panel help maintain a constant temperature. Do
not put anything on or around these sensors.
The air conditioning 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 maintenance
schedule in the NISSAN Service and Mainte-
nance Guide. To replace the filter, contact a
NISSAN dealer or GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
The filter should be replaced if air flow is
extremely decreased or when windows fog
up easily when operating heater or air
conditioning system.

special charging equipment and lubricant are
required when servicing your NISSAN air con-
ditioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubri-
cants will cause severe damage to your air
conditioning system. Refer to the vehicle Own-
er’s Manual.
Your NISSAN dealer or GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer will be able to service your environmen-
tally friendly air conditioning system.
