PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
SERVICE HOSES
Be certain that the service hoses display the markings described
(colored hose with black stripe). All hoses must include positive shut-
off devices (either manual or automatic) near the end of the hoses
opposite to the manifold gauge.
SERVICE COUPLERS
Never attempt to connect HFC-134a (R-134a) service couplers to a
CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system. The HFC-134a (R-134a) couplers will
not properly connect to the CFC-12 (R-12) system. However, if an
improper connection is attempted, discharging and contamination
may occur.
REFRIGERANT WEIGHT SCALE
Verify that no refrigerant other than HFC-134a (R-134a) and speci-
fied lubricants have been used with the scale. If the scale controls
refrigerant flow electronically, the hose fitting must be 1/2
-16
ACME.
CHARGING CYLINDER
Using a charging cylinder is not recommended. Refrigerant may be vented into air from cylinder’s top valve
when filling the cylinder with refrigerant. Also, the accuracy of the cylinder is generally less than that of an
electrical scale or of quality recycle/recharge equipment.

LUBRICANT ADJUSTING PROCEDURE FOR COMPONENTS REPLACEMENT EXCEPT COM-
PRESSOR
After replacing any of the following major components, add the correct amount of lubricant to the system.
Amount of lubricant to be added:
*1: If the refrigerant leak is small, no addition of lubricant is needed.
LUBRICANT ADJUSTING PROCEDURE FOR COMPRESSOR REPLACEMENT
1. Before connecting recovery/recycling recharging equipment to vehicle, check recovery/recycling recharg-
ing equipment gauges. No refrigerant pressure should be displayed. If NG, recover refrigerant from equip-
ment lines.
2. Connect recovery/recycling recharging equipment to vehicle. Confirm refrigerant purity in supply tank
using recovery/recycling recharging equipment and refrigerant identifier. If NG, refer to ATC-7, "
CONTAM-
INATED REFRIGERANT" .
3. Confirm refrigerant purity in vehicle A/C system using recovery/recycling recharging equipment and refrig-
erant identifier. If NG, refer to ATC-7, "
CONTAMINATED REFRIGERANT" .
4. Discharge refrigerant into the refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment. Measure lubricant discharged into
the recovery/recycling equipment.
5. Drain the lubricant from the old (removed) compressor into a graduated container and recover the amount
of lubricant drained.
6. Drain the lubricant from the new compressor into a separate, clean container.
7. Measure an amount of new lubricant installed equal to amount drained from old compressor. Add this
lubricant to new compressor through the suction port opening.
8. Measure an amount of new lubricant equal to the amount recovered during discharging. Add this lubricant
to new compressor through the suction port opening.
9. If the liquid tank also needs to be replaced, add another 5 m (0.2 US fl oz., 0.2 Imp fl oz.) of lubricant at
this time.
Do not add this 5 m (0.2 US fl oz., 0.2 Imp fl oz.) of lubricant when replaces the compressor only.

Description of Control SystemNJS000G6
The control system consists of input sensors, switches, the unified meter and A/C amp. (microcomputer) and
outputs. The relationship of these components is shown in the figure below:

AIR CONDITIONER CONTROL
Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH
DISPLAY SCREEN
The operation status of the system is displayed on the screen.
MODE SWITCH (DRIVER SIDE)
Controls the air discharge outlets.
When the DUAL switch indicator is not illuminated, the left and right outlets are switched together.
When the DUAL switch indicator is illuminated, only the driver-side outlet is switched.
MODE SWITCH (PASSENGER SIDE)
When the MODE switch (passenger-side) is pressed, the DUAL switch indicator illuminates, and only the pas-
senger-side outlet is switched.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL SWITCH (POTENTIO TEMPERATURE CONTROL) (DRIVER SIDE)
The set temperature is Increased or decreased with this switch.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL SWITCH (POTENTIO TEMPERATURE CONTROL) (PASSENGER
SIDE)
The set temperature is Increased or decreased with this switch.
When the temperature switch is pressed, the DUAL switch indicator will automatically illuminate.
AUTO SWITCH
The compressor, intake doors, air mix doors, mode doors and blower speed are automatically controlled
so that the in-vehicle temperature will reach, and be maintained at the set temperature selected by the
operator.
When pressing AUTO switch, air inlet, air outlet, fan speed, and discharge air temperature are automati-
cally controlled.
DEFROSTER (DEF) SWITCH
Mode doors are set to the defrost position with this switch. Also, intake doors are set to the outside air position,
and compressor turns ON.
UPPER VENT SWITCH
When UPPER VENT switch is ON, UPPER VENT switch indicator turn ON, and upper ventilator door is
automatically controlled.
When DEFROSTER (DEF) switch is OFF, upper ventilator door is controlled.
When MODE position (driver side) is VENT or B/L, upper ventilation door is controlled.
When UPPER VENT switch is OFF, UPPER VENT switch indicator turn OFF, and upper ventilator door is
shut.

A/C SWITCH
Compressor is ON or OFF with this switch.
(Pressing the A/C switch when the A/C switch is ON will turn OFF the A/C switch and compressor.)
FAN SWITCHES
The blower speed is manually controlled with this switch. Seven speeds are available for manual control (as
shown on the display screen).
OFF SWITCH
Compressor and blower are OFF, intake doors are set to the outside air position, and the mode doors are set
to the foot (19% vent, 58% foot and 23% defrost) position.
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SWITCH
When illumination is ON, rear window is defogged.
INTAKE SWITCH
When intake switch is ON, FRE LED turns ON, and air inlet is fixed to FRE.
When press intake switch again, REC LED turns ON, and air inlet is fixed to REC.
When intake switch is pressed for approximately 1.5 seconds or longer, FRE and REC LEDs blink twice.
Then, automatic control mode is entered. Inlet status is displayed by LED during automatic controlled.
When FRE LED is turned ON, shifting mode position to D/F or DEF, or when compressor is turned from
ON to OFF, intake switch is automatically turned OFF (fixed to FRE mode). REC mode can be re-entered
by pressing intake switch again, and then compressor is turned ON. (Except D/F or DEF position)
DUAL SWITCH
When the DUAL switch indicator is illuminated, the driver-side and passenger-side temperature can each
be set independently.
When the DUAL switch indicator is not illuminated, the driver-side outlet and setting temperature is
applied to both sides.
Control Operation (Rear Control Switch)NJS000G8
AUTO SWITCH
When pressing AUTO switch, display for turned on AUTO and fan speed is automatically controlled.
When pressing AUTO switch, air inlet, air outlet, fan speed, and discharge air temperature are automati-
cally controlled.
FA N S W I T C H
The blower speed is manually controlled with this switch. Five speeds are available for manual control (as
shown on the display screen).
REAR TEMPERATURE CONTROL SWITCH

AIR CONDITIONER CONTROL
Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
A temperature for the rear seat with respect to a set temperature for the front seat can be adjusted by
operating switch.
Rear temperature control switch allows to select a temperature every 0.5C (1F) in the 18C (60F) to
32
C (90F) range.
When the DUAL switch is ON, temperature for the rear seat changes keeping the temperature difference
between two front seats. [e.g. When lowering the set temperature for the rear seat 1
C (2F) by operating
rear control switch at a set temperature of 25
C (77F) for the driver’s seat and 26C (79F) for the pas-
senger’s seat, the set temperature for the driver’s seat and passenger’s seat lower 1
C (2F) and become
24
C (75F) for the driver’s seat and 25C (77F) for the passenger’s seat.]
NOTE:
A set temperature for the rear seat is tied to a set temperature for the passenger’s seat. Therefore, a set
temperature for the rear seat changes in conjunction with a set temperature for the passenger’s seat
(When the set temperature of front seats are independent).
Fail-Safe FunctionNJS000G9
If a communication error exists between the unified meter and A/C amp.,and the AV control unit or NAVI
control unit and multifunction switch for 30 seconds or longer, air conditioner is controlled under the follow-
ing conditions:
Compressor : ON
Air outlet : AUTO
Air inlet : FRE (Fresh)
Blower fan speed : AUTO
Set temperature : Setting before communication error occurs
