WARNING
The air conditioner cooling function
operates only when the engine is
running.
On hot, sunny days, temperatures in
a closed vehicle could quickly be-
come high enough to cause severe or
possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals. Do not leave children or
adults who would normally requirethe assistance of others in your ve-
hicle. Unattended pets should also
not be left alone.
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.
Start the engine and operate the controls to
activate the air conditioner.
NOTE:
In your vehicle, the air conditioner system
is designed to automatically activate the
cooling function when operating the air
flow control dial, the fan speed control dial
or the air intake button. (The indicator light
on the A/C button will illuminate.) Push the
A/C button off when the cooling function is
not necessary.

Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of the
exterior lights in the rain or in a car wash. A
temperature difference between the inside and
the outside of the lens causes the fog. This is not
a malfunction. If large drops of water collect
inside the lens, contact a NISSAN dealer.
