SERVICE PROCEDURES

Maintenance of Lubricant Quantity in
Compressor
The lubricant used to lubricate the compressor circulates through
the system with the refrigerant. Add lubricant to compressor
when replacing any component or after a large gas leakage
occurred. It is important to maintain the specified amount.
If lubricant quantity is not maintained properly, the following mal-
functions may result:
lLack of lubricant: May lead to a seized compressor
lExcessive lubricant: Inadequate cooling (thermal exchange
interference)
LUBRICANT
Name: Nissan A/C System Oil Type R
Part number: KLH00-PAGR0
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING
Adjust the lubricant quantity according to the flowchart shown
below.
START
Can lubricant return operation be per-
formed?
lA/C system works properly.lThere is no evidence of a large amount of
lubricant leakage.
No
cYes
Perform lubricant return operation, proceeding as follows:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Start engine, and set the following conditions:
lTest condition
Engine speed: Idling to 1,200 rpm
A/C or AUTO switch: ON
Blower speed: Max. position
Temp. control: Optional [Set so that intake air temperature is
25 to 30ÉC (77 to 86ÉF).]
2. Next item is for V-5 or V-6 compressor. Connect the manifold
gauge, and check that the high pressure side pressure is 588 kPa
(5.9 bar, 6 kg/cm
2, 85 psi) or higher.
If less than the reference level, attach a cover to the front face of
the condenser to raise the pressure.
3. Perform lubricant return operation for about 10 minutes.
4. Stop engine.
CAUTION:
If excessive lubricant leakage is noted, do not perform the lubricant
return operation.
Should the compressor be replaced?
No Yes
b
VA(Go to next page.)
Is there any part to be replaced?
(Evaporator, condenser, liquid tank or in
case there is evidence of a large amount of
lubricant leakage.)
No
cYes
After replacing any of the following major components, add the correct
amount of lubricant to the system.
Amount of lubricant to be added
*1: If compressor is replaced, addition of lubricant is included in the flow
chart.
*2: If refrigerant leak is small, no addition of lubricant is needed.
Carry out the A/C performance test.b
