Operating tips
•In order to improve the heater operation, clear
the snow and ice from the wiper blade and air
inlet in front of the windscreen.
•When the engine coolant temperature and out-
side air temperature are low, the air flow from
the floor outlets may not operate for a maximum
of approximately 150 seconds. However, this is
not a malfunction. After the coolant temperature
has warmed up, the air flow from the floor outlets
will operate normally.
•After parking in the sun, drive for two or three
minutes with the windows open to vent hot air
from the passenger compartment. Then, close
the windows. This will allow the acceleration of
the air conditioner’s cooling operation.
•Keep the windows closed while the air condi-
tioner is operating.
•The air conditioning system should be operated
for approximately 10 minutes at least once a
month. This helps prevent damage to the system
due to lack of lubrication.
Heater and air conditioner, and audio system4-9

•If the coolant temperature warning light comes
on, turn the air conditioner off. For additional
information, see “Engine overheat” in the “6. In
case of emergency” section.
•If the engine coolant reaches an extremely high
temperature, the air conditioning system will au-
tomatically turn off. This may happen for example
if the engine runs at idle speed for a long time on
a hot day.
The sensor
j1 on the fascia helps the system to
maintain a constant temperature inside the cabin.
Do not put anything on or around this sensor.
Air conditioner filter
The air conditioning system is equipped with a filter
which collects dirt, pollen, dust, etc. To make sure
air conditioner heats, defogs, and ventilates effi-
ciently, replace the filter regularly. To replace the fil-
ter, contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow isextremely reduced or when the windows get fog
up easily during air conditioning system opera-
tion.
Servicing air conditioner
The air conditioning system in your NISSAN vehicle
is charged with an environmentally friendly refriger-
ant.
NISSAN GREEN PROGRAM
This refrigerant will not harm the earth’s ozone
layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant are re-
quired when servicing your vehicle’s air conditioner.
Using improper refrigerants or lubricants will cause
severe damage to the air conditioning system. See
“Air conditioning system refrigerant and lubricant
recommendations (where fitted)” in the “9. Techni-
cal information” section of this manual.
A NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop will be able
to service the environmentally “friendly” air condi-
tioning system.The audio system operates when the ignition switch
is in the Acc or ON position. If you want to listen to
the radio or CD while the engine is not running, turn
the ignition switch to the Acc position.Do not use
for an extended period of time with the engine
stopped.
AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
Do not adjust the audio system while driving so
that full attention may be given to vehicle opera-
tion.
Radio
•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
are normally caused by these external influences.
•Using a mobile phone in or near the vehicle may
influence radio reception quality.
•Use the antenna for the best reception.
Compact Disc (CD) player
•During cold weather or rainy days, the player
may malfunction due to the humidity. If this oc-
curs, remove the CD and dehumidify or ventilate
the player completely.
•The player may skip while driving on rough roads.
