Precautions for Fuel
DIESEL ENGINE*:
Diesel fuel of at least 50 cetane for ZD30DDTi engine.
* If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summer or winter
fuel properly according to the following temperature conditions.
IAbove þ7ÉC (20ÉF) ... Summer type diesel fuel.
IBelow þ7ÉC (20ÉF) ... Winter type diesel fuel.
CAUTION:
IDo not use home heating oil, gasoline, or other alternate
fuels in your diesel engine. The use of those can cause
engine damage.
IDo not use summer fuel at temperature below þ7ÉC (20ÉF).
The cold temperature will cause wax to form in the fuel. As
a result, it may prevent the engine from running smoothly.
IDo not add gasoline or other alternate fuels to diesel fuel.
Precautions for Engine Oils
Prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oil will result in the
removal of natural fats from the skin, leading to dryness, irritation
and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains potentially
harmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer. Adequate
means of skin protection and washing facilities must be provided.
HEALTH PROTECTION PRECAUTIONS
1. Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils, particularly
used engine oils.
2. Wear protective clothing, including impervious gloves where
practicable.
3. Do not put oily rags in pockets.
4. Avoid contaminating clothes, particularly underwear, with oil.
5. Heavily soiled clothing and oil-impregnated footwear should not
be worn. Overalls must be cleaned regularly.
6. First Aid treatment should be obtained immediately for open
cuts and wounds.
7. Use barrier creams, applying them before each work period, to
help the removal of oil from the skin.
8. Wash with soap and water to ensure all oil is removed (skin
cleansers and nail brushes will help). Preparations containing
lanolin replace the natural skin oils which have been removed.
9. Do not use petrol, kerosine, diesel fuel, gas oil, thinners or sol-
vents for cleaning skin.
10. If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice without delay.
11. Where practicable, degrease components prior to handling.
12. Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye protection should be
worn, for example, chemical goggles or face shields; in addition
an eye wash facility should be provided.
(For the United Kingdom, see also HSE Cautionary Notice SHW
397 ªEffects of Mineral Oil on the Skinº.)
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION PRECAUTIONS
Burning used engine oil in small space heaters or boilers can be
recommended only for units of approved design. The heating sys-
tem must meet the requirements of HM Inspectorate of Pollution for
small burners of less than 0.4 MW. If in doubt check with the
appropriate local authority and/or manufacturer of the approved
appliance.
PRECAUTIONS
GI-6
Dispose of used oil and used oil filters through authorized waste
disposal contractors to licensed waste disposal sites, or to the
waste oil reclamation trade. If in doubt, contact the local authority
for advice on disposal facilities.
It is illegal to pour used oil on to the ground, down sewers or drains,
or into water courses.
The regulations concerning the pollution of the environment
will vary from country to country.

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
GI-9
Precautions for Servicing Compressor
IAttach a blind plug to the suction port (low pressure) and discharge port (high pressure) of the
compressor to prevent oil from leaking out and dust from getting inside.
IWhen the compressor is removed, store it under the same condition as it is when mounted on the
car.
IWhen replacing or repairing compressor, be sure to remove oil from the compressor and check
the oil quantity extracted.
IWhen replacing with a new compressor, be sure to remove oil from the new compressor so that
the quantity of oil remaining in the new compressor is equal to the quantity collected from the
removed compressor. See the section ªLUBRICATION OILº.
IPay attention so as not to allow dirt and oil to attach on the friction surfaces between clutch and
pulley. If the surface is contaminated, with oil, wipe it off by using a clean waste cloth moistened
with thinner.
IAfter completing the compressor service operation, be sure to rotate the compressor shaft more
than five turns in both directions by hand to equalize oil distribution inside the compressor, then
run the compressor for about one hour by idling the engine.
IWhen the compressor magnet clutch has been replaced, be sure to check the magnet clutch for
normal operation by applying voltage to the clutch.

Lubrication Oil
Name: Nissan A/C System Oil Type R
Part number: KLH00-PAGR0
Maintenance of Oil Quantity in Compressor
The oil used to lubricate the compressor circulates through the
system with the refrigerant. Whenever any component of the sys-
tem is replaced or a large amount of gas leakage occurs, add oil
to the compressor to maintain the specified amount.
If oil quantity is not maintained properly, the following malfunctions
may result:
ILack of oil: May lead to a seized compressor
IExcessive oil: Inadequate cooling (thermal exchange impeded)
Checking and Adjusting
Adjust the oil quantity according to the flowchart shown below.
