Multi-remote controller system entry Pressing the button on the multi- remote controller unlocks the driver’s door, and recalls the memory settings for both outside mirrors and driver’s seat for that memory position. Two multi-remote control- lers are delivered with the vehicle. They can be programmed with the same memory driver’s seat and mirror positions, or each one can be programmed separately. One multi-remote controller can be programmed for memory driver’s seat and mirror position 1, and the other for memory driver’s seat and mirror position 2.

Memory Driver Seat and Mirror But- tons The memory seat and mirror buttons are located on the driver door. Pressing the memory driver seat and mirror position 1 or position 2 button will recall the memory set- tings for both outside mirrors and driver seat for that memory seat position, provided the vehicle is in P (Park) or N (Neutral). For easy vehicle exit, press memory driver seat and mirror position 1 and position 2 buttons to- gether to move the driver seat fully rearward and fully downward. This function is preset and cannot be changed. Programming Memory Positions 1. Move the driver seat and outside mirrors to the desired position using the manual controls.

2. Push and hold the memory seat and mirror position 1 or position 2 button for at least 3 seconds.

INSIDE MIRROR The night position reduces glare from the headlights of vehicles behind you at night.

WARNING

Use the night position only when nec- essary, because it reduces rear view clarity.

OUTSIDE MIRRORS The outside mirrors operate only when the ignition switch is in the ACC or ON position. Move the switch to select the right or left side mirror, then adjust using the control lever.

WARNING

Objects viewed in the outside mirror on the passenger side are closer than they appear. Be careful when moving to the right. Using only this mirror could

Bi-level heating/cooling The bi-level mode directs air to the side and center vents and to the front and rear floor outlets. Bi-level is also a cooling mode when high sun load conditions are present with cool temperatures. With the A/C system in operation, this mode can be used to cool the passenger’s or driver’s feet under high temperature condi- tions. With the A/C system in operation under high temperature conditions, improved cooling can be obtained by moving the air control dial to the MAX A/C position. 1. Move the air control dial to the

The air recirculation mode automatically turns off, allowing outside air to be drawn into the passenger compartment which helps defog the windshield.

Operating tips c Keep windows and sun roof closed while

the air conditioner is in operation.

c After parking in the sun, drive for two or three minutes with the windows open to vent hot air from the passenger compart- ment. Then, close the windows. This allows the air conditioner to cool the interior more quickly.

c The air conditioning system should be operated for about ten minutes at least once a month. This helps pre- vent damage to the system due to lack of lubrication.

c If the engine coolant temperature gauge exceeds the H (hot) position, turn the air conditioner off. See ‘‘If your vehicle over- heats’’ in the ‘‘In case of emergency’’ section for additional information.

The cabin air filter (if so equipped) requires periodic maintenance. See the ‘‘Do it your- self’’ section for additional information. The Electronic Automatic Temperature Control (EATC) is located at the center of the instrument panel, below the radio. The EATC operates only when the ignition is

turned to the ON position. The EATC maintains the temperature you select and controls the airflow for your com- fort. It also allows you to override the auto- matic operation with manual function selec- tor buttons. To turn the EATC on, push either the AU- TOMATIC button or any of the six function selector buttons: or MAX. To turn the EATC off, press

the OFF button. When you select AUTOMATIC, the system determines fan speed, airflow location and discharge air temperature. When one of the function selector buttons is pressed, your selection determines airflow location only. Fan speed and discharge air temperature remain automatic. You can override fan speed by rotating the vertical thumbwheel the

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 The button on the left side of the control panel is for temperature selec- tion. The side lowers the set tempera- ture, and the side 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 65°F (18°C) or 85°F (29°C). If you want 4-12 Heater, air conditioner and audio systems

continuous maximum cooling, push the the TEMP button until 60°F (16°C) shows in the display window. The EATC cools at maximum and disregards the 60°F (16°C) setting until a warmer tempera- ture is selected. If you want continuous maximum heating, push the side of the TEMP button until 90°F (32°C) shows in the display window. The EATC provides maxi- mum heat regardless of the 90°F (32°C) 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 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 flow control Your EATC has five buttons which allow you to make special selections. The buttons are

SERVICING AIR CONDITIONING

The air conditioning system in your NISSAN vehicle is charged with a refrigerant de- signed with the environment in mind. This refrigerant does not harm the earth’s ozone layer. Special charging equipment and lubricant are required when servicing your NISSAN air conditioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubricants causes severe damage to your air conditioning system. See ‘‘Air condition- ing system refrigerant and lubricant recom- mendations’’ in the ‘‘Technical and con- sumer information’’ section of this manual. An authorized NISSAN dealer is able to service your environmentally ‘‘friendly’’ air conditioning system.

WARNING

The air conditioner system contains refrigerant under high pressure. To avoid personal injury, any air condi- tioner service should be done by an experienced technician with proper equipment.

c Direct sunlight can cause the cassette to become deformed. The use of de- formed cassettes may cause the cas- sette to jam in the player.

c Do not use cassettes with loose labels which are peeling and loose. If used the label could jam in the player.

c If 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.

c Over 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 the residue is not removed periodi- cally, the player may need to be dis- assembled for cleaning.

ANTENNA

The manual antenna on your vehicle re- mains in the up position at all times. The antenna cannot be shortened, but can be removed. When you need to remove the antenna, turn the antenna rod counterclock- wise. To install the antenna rod, turn the antenna clockwise. Tighten the antenna rod to speci- fication using a suitable tool such as a open-end wrench. The antenna rod tighten- ing specification is 3.4 - 3.6 Nzm (30 - 32
in-lb). Do not use pliers to tighten the an- tenna as they can leave marks on the an- tenna surface. The antenna rod can not be hand tightened to the proper specification.

CAUTION

Always properly tighten the antenna rod during installation or the antenna rod may break during vehicle operation.
