Advanced Climate Control System
(ACCS) (if so equipped)
The Advanced Climate Control System (ACCS)
keeps the air inside of the vehicle clean, using the
ion control and the automatic air intake control
with exhaust gas detecting sensor.Ion control (if so equipped)
This unit generates highly concentrated Plasma-
cluster® ions into the air blown from the vents
and reduces odor absorbed into the interior trim.
When the air conditioner is turned on, the system
generates Plasmacluster® ions automatically.
The amount of Plasmacluster® ions increases
according to the amount of air flow. When the air
flow is high,
is displayed on the screen and
when the air flow is low, the indication in the
screen changes to
.
Plasmacluster® and Plasmacluster® ion are
registered trademarks of Sharp Corporation. Exhaust gas/outside odor detection sensor
(if so equipped)
This vehicle is equipped with an exhaust gas detec-
tion sensor. When the automatic intake air control is
ON, the sensor detects industry odors such as pulp
or chemicals, and exhaust gas such as gasoline or
diesel. When such odors or gas are detected, the
system automatically changes from the outside air
circulation mode to the recirculation mode.
When the intake air control button is pressed
under the following conditions, the indicator light
on the
button will illuminate and the ex-
haust gas detection sensor will turn on.
●
The air flow control is not in the front defroster
mode (the indicator light on the
front
defroster button is turned off) .
● The outside temperature is about 32°F (0°C)
or more.
When the automatic intake air control is ON, for
the first 5 minutes, the recirculation mode is
selected to prevent dust, dirt and pollen from
entering the vehicle and cleans the air inside of
the vehicle with positive and negative ions that
are emitted from the vent.
After the 5 minutes, the sensor detects exhaust gas
and automatically alternates between the recircu-
lation mode and outside air circulation mode.

The air conditioner system in your INFINITI 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 INFINITI air condi-
tioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubricants
will cause severe damage to your air conditioner
system. For additional information, refer to “Air
conditioner system refrigerant and oil recommen-
dations” in the “Technical and consumer informa-
tion” section of this manual.
An INFINITI retailer is able to service your “envi-
ronmentally friendly” air conditioning system.
WARNING
The air conditioner system contains refrig-
erant under high pressure. To avoid per-
sonal injury, any air conditioner service
should be done only by an experienced
technician with proper equipment.
RADIO
Place the ignition switch in the ACC or ON
position and press the ON·OFF button to turn the
radio on. If you listen to the radio with the engine
not running, the ignition switch should be placed
in the ACC position.
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external influ-
ences. Intermittent changes in reception quality
normally are caused by these external influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the vehicle
may influence radio reception quality.
Radio reception
Your INFINITI radio system is equipped with
state-of-the-art electronic circuits to enhance ra-
dio reception. These circuits are designed to
extend reception range, and to enhance the qual-
ity of that reception.
However, there are some general characteristics
of both FM and AM radio signals that can affect
radio reception quality in a moving vehicle, even
when the finest equipment is used. These char-
acteristics are completely normal in a given re-
ception area, and do not indicate any malfunction
in your INFINITI radio system.Reception conditions will constantly change be-
cause of vehicle movement. Buildings, terrain,
signal distance and interference from other ve-
hicles can work against ideal reception. De-
scribed below are some of the factors that can
affect your radio reception.
Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to come
from the audio system speakers. Storing the de-
vice in a different location may reduce or elimi-
nate the noise.
FM RADIO RECEPTION
Range: FM range is normally limited to 25 – 30 mi
(40 – 48 km) , with monaural (single channel) FM
having slightly more range than stereo FM. Exter-
nal influences may sometimes interfere with FM
station reception even if the FM station is within
25 mi (40 km) . The strength of the FM signal is
directly related to the distance between the
transmitter and receiver. FM signals follow a line-
of-sight path, exhibiting many of the same char-
acteristics as light. For example, they will reflect
off objects.
Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away from
a station transmitter, the signals will tend to fade
and/or drift.

●Since the spare tire is not equipped with
the TPMS, when a spare tire is mounted
or a wheel is replaced, tire pressure will
not be indicated, the TPMS will not
function and the low tire pressure warn-
ing light will flash for approximately
1 minute. The light will remain on after
1 minute. Have your tires replaced
and/or TPMS system reset as soon as
possible. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
● Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
●
Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol tire
sealant into the tires, as this may cause a
malfunction of the tire pressure sensors.
CAUTION
● The TPMS may not function properly
when the wheels are equipped with tire
chains or the wheels are buried in snow.
● Do not place metalized film or any
metal parts (antenna, etc.) on the win-
dows. This may cause poor reception of
the signals from the tire pressure sen-
sors, and the TPMS will not function
properly.
Some devices and transmitters may temporarily
interfere with the operation of the TPMS and cause
the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate.
Some examples are:
– Facilities or electric devices using similar radio
frequencies are near the vehicle.
– If a transmitter set to similar frequencies is being used in or near the vehicle.
– If a computer (or similar equipment) or a DC/AC converter is being used in or near the
vehicle.
Low tire pressure warning light may illuminate in
the following cases. ● If the vehicle is equipped with a wheel and
tire without TPMS.
● If the TPMS has been replaced and the ID
has not been registered.
● If the wheel is not originally specified by
INFINITI.
