How to Activate the Air Conditioning Cooling Function in the Murano

[VeraRose]

The common method is to use the AC button on the Murano's air conditioning system to activate the compressor for cooling or use the auto button for cooling adjustment. Below is a detailed introduction on how to use the Murano's air conditioning system: 1. Select the appropriate air conditioning temperature: The interior temperature should be maintained between 18°C and 25°C. Temperatures that are too low can easily make people sick. 2. Ventilate first before turning on the air conditioning: When you first enter the vehicle, you should open the windows for ventilation and turn on the external circulation. When the interior temperature drops to a suitable range, then turn on the air conditioning. 3. Use the air conditioning in a fully enclosed state: During use, if the doors and windows are not tightly closed, it can easily result in poor cooling performance of the air conditioning and waste fuel. The air conditioning should be used in a fully enclosed state.

I think turning on the air conditioning in the Murano is quite straightforward. First, start the car—the AC only works after the engine is running. Then, locate the A/C button on the center console and press it; the light turning on means the cooling is activated. Next, rotate the temperature knob to the blue, cooler zone—usually, 18 to 22 degrees Celsius feels comfortably cool. Don’t forget to press the fan speed button and select an appropriate setting. In summer, I often use the MAX A/C mode for faster cooling. On extremely hot days, it helps to open the windows briefly to let the hot air escape before turning on the AC—this improves cooling efficiency and saves energy. Regularly check the cabin air filter; if it’s clogged with dust, cooling performance suffers. I replace mine during every maintenance service. Periodically cleaning the vents also prevents bacterial growth and promotes better air quality. Overall, the operation is simple, and with proper vehicle care, the AC will keep running smoothly.

I often help friends with this issue. After starting the engine, locate the air conditioning control area, usually a round knob on the dashboard, and turn the temperature down to around 20 degrees to start cooling. If there's an AUTO button, press it once for automatic temperature and fan speed adjustment, which is very convenient. For manual operation, press the fan speed button to increase airflow, and it's best to direct the vents towards the front seats. I also recommend checking the refrigerant pressure; if it's too low, you'll need to top it up, otherwise the air won't be cold. When parking, avoid keeping the external circulation on for too long as it can let in hot air. Test the system response when switching to cooling during cold weather to ensure it's functioning properly, and seek repairs promptly if not to avoid malfunctions. Don't overlook the battery condition; unstable voltage can cause the air conditioning to fail. Safety first—don't wait until it's too hot to cool down while driving in the summer.

After starting the vehicle, press the A/C button to activate cooling, then adjust the temperature knob. Higher fan speed works better. Remember to maintain the filter regularly.

When taking kids out in our Murano, we always need to turn on the cooling system in advance. As soon as the engine starts, press the AUTO button in the air conditioning area, and it will automatically adjust the cooling airflow based on the set temperature. For manual control, turn the temperature knob to the low-temperature zone, such as 18 degrees, and press the airflow up button or select the MAX option for instant cooling. Remember not to point the air vents directly at people to prevent catching a cold. During the hot summer months, it's recommended to first turn on the internal and external circulation for a few minutes to purify the air, then lock the internal circulation for continuous and efficient cooling. Clean the air filter monthly to remove dust buildup, ensuring more stable cooling performance. When parking, remember to turn off the engine to avoid wasting electricity. The key to the whole process is to keep it comfortable without affecting driving concentration.
