CAUTION
• Never use benzine, thinner, or any similar material.
• Small dirt particles can be abrasive and damaging to the leather sur-
faces (if so equipped) and should be
removed promptly. Do not use
saddle soap, car waxes, polishes,
oils, cleaning fluids, solvents, deter-
gents or ammonia-based cleaners
as they may damage the leather’s
natural finish.
• Never use fabric protectors unless recommended by the manufacturer.
• Do not use glass or plastic cleaner on meter or gauge lens covers. It
may damage the lens cover.
AIR FRESHENERS
Most air fresheners use a solvent that
could affect the vehicle interior. If you use
an air freshener, take the following precau-
tions:
• Hanging-type air fresheners can cause
permanent discoloration when they con-
tact vehicle interior surfaces. Place the air
freshener in a location that allows it to
hang free and not contact an interior
surface.
• Liquid-type air fresheners typically clip on the vents. These products can cause im-
mediate damage and discoloration when
spilled on interior surfaces.
Carefully read and follow the manufacturer’s
instructions before using air fresheners.
FLOOR MATS (IF SO EQUIPPED)
WARNING
To avoid potential pedal interference
that may result in a collision, injury or
death:
• NEVER place a floor mat on top of another floor mat in the driver front
position or install them upside down
or backwards.
• Use only Genuine NISSAN floor mats, or equivalent floor mats, that are
specifically designed for use in your
vehicle model and model year.

AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
REFRIGERANT AND LUBRICANT
RECOMMENDATIONS
The air conditioning system in your
NISSAN vehicle must be charged with the
refrigerant, HFC-134a (R-134a), and the
compressor oil, ND-OIL11 (with heater
pump), AE10 (without heater pump) or
the equivalent.
CAUTION
The use of any other refrigerant or oil
will cause severe damage to the air
conditioning system and will require
the replacement of all air conditioner
system components. The refrigerant, HFC-134a (R-134a), in your
NISSAN vehicle will not harm the earth’s
ozone layer. Although this refrigerant does
not affect the earth’s atmosphere, certain
governmental regulations require the re-
covery and recycling of any refrigerant dur-
ing automotive air conditioning system
service. A NISSAN certified LEAF dealer has
the trained technicians and equipment
needed to recover and recycle your air con-
ditioning system refrigerant.
It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer when servicing your
air conditioning system.
