CHARGING M1552001200403
Use the refrigerant recovery station to charge the refrigerant.
METHOD BY USING REFRIGERANT RECOVERY
AND RECYCLING UNIT
Using the refrigerant recovery and recycling unit, refill the
refrigerant.
NOTE: Refer to the Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling Unit’s
Instruction Manual for operation of the unit.
DISCHARGING SYSTEM
Use the refrigerant recovery unit to discharge refrigerant gas
from the system.
NOTE: Refer to the Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling Unit’s
Instruction Manual for operation of the unit.
REFILLING OF OIL IN THE A/C SYSTEM
Too little oil will provide inadequate compressor lubrication and
cause a compressor failure. Too much oil will increase dis-
charge air temperature.
When a compressor is installed at the factory, it contains 140
ml of refrigerant oil. While the A/C system is in operation, the oil
is carried through the entire system by the refrigerant. Some of
this oil will be trapped and retained in various parts of the sys-
tem.
When the following system components are changed, it is nec-
essary to add oil to the system to replace the oil being removed
with the component.
Compressor oil: ND Oil 8
Quantity:
Evaporator: 40 ml
Condenser: 40 ml

5. Ohmmeter
An ohmmeter is used to check continuity or measure
resistance of a switch or coil. If the measuring range has
been changed, the zero point must be adjusted before
measurement.
CHECKING FUSESM1001005000044
A blade type fuse has test taps provided to allow checking of
the fuse itself without removing it from the fuse block. The fuse
is okay if the test light comes on when its one lead is connected
to the test taps (one at a time) and the other lead is grounded.
Remember to turn the ignition switch to ON to ensure all cir-
cuits are live.
CAUTIONS IN EVENT OF BLOWN FUSE
When a fuse is blown, there are two probable causes. One is
that it is blown due to flow of current exceeding its rating. The
other is that it is blown due to repeated on/off current flowing
through it. Which of the two causes is responsible can be easily
determined by visual check as described below.
1. Fuse blown due to current exceeding rating
The illustration shows the state of a fuse blown due to this
cause. In this case, do not replace the fuse with a new one
hastily since a current heavy enough to blow the fuse has
flowed through it. First, check the circuit for shorts and check
for abnormal electric parts. After correcting shorts or
replacing parts, use only a fuse of the same capacity as a
replacement. Never use a fuse of larger capacity than the
original fuse. If a larger capacity fuse is used, electric parts
or wiring could be damaged, or could start a fire.
2. Fuse blown due to repeated turning current on and off
The illustration shows the state of a fuse blown due to
repeated current on/off. Normally, this type of problem
occurs after a fairly long period of use and is less frequent
than above. In this case, simply replace with a new fuse of
the same capacity.

1. Check for holes and exhaust gas leaks due to damage,
corrosion, etc.
2. Check the joints and connections for looseness and exhaust
gas leaks.
3. Check the rubber hangers and brackets for damage.
9. ENGINE OIL (CHANGE)M1001002600360
Use the specified oil. (Refer to P.00-35.)
Use care as oil could be hot.
1. After warming up the engine, remove the oil filler cap.
2. Remove the drain plug to allow the engine oil to drain.
3. Install a new drain plug gasket so that it faces in the
direction shown in the illustration, and then tighten the drain
plug to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 39
5 Nm (29 3 ft-lb)
4. Pour new engine oil in through the oil filler hole.
Specified Engine Oil:
To ta l q u a n t i t y :
<3.8L Engine> 4.6 Litres
5. Install the engine oil filler cap.
6. Start the engine and run it at idle for a few minutes.
7. Pull out the oil dipstick slowly and check that the oil level is
within the marks on the oil dipstick.
8. Check that the oil is not excessively dirty, that there is no
coolant or petrol mixed in, and that it has sufficient viscosity.
10. ENGINE OIL FILTER (REPLACE)M1001002700345
The quality of replacement filters varies considerably. Only high
quality filters should be used to assure most efficient service.
Genuine oil filters require that the filter is capable of withstand-
ing a pressure of 1,800 kPa (261 psi) are high quality filters.

6. Securely insert the dipstick.
NOTE: The transmission fluid should always be replaced
under the following conditions:
.
When troubleshooting the transaxle.
When overhauling the transaxle.
When the transmission fluid is noticeably dirty or burnt
(driving under severe conditions).

12. ENGINE COOLANT (CHANGE)M1001003100357
Check the cooling system parts such as the radiator, heater
and oil cooler hoses, thermostat and their connections for leak-
age and damage.
.
CHANGING COOLANT
1. Set the temperature control knob to the "HOT" position.
2. Run the engine until the engine coolant warms, and then
stop the engine.
When removing the radiator cap, use care to avoid
contact with hot coolant or steam. Place a shop towel
over the cap and turn the cap counterclockwise a lit-
tle to let the pressure escape through the vinyl tube.
After relieving the steam pressure, remove the cap by
slowly turning it counterclockwise.
3. Drain the water from the radiator, heater core and engine
after unplugging the radiator drain plug and removing the
radiator cap.
