1997 NISSAN SENTRA tire type

cBecause the T-type spare tire is
smaller than the original tire, ground
clearance is reduced. To avoid dam-
age to the vehicle, do not drive over
obstacles. Also do not drive the ve-
hicle through an automatic car wash
since it may get caught.
cDo not use the T-type spare tire on
other vehicles.
cDo not use more than one T-type
spare tire at the same time.
cDo not tow a trailer while the T-type
spare tire is installed.

AIR CONDITIONER SYSTEM RE-
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.
