refrigerant type VOLVO S60 2008 Owners Manual

If your vehicle has been parked in the sun in warm weather, opening the windows and moonroof (option) for several
minutes before driving will help release the warm air from the passenger compartment. When the engine is running,
close the windows and moonroof and use the recirculation function for several minutes to enable the air conditioning
to cool the compartment as quickly as possible.
Windows and optional moonroof
The ECC system will function best if the windows and optional moonroof are closed. If you drive with the moonroof
open, we recommend that you manually adjust the temperature and blower control (the LED in the AUTO switch
should be off).
Acceleration
The air conditioning is momentarily disengaged during full-throttle acceleration.
Climate control maintenance
Special tools and equipment are required to maintain and carry out repairs on the climate system. Work of this type
should only be done by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
Refrigerant
Volvo cares about the environment. The air conditioning system in your vehicle contains a CFC-free refrigerant -
R134a (HFC134a). This substance will not deplete the ozone layer. The system contains 1.5 lbs (700 g) R134a and
uses PAG oil.
Climate system blower
The climate system blower will be automatically switched off when the engine is not running (even if the ignition key
is in position I or II) to avoid unnecessary battery drain. To activate the blower, turn the control to the desired setting.
Passenger compartment blower
Approximately 50 minutes after the ignition is turned off, the blower may come on automatically, and run for seven
minutes, to remove condensation in the A/C evaporator.
