This vehicle uses HFC-I34a (R-l34a) refrigerant which does not contain chlorofluorocarbons. Pay attention to the follow-ing service items:
. Do not mix refrigerants CFC-12 (R-12) and HFC-l34a (R-134a). They are not compatible.. Use only the recommended polyalkyleneglycol (PAG) refrigerant oil (SP-10) designed for the R-134a compressor.Intermixing the recommended (PAG) refrigerant oil with any other refrigerant oil will result in compressor failure.. Afl Ay'C system parts (compressor, discharge line. suction line, evaporator, condenser. receiver/dryer, expansion valve,O-rings for joints) have to be proper for refrigerant R-134a. Do not confuse with R-12 parts.
. Use a halogen gas leak detector designed for refrigerant R-134a.. R-12 and R-134a refrigerant servicing equipment are not interchangeable. Use only a recovery/recycling/charging stationthat is U.L.iisted and is certified to meet the requirements of SAE J2210 to service R-134a air conditioning system.. Always recover the refrigerant R-134a with an approved recovery/recycling/charging station before disconnecting anylVC fitting.
