The sensor on the instrument panel helps
maintain a constant temperature. Do not put
anything on or around this sensor.
Servicing air conditioner
The air conditioning system in your NISSAN
vehicle is charged with a new refrigerant de-
signed with the environment in mind.
This new refrigerant will not harm the
earth's ozone layer.
However, special charging equipment and lu-
bricant are required when servicing your NIS-
SAN air conditioner. Using improper refriger-
ants or lubricants will cause severe damage to
your air conditioning system. See AIR CONDI-
TIONING SYSTEM REFRIGERANT AND LU-
BRICANT RECOMMENDATIONS in the
TECHNICAL INFORMATION section of this
manual.
Your NISSAN dealer will be able to service
your environmentally ªfriendlyº air conditioning
system.To turn the radio on, turn the ignition key to
ªACCº or ªONº. If you listen to the radio with
the engine not running, turn the key to the
ªACCº position.
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains, and other external
influences. Intermittent changes in reception
quality normally are caused by these external
influences.
