IN-CABIN MICROFILTER

The air conditioning system is equipped

with an in-cabin microfilter which collects

dirt, dust, etc. To make sure the air

conditioner heats, defogs, and ventilates

efficiently, replace the filter in accordance

with the maintenance schedule in the “9.

Maintenance and schedules” section of

this manual. It is recommended to see a

NISSAN dealer or GT-R certified NISSAN

dealer to replace the filter.

The filter should be replaced if air flow
