Manual air conditioner (Nissan Note E11)

Governing bodies

Air supply regulation

To turn on the fan and set the desired air flow, turn the regulator handle. To increase the air flow, turn the handle clockwise. To decrease the air flow, turn the handle counterclockwise.

Air temperature regulator

This control allows you to change the air temperature. Turn the handle to adjust the air temperature at the outlet of the deflectors.

Air distribution mode switch

This switch allows you to manually select the air flow mode into the cabin as described below:

• Air enters the cabin through the central and side deflectors
• Air enters the cabin through the central and side deflectors, as well as through the lower air vents
• Air enters the cabin primarily through the lower vents
• Air enters the cabin through the windshield deflectors and lower air vents
• Air enters mainly through the windshield deflectors

Air recirculation mode

Move the air flow mode switch to the right, to the position to turn on the air recirculation mode. In this case, the air in the car circulates in a closed circuit inside the car. It is recommended to turn on the recirculation mode when driving on dusty roads or in dense traffic flow in order to isolate the car interior from dust and unpleasant odors of exhaust gases. The recirculation mode also allows you to speed up the temperature reduction in the car interior when the air conditioner is running.

Supply ventilation mode

Move the mode switch to the left to the position in order to turn on the supply ventilation mode.

Operation of the heater

The heater starts working only after the engine has warmed up to operating temperature.

Heating

In heating mode, warm air enters the passenger compartment through the lower air vents.

• 1. Move the air intake mode switch to the left to the position , for normal operation of the heating system.
• 2. Set the air distribution mode switch handle to the position
• 3. Turn the fan speed control to the desired position
• 4. Turn the temperature control knob to the desired angle, between the center and the far right (hot air) position.

To speed up the warming up of a cold car interior, turn on the air recirculation mode (position switch). Remember to turn off the recirculation mode as soon as the air in the cabin has warmed up sufficiently.

Interior ventilation

In ventilation mode, air enters the passenger compartment through the side and central deflectors.

• 1. Move the air intake mode switch to the left to the position , in order to turn on the air recirculation mode
• 2. Set the air distribution mode switch handle to the position .
• 3. Turn the fan speed control to the desired position.
• 4. Turn the air temperature control knob to the desired position.

Glass blowing

This mode is used to remove condensed moisture or frost from glass.

• 1. Move the inflow mode switch to the left position , for normal operation of the heating
• 2. Set the air distribution mode switch handle to the position
• 3. Turn the fan speed control to position 2 or higher
• 4. Turn the temperature control knob to the desired angle, between the center and the far right (hot air) position.

To quickly clear glass from condensation or frost, set the fan performance regulator to position 4, and the air temperature regulator to position

Interior heating and glass blowing

The mode combines interior heating and windshield blowing:

• 1. Move the air intake mode switch to the left to the position
• 2. Set the air distribution mode switch handle to the position
• 3. Turn the fan speed control to position 2 or higher.
• 4. Turn the temperature control knob to the desired angle, between the center and the far right (hot air) position

Air conditioner (if any)

To turn on the air conditioner, start the engine, turn the fan performance control to the desired position and press the "A/C" button. When the air conditioner is running, the air entering the passenger compartment is cooled and dehumidified. To turn off the air conditioner, press this button again.

Cooling the air in the cabin

This mode is used to reduce the air temperature in the cabin and to dehumidify the air entering the cabin:

• 1. Move the air intake mode switch to the left to the position
• 2. Set the air distribution mode switch handle to the position
• 3. Turn the fan speed control to the desired position
• 4. Turn on the air conditioner (the indicator built into the button should light up)
• 5. Turn the air temperature control knob to the desired position.

To quickly cool the interior in hot weather, set the air flow mode switch to the right to the position . After the temperature in the cabin has dropped to a comfortable level, do not forget to switch the system to the supply ventilation mode (move the supply switch to the position). This will prevent air from stagnating in the cabin and the windows from fogging up.

Heating the interior with pre-dried air

This mode is used to supply dry warm air to the passenger compartment:

• 1. Move the air intake mode switch to the left to the position
• 2. Set the air distribution mode switch handle to the position
• 3. Turn the fan speed control to the desired position
• 4. Turn on the air conditioner (the indicator built into the button should light up),
• 5. Turn the air temperature control knob to the desired position.

Blowing glass with pre-dried air

This mode is used to blow dry air onto glass:

• 1. Move the air intake mode switch to the left to the position
• 2. Set the air distribution mode switch handle to the position
• 3. Turn the fan speed control to the desired position.
• 4. Turn on the air conditioner (the indicator built into the button should light up)
• 5. Turn the air temperature control knob to the desired position

Air distribution in the cabin

The diagrams below show the air flow distribution and climate control positions that ensure maximum efficiency of the heater, air conditioner and windshield defroster.

Note: Do not use recirculation mode for heating or demisting windows.

Air filter for ventilation system (if any)

Air entering the car through the heater or air conditioner is filtered to remove dust, pollen and other contaminants. In order for the ventilation, heating and air conditioning systems to function properly, it is necessary to periodically replace the filter element in accordance with the vehicle maintenance schedule.

The ventilation system air filter is subject to early replacement if the air supply to the cabin has significantly decreased or the windows begin to quickly become covered with condensed moisture when the air conditioner is turned on.

Air Conditioner Maintenance

Air conditioning system in your car (if any) filled with environmentally friendly refrigerant.

Servicing the air conditioner installed in your vehicle requires special equipment for charging with refrigerant and special lubricant. Using the wrong refrigerant or lubricant can cause serious damage to the air conditioning system. The refrigerant and lubricant grades used are listed in the relevant section "Technical information".
