After removing windshield upper molding, remove glass using piano wire or power cutting tool (A) and an
inflatable pump bag (B).
 If a windshield glass is to be reused, mark the body and the glass with mating marks.
WARNING:
When cutting the glass from the vehicle, always wear safety glasses and heavy gloves to help prevent
glass splinters from entering your eyes or cutting your hands.
CAUTION:
 When a windshield glass is to be reused, do not use a cutting knife or power cutting tool.
 Be careful not to scratch the glass when removing.
 Do not set or stand the glass on its edge. Small chips may develop into cracks.
INSTALLATION
 Use a genuine NISSAN Urethane Adhesive Kit (if available) or equivalent and follow the instructions fur-
nished with it.
 While the urethane adhesive is curing, open a door window. This will prevent the glass from being forced out
by passenger room air pressure when a door is closed.
 The molding must be installed securely so that it is in position and leaves no gap.
 Inform the customer that the vehicle should remain stationary until the urethane adhesive has completely
cured (preferably 24 hours). Curing time varies with temperature and humidity.
WARNING:
 Keep heat and open flames away as primers and adhesive are flammable.
 The materials contained in the kit are harmful if swallowed, and may irritate skin and eyes. Avoid
contact with the skin and eyes.
 Use in an open, well ventilated location. Avoid breathing the vapors. They can be harmful if inhaled.
If affected by vapor inhalation, immediately move to an area with fresh air.
 Driving the vehicle before the urethane adhesive has completely cured may affect the performance
of the windshield in case of an accident.
CAUTION:
 Do not use an adhesive which is past its usable term. Shelf life of the adhesive is limited to six
months after the date of manufacture. Carefully adhere to the expiration or manufacture date printed
on the box.
 Keep primers and adhesive in a cool, dry place. Ideally, they should be stored in a refrigerator.
 Do not leave primers or adhesive cartridge unattended with their caps open or off.
 The vehicle should not be driven for at least 24 hours or until the urethane adhesive has completely
cured. Curing time varies depending on temperature and humidities. The curing time will increase
under lower temperatures and lower humidities.
Repairing Water Leaks
Leaks can be repaired without removing and reinstalling glass.
If water is leaking between the urethane adhesive material and body or glass, determine the extent of leakage.
This can be done by applying water to the windshield area while pushing glass outward.
To stop the leak, apply primer (if necessary) and then urethane adhesive to the leak point.

REAR WINDOW GLASS AND MOLDING
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
 Use a genuine NISSAN Urethane Adhesive Kit (if available) or equivalent and follow the instructions fur-
nished with it.
 While the urethane adhesive is curing, open a door window. This will prevent the glass from being forced out
by passenger compartment air pressure when a door is closed.
 The molding must be installed securely so that it is in position and leaves no gap.
 Check gap along bottom to confirm that glass does not contact sheet metal.
 Inform the customer that the vehicle should remain stationary until the urethane adhesive has completely
cured (preferably 24 hours). Curing time varies with temperature and humidity.
WARNING:
 Keep heat and open flames away as primers and adhesive are flammable.
 The materials contained in the kit are harmful if swallowed, and may irritate skin and eyes. Avoid

Repairing Water leaks for Rear Window Glass
Leaks can be repaired without removing or reinstalling glass.
If water is leaking between urethane adhesive material and body or glass, determine the extent of leakage.
This can be done by applying water to the rear window area while pushing glass outward.
To stop leak, apply primer (if necessary) and then urethane adhesive to the leak point.

< PRECAUTION >
PRECAUTIONS
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 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 oils have been used with the scale. If the scale controls refriger-
ant 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
electronic scale or of quality recycle/recharge equipment.
Precaution for Leak Detection DyeINFOID:0000000001396435
 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 conjunction with an electronic refrigerant leak detector to pin-
point refrigerant leaks.
 For your safety and your customer’s satisfaction, read and follow all manufacture’s operating instructions
and precautions prior to performing the 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.
 Always remove any remaining dye from the leak area after repairs are complete to avoid a misdiagnosis dur-
ing 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. Fluorescent dye left on a surface for an extended period of
time cannot be removed.

REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS
REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
Refrigerant CycleINFOID:0000000001396439
REFRIGERANT FLOW
The refrigerant flows in the standard pattern, that is, through the compressor, the condenser with liquid tank,
through the evaporator, and back to the compressor. The refrigerant evaporation through the evaporator is
controlled by an externally equalized expansion valve, located inside the evaporator case.
FREEZE PROTECTION
Under usual operating conditions, when the A/C is switched ON, the compressor runs continuously, and the
evaporator pressure, and temperature is controlled by the compressor to prevent freeze up.
Refrigerant System ProtectionINFOID:0000000001396440
REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR
The refrigerant system is protected against excessively high or low pressures by the refrigerant pressure sen-
sor, located on the condenser. If the system pressure rises above, or falls below the specifications, the refrig-
erant pressure sensor detects the pressure inside the refrigerant line and sends the voltage signal to the ECM.
ECM makes the A/C relay go OFF and stops the compressor when pressure on the high-pressure side
detected by refrigerant pressure sensor is over about 2,746 kPa (27.46 bar, 28.0 kg/cm
2 , 398 psi), or below
about 134 kPa (1.34 bar, 1.4 kg/cm
2 , 20 psi).
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
The refrigerant system is also protected by a pressure relief valve, located in the rear head of the compressor.
When the pressure of refrigerant in the system increases to an unusual level [more than 3.8 MPa (38 bar,
38.76 kg/cm
2 , 551 psi)], the release port on the pressure relief valve automatically opens and releases refrig-
erant into the atmosphere.
