that you can still see the red indicator
light.
cHold buttons for duration of the program-
ming without interruption.
cRotate your hand-held transmitter end-
over-end and program again. For best
results, place the end opposite the bat-
tery compartment against the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver when
programming.
ROLLING CODES
If your hand held transmitter appears to
train to the Integrated HomeLinkTUniversal
Transceiver, but does not open your garage
door, and your garage door opener was
manufactured after 1995, your garage door
opener may have a Code Protected or
Rolling Code feature. This type of system
will change the code of your garage door
opener every time you open or close your
garage door.
To determine if you have one of these
systems, depress the button on the Inte-
grated HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiverthat you have just programmed. If the LED
on the HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
flashes rapidly for 1 to 2 seconds, then
remains on, your garage door opener has a
rolling code system.
To operate your rolling code garage door
opener from your Integrated HomeLinkT
Universal Transceiver, follow these steps:
1. Program your hand held transmitter to
the Integrated HomeLinkTUniversal
Transceiver by following the procedures
outlined previously (if not yet pro-
grammed).
2. Program your garage door opener re-
ceiver to recognize the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver (The
Integrated HomeLinkTUniversal Trans-
ceiver follows the same procedure to
train to the receiver as your hand held
transmitter did when it was first installed):
a) Remove the cover panel from your
garage door opener receiver. The re-
ceiver should be located by the ga-
rage door opener motor.
b)
Locate the training button on the ga-
rage door opener receiver. The exact
location and color of the button may
AIC1070
Instruments and controls2-29
ZX

vary by garage door opener brand. If
you have difficulty locating the training
button, reference your garage door
opener manual. If you have difficulty
programming your garage door
opener equipped with a rolling code
system to recognize the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver with
the Rolling Code feature, call NISSAN
Consumer Affairs Department.
c) Press the training button on the ga-
rage door opener receiver for 1 to 2
seconds.
d) Return to the Integrated HomeLinkT
Universal Transceiver in the vehicle,
and depress the programmed
HomeLinkTbutton for the duration of
the fast blink on the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver (1
to 2 seconds). Release the button,
and repress to confirm that the system
has trained.
e) Your garage door opener should now
recognize your Integrated HomeLinkT
Universal Transceiver. You may use
either your Integrated HomeLinkTUni-
versal Transceiver or your originalhand held transmitter to open your
garage door.
CLEARING THE PROGRAMMING
INFORMATION
Should you sell your vehicle, be sure to
clear the channels of the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver. To clear
the channels, simultaneously hold down the
outside two buttons (#1 & #3) until the red
indicator light begins to flash rapidly (ap-
proximately 20 seconds). This will clear all
three buttons. Individual buttons cannot be
cleared, but can be reprogrammed at any
time by following the programming proce-
dures described previously.
IF YOUR VEHICLE IS EVER
STOLEN
If your vehicle has been stolen, you should
change the codes of any device that was
programmed into the Integrated HomeLinkT
Universal Transceiver as soon as possible.
Consult the owners manual of each device,
or call the manufacturer or dealer of those
devices.
When your vehicle is recovered, you will
have to reprogram the IntegratedHomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver with
your new transmitter information.

AUTOMATIC OPERATION
Push the AUTOMATIC button and select the
desired temperature. The selected tempera-
ture and AUTO show in the display window.
The EATC heats or cools to achieve the set
temperature.
When in AUTOMATIC and weather conditions
require heat, air is sent to the floor. However,
a feature is included in the EATC to prevent
blowing cold air to the floor if the engine
coolant is not warm enough to allow heating.
In three or four minutes the fan speed gradu-
ally increases and airflow changes to the floor.
If unique conditions exist, such as window
fogging, the five override buttons allow spe-
cific airflow selection. The thumbwheel al-
lows you to adjust the fan speed to suit your
needs.
Temperature selection
TheTEMPbutton on the left side of
the control panel is for temperature selec-
tion. The
side lowers the set tempera-
ture, and theside raises the set tem-
perature. Press and hold either side of the
button to rapidly change the temperature
setting in one degree increments to either
65ÉF (18ÉC) or 85ÉF (29ÉC). If you wantcontinuous maximum cooling, push the
side of the TEMP button until 60ÉF
(16ÉC) shows in the display window. The
EATC cools at maximum and disregards the
60ÉF (16ÉC) setting until a warmer tempera-
ture is selected. If you want continuous
maximum heating, push the
side of the
TEMP button until 90ÉF (32ÉC) shows in the
display window. The EATC provides maxi-
mum heat regardless of the 90ÉF (32ÉC)
setting until a cooler temperature is se-
lected.
Fan speed and thumbwheel
Your EATC automatically adjusts the fan
speed to the existing conditions. To control
the fan speed yourself, use the thumbwheel
located at the extreme right side of the
EATC control panel. Using the thumbwheel
cancels the automatic fan speed control,
and causes a
to appear in the display
window. Rotate the thumbwheel up for HI
speeds and down for LO speeds.
To return to auto fan control, press the
AUTOMATIC button.
AIR CONTROL BUTTONS
Your EATC has five buttons which allow you
to make special selections. The buttons aregrouped in the middle of the EATC panel
and allow you to determine airflow location.
Pressing any of the air control buttons
changes airflow location only, and does not
affect the ability of the system to control
temperature or fan speed. Return to fully
automatic operation by pushing the AUTO-
MATIC button.
Push this button for airflow to the front and
rear floor outlets and windshield at the same
time. The
indicator light comes on,
and the display window shows the set tem-
perature.
Press this button to obtain maximum airflow
to the windshield. Adjust the temperature
setting as required for defrosting. The
indicator light comes on, and the
display window shows the set temperature.
When the outside temperature is about
45ÉF (7ÉC) or above, the air is dehumidified
to prevent window fogging.

the display window. When the indicator bar
is in the center position the sound is equally
distributed between the front and rear
speakers.
Following fader adjustment, the display win-
dow shows the current setting for three
seconds, then returns to the display prior to
adjustment.
COMP button
Press this button to activate the compres-
sion function. This reduces the dynamic
range, which provides the listener with a
more consistent level of volume. The dis-
play window shows a C when the COMP
button is pushed.
CASSETTE TAPE OPERATION
Turn the ignition to ACC or ON, and care-
fully insert a cassette tape into the tape
door. The cassette tape automatically pulls
into the player and begins to play.
When a casssette is inserted into the audio
system, the word TAPE and a cassette side
symbol (either one or two) illuminates in the
display.
If the radio is already operating it automati-
cally turns off and the cassette tape begins
to play. The cassette tape automatically
changes direction to play the other side
when the first side is complete.
Precautions on cassette player op-
eration
cTo maintain good quality sound, Nis-
san recommends using cassette tapesof 60 minutes or shorter in length.
cCassette tapes should be removed
from the player when not in use. Store
cassettes in their protective cases and
away from direct sunlight, heat, dust,
moisture, and magnetic sources.
cDirect sunlight can cause the cassette
to become deformed. The use of de-
formed cassettes may cause the cas-
sette to jam in the player.

which are peeling and loose. If used
the label could jam in the player.
cIf a cassette has loose tape, insert a
pencil through one of the cassette
hubs and rewind the tape firmly
around the hubs. Loose tape may
cause tape jamming and wavering
sound quality.
cOver a period of time, the playback
head, capstan and pinch roller may
collect a tape coating residue as the
tape is played. This residue accumu-
lation can cause weak or wavering
sound, and should be removed peri-
odically with a head cleaning tape. If
