PRECAUTIONS
not have dedicated recovery equipment, you may contact a local refrigerant product retailer for available ser-
vice. This refrigerant must be disposed of in acco rdance with all federal and local regulations. In addition,
replacement of all refrigerant system components on the vehicle is recommended.
• If the vehicle is within the warranty period, the air conditioner warranty is void. Please contact NISSAN Cus-
tomer Affairs for further assistance.
General Refrigerant PrecautionINFOID:0000000003533220
WARNING:
• Do not release refrigerant into th e air. Use approved recovery/recycling equipment to capture the
refrigerant every time an air conditioning system is discharged.
• Always wear eye and hand protection (goggles and gloves) when working with any refrigerant or air
conditioning system.
• Do not store or heat refrigerant containers above 52 °C (125 °F).
• Do not heat a refrigerant container with an open flame; if container warming is required, place the
bottom of the container in a warm pail of water.
• Do not intentionally drop, puncture, or incinerate refrigerant containers.
• Keep refrigerant away from open flames: poisonou s gas will be produced if refrigerant burns.
• Refrigerant will displace oxygen, therefore be certa in to work in well ventilated areas to prevent suf-
focation.
• Do not pressure test or leak test HFC-134a (R-134a) service equipment and/or vehicle air condition-
ing systems with compressed air during repair. Some mixtures of air and HFC-134a (R-134a) have
been shown to be combustible at elevated pressures. These mixtures, if ignited, may cause injury or
property damage. Additional heal th and safety information may be obtained from refrigerant manu-
facturers.
Precaution for Leak Detection DyeINFOID:0000000003533221
• The A/C system contains a fluorescent leak detection dye used for locating refrigerant leaks. An ultraviolet
(UV) lamp is required to illuminate the dye when inspecting for leaks.
• Always wear fluorescence enhancing UV safety goggles to protect your eyes and enhance the visibility of
the fluorescent dye.
• The fluorescent dye leak detector is not a replacement for an electronic refrigerant leak detector. The fluo-
rescent dye leak detector should be used in conjuncti on with an electronic refrigerant leak detector (J-
41995).
• For your safety and the customer's satisfaction, r ead and follow all manufacturer's operating instructions and
precautions prior to performing work.
• A compressor shaft seal should not be repaired because of dye seepage. The compressor shaft seal should only be repaired after confirming the leak with an electronic refrigerant leak detector (J-41995).
• Always remove any dye from the leak area after repairs are complete to avoid a misdiagnosis during a future
service.
• Do not allow dye to come into contact with painted body panels or interior components. If dye is spilled,
clean immediately with the approved dye cleaner. Fluoresc ent dye left on a surface for an extended period of
time cannot be removed .
• Do not spray the fluorescent dye cleaning agent on hot surfaces (engine exhaust manifold, etc.).
• Do not use more than one refrigerant dye bottle (1/4 ounce / 7.4 cc) per A/C system.
• Leak detection dyes for HFC-134a (R-134a) and CFC-12 (R -12) A/C systems are different. Do not use HFC-
134a (R-134a) leak detection dye in CFC-12 (R-12) A/ C systems or CFC-12 (R-12) leak detection dye in
HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C systems or A/C system damage may result.
• The fluorescent properties of the dye will remain for ov er three (3) years unless a compressor failure occurs.
A/C Identification LabelINFOID:0000000003533222
Vehicles with factory installed fluorescent dye have this identification label on the underside of hood.
Precaution for Refrigerant ConnectionINFOID:0000000003533223
A new type refrigerant connection has been introduced to al l refrigerant lines except the following locations.
• Expansion valve to cooling unit
• Evaporator pipes to evaporator (inside cooling unit)
• Refrigerant pressure sensor

PRECAUTIONS
• After installing leaf spring clamps, apply force to them in the direc-
tion of the arrow, tightening rubber hose equally all around.
Precaution for Engine OilsINFOID:0000000003531476
Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause skin cancer. Try to avoid direct skin contact
with used oil.
If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand cleaner as soon as possible.
HEALTH PROTECTION PRECAUTIONS
• Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils, particularly used engine oils.
• Wear protective clothing, including impervious gloves where practicable.
• Do not put oily rags in pockets.
• Avoid contaminating clothes, particularly underpants, with oil.
• Heavily soiled clothing and oil-impregnated footwear should not be worn. Overalls must be cleaned regu-
larly.
• First aid treatment should be obtained immediately for open cuts and wounds.
• Use barrier creams, applying them before each work period, to help the removal of oil from the skin.
• Wash with soap and water to ensure all oil is removed (skin cleansers and nail brushes will help). Prepara-
tions containing lanolin replace the natural skin oils which have been removed.
• Do not use gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, gas oil, thinners or solvents for cleaning skin.
• If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice without delay.
• Where practical, degrease components prior to handling.
• Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye protection should be worn, for example, chemical goggles or face
shields; in addition an eye wash facility should be provided.
Precaution for Air ConditioningINFOID:0000000003531477
Use an approved refrigerant recovery unit any time the air conditioning system must be discharged. Refer to
ATC-150, "
HFC-134a (R-134a) Service Procedure" for specific instructions.

*1: For further details, refer to MA-10, "SAE Viscosity Number" .
*2: Using automatic transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN Matic J ATF will cause deterioration in driveability and automatic
transmission durability, and may damage the automatic transmission, which is not covered by the INFINITI new vehicle limited warranty.
*3: For Canada, NISSAN Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF), DEXRON
TM III or MERCONTM or equivalent ATF may also be used.
*4: Available in mainland U.S.A. through your INFINITI dealer.
*5: For further details, see “Air conditioner specification label”.
*6: For hot climates, viscosity SAE 90 is suitable for ambient temperatures above 0° C (32° F).
*7: DEXRON
TM III, MERCONTM or equivalent may also be used. Outside the continental United States and Alaska contact a INFINITI
dealership for more information regarding suitable fluids, including recommended brand(s) of DEXRONTM III or MERCONTM Automatic
Transmission Fluid.
*8: For improved vehicle performance, INFINITI recommends the use of unleaded premium gasoline with an octane rating of at least 91
AKI (RON 96). For further details, refer to GI-4, "
Precaution for Fuel (Unleaded Premium Gasoline Required)" .
*9: See your INFINITI dealer for service for synthetic oil.
