FRIGERANT AND LUBRICANT
RECOMMENDATIONS
The air conditioner in your NISSAN ve-
hicle must be charged with the refriger-
ant HFC-134a (R-134a) and the lubricant,
NISSAN A/C system oil Type R or the
exact equivalents.
CAUTION
Use of any other refrigerant or lubricant
will cause severe damage and you will
need to replace your vehicle's entire air
conditioner system.
The refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) in your
NISSAN vehicle does not harm the earth's
ozone layer. Although this refrigerant does
not affect the earth's atmosphere, certain
governmental regulations require the recov-
ery and recycling of any refrigerant during
automotive air conditioner system service.
Your NISSAN dealer has the trained tech-
nicians and equipment needed to recover
and recycle your air conditioner system
refrigerant.
Contact your NISSAN dealer when servic-
ing your air conditioner system.
