Avoid breathing A/C refrigerant and lubricant vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and
throat. Remove HFC-134a (R-134a) from A/C system using certified service equipment meeting require-
ments of HFC-134a (R-134a) recycling equipment or HFC-134a (R-134a) recovery equipment. If acci-
dental system discharge occurs, ventilate work area before resuming service. Additional health and
safety information may be obtained from refrigerant and lubricant manufacturers.

Lubricant Adjusting Procedure for Components
Replacement Except Compressor
=NJHA0160S0201After replacing any of the following major components, add the
correct amount of lubricant to the system.
Amount of lubricant to be added

Remarks
Amount of lubricant

Evaporator 75 (2.6) Ð
Condenser 75 (2.6) Ð
Liquid tank 5 (0.2)Add if compressor is not
replaced. *1
In case of refrigerant
leak30 (1.1) Large leak
Ð Small leak *2
*1: If compressor is replaced, addition of lubricant is included in the table.
*2: If refrigerant leak is small, no addition of lubricant is needed.
Lubricant Adjustment Procedure for Compressor
Replacement
NJHA0160S02021. Discharge refrigerant into the refrigerant recovery/recycling
equipment. Measure lubricant discharged into the recovery/
recycling equipment.
2. Drain the lubricant from the ªoldº (removed) compressor into a
graduated container and recover the amount of lubricant
drained.
3. Drain the lubricant from the ªnewº compressor into a separate,
clean container.
4. Measure an amount of new lubricant installed equal to amount
drained from ªoldº compressor. Add this lubricant to ªnewº com-
pressor through the suction port opening.
5. Measure an amount of new lubricant equal to the amount
recovered during discharging. Add this lubricant to ªnewº com-
pressor through the suction port opening.
6. If the liquid tank also needs to be replaced, add an additional
5m!(0.2 Imp fl oz) of lubricant at this time.
Do not add this 5 m!(0.2 Imp fl oz) of lubricant if only
replacing the compressor.

SulphationNJSC0003S0201A battery will be completely discharged if it is left unattended
for a long time and the specific gravity will become less than
1.100. This may result in sulphation on the cell plates.
To determine if a battery has been ªsulphatedº, note its volt-
age and current when charging it. As shown in the figure, less
current and higher voltage are observed in the initial stage of
charging sulphated batteries.
A sulphated battery may sometimes be brought back into ser-
vice by means of a long, slow charge, 12 hours or more, fol-
lowed by a battery capacity test.
MEL042FA
SPECIFIC GRAVITY CHECKNJSC0003S031. Read hydrometer and thermometer indications at eye level.
2. Convert into specific gravity at 20ÉC (68ÉF).
Example:
+When electrolyte temperature is 35ÉC (95ÉF) and specific grav-
ity of electrolyte is 1.230, converted specific gravity at 20ÉC
(68ÉF) is 1.240.
+When electrolyte temperature is 0ÉC (32ÉF) and specific grav-
ity of electrolyte is 1.210, converted specific gravity at 20ÉC
(68ÉF) is 1.196.
