Nissan X-Trail e-POWER 2023 Owners Manual
7.8.2.1. Automatic operation
Cooling and/or dehumidified heating (AUTO)
This mode may be used all year round as the system automatically works to keep a constant temperature. Air flow distribution and fan speed are also controlled automatically.
Push the <AUTO> button on. (The indicator light on the button will illuminate.)
Turn the temperature control dial on the corresponding side to set the desired temperature.
You can individually set temperatures for the driver’s side and front passenger’s side when the indicator light on the <SYNC> button is not illuminated.
A visible mist may be seen coming from the vents in hot, humid conditions as the air is cooled rapidly. This does not indicate a malfunction.
Heating (A/C OFF)
The air conditioner does not activate in this mode. Use this mode when you only need to heat.
Push the <AUTO> button on. (The indicator light on the button will illuminate.)
Push the <A/C> button. (The indicator light will turn off.)
Turn the temperature control dial on the corresponding side to set the desired temperature.
You can individually set temperatures for the driver’s side and front passenger’s side when the indicator light on the <SYNC> button is not illuminated.
The temperature of the passenger compartment will be maintained automatically. Air flow distribution and fan speed are also controlled automatically.
Do not set the temperature lower than the outside air temperature or the system may not work properly.
Not recommended if windows fog up.
MAX defrosting/defogging
Push the 
button to turn on the MAX defogging/defrosting mode and quickly defog/defrost the windscreen. When this mode is turned on, the fan will be at its maximum speed, the A/C indicator light will turn on, and the air circulation will be fixed at the outside air circulation mode.
Do not set the temperature too low when the front defogger mode is on (the indicator light on the button is illuminated), because doing so may fog up the windscreen.
