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 malfunc-
tion. After the coolant temperature
warms up, the air flow from the foot
outlets will operate normally.
The sensors
andlocated on the
instrument panel help maintain a con-
stant temperature. Do not put anything
on or around the sensors.
LINKING INTELLIGENT KEY (if so
equipped)
The air conditioner system settings can
be memorized for each Intelligent Key.
For more details, see “Setting memory
function” (P.3-42).
IN-CABIN MICROFILTER
The air conditioner system is equipped
with an in-cabin microfilter which collects
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.
Maintenance and schedules” section. It is
recommended to see a NISSAN dealer to
replace the filter.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow decreases significantly or if win-
dows fog up easily when operating the
heater or air conditioner.
SERVICING AIR CONDITIONER
The air conditioner system in your NISSAN
is charged with a refrigerant designed
with the environment in mind.
This re-
frigerant will not harm the earth’s
ozone layer. However, special charging
equipment and lubricant are required
when servicing your NISSAN air condi-
tioner. Using improper refrigerants or
lubricants will cause severe damage to
your air conditioner system. (See “Capa-
cities and recommended fluids/lubri-
cants” (P.10-2) for air conditioner system
refrigerant and lubricant recommenda-
tions.)
Your NISSAN dealer will be able to service
your environmentally friendly air condi-
tioner system.
WARNING
The system contains refrigerant un-
der high pressure. To avoid personal
injury, any air conditioner service
should be done only by an experi-
enced technician with the proper
equipment.
WINDOW ANTENNA
The antenna pattern is printed inside the
rear side glass.
CAUTION
. Do not place metalized film near
the 3rd row seat window or at-
tach any metal parts to it. This
may cause poor reception or
noise.
. When cleaning the inside of the
rear side window, be careful not
to scratch or damage the rear
side window antenna. Lightly
wipe along the antenna with a
dampened soft cloth.

5-80Starting and driving
safe vehicle distance if:
.The chime sounds.
. The vehicle ahead detection and set
distance indicator blink.
The warning chime may not sound in
some cases when there is a short dis-
tance between vehicles. Some examples
are:
. When the vehicles are traveling at the
same speed and the distance be-
tween vehicles is not changing
. When the vehicle ahead is traveling
faster and the distance between ve-
hicles is increasing
. When a vehicle cuts in near your
vehicle
The warning chime will not sound when:
. Your vehicle approaches other vehi-
cles that are parked or moving slowly.
. The accelerator pedal is depressed,
overriding the system.
NOTE:
The approach warning chime may
sound and the system display may
blink when the radar sensor detects
objects on the side of the vehicle or on
the side of the road. This may cause the
ICC system to decelerate or accelerate
the vehicle. The radar sensor may de-
tect these objects when the vehicle is
driven on winding roads, narrow roads, hilly roads or when entering or exiting a
curve. In these cases you will have to
manually control the proper distance
ahead of your vehicle.
Also, the sensor sensitivity can be af-
fected by vehicle operation (steering
maneuver or driving position in the lane)
or traffic or vehicle condition (for example,
if a vehicle is being driven with some
damage).
Automatic cancellation
A chime sounds under the following
conditions and the control is automati-
cally canceled.
.
When the vehicle ahead is not de-
tected and your vehicle is traveling
below the speed of 15 MPH (24 km/h)
. When the system judges the vehicle is
at standstill
. When the shift lever is not in the D
(Drive) or manual shift mode
. When the parking brake is applied
. When the SNOW mode switch is
pushed on.
. When the 4WD shift switch is in the 4H
or 4L position (for 4WD models)
. When the VDC system is turned off
. When ABS or VDC (including the trac-
tion control system) operates .
When distance measurement be-
comes impaired due to adhesion of
dirt or obstruction to the sensor
. When a wheel slips
. When the radar signal is temporarily
interrupted
