special cleaning products are
available at an INFINITI retailer or any auto-
motive accessory store. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for these
products.
UNDERBODY
In areas where road salt is used in winter, it is
necessary to clean the underbody regularly in
order to prevent dirt and salt from building up
and causing the acceleration of corrosion on
the underbody and suspension. Before the
winter period and again in the spring, the
underseal must be checked and, if necessary,
re-treated.
GLASS
Use glass cleaner to remove smoke and dust
film from the glass surfaces. It is normal for
glass to become coated with a film after the
vehicle is parked in the hot sun. Glass cleaner
and a soft cloth will easily remove this film.
CAUTION
When cleaning the inside of the windows,
do not use sharp-edged tools, abrasive
cleaners or chlorine-based disinfectant
cleaners. They could damage the electrical
conductors, radio antenna elements or rear
window defroster elements.
ALUMINUM ALLOY WHEELS
Wash the wheels regularly with a sponge
dampened in a mild soap solution, especially
during winter months in areas where road
salt is used. If not removed, road salt can
discolor the wheels.
CAUTION
Follow the directions below to avoid stain-
ing or discoloring the wheels:
∙ Do not use a cleaner that uses strong acidor alkali contents to clean the wheels.
∙ Do not apply wheel cleaners to the wheels when they are hot. The wheel
temperature should be the same as ambi-
ent temperature.
∙ Rinse the wheel to completely remove the cleaner within 15 minutes after the
cleaner is applied.
CHROME PARTS
Clean all chrome parts regularly with a non-
abrasive chrome polish to maintain the finish.
TIRE DRESSINGS
INFINITI does not recommend the use of tire
dressings. Tire manufacturers apply a coating
to the tires to help reduce discoloration of the
rubber. If a tire dressing is applied to the tires,
it may react with the coating and form a
compound. This compound may come off the
tire while driving and stain the vehicle paint.
If you choose to use a tire dressing, take the
following precautions:
∙ Use a water-based tire dressing. The coating on the tire dissolves more easily
than with an oil-based tire dressing.
∙ Apply a light coat of tire dressing to help prevent it from entering the tire
tread/grooves (where it would be diffi-
cult to remove).
∙ Wipe off excess tire dressing using a dry towel. Make sure the tire dressing is com-
pletely removed from the tire
tread/grooves.
∙ Allow the tire dressing to dry as recom- mended by tire dressing manufacturer.
