< PRECAUTION >
PRECAUTIONS
• The air conditioner warranty is void if the vehicle is within the warranty period. Please contact Nissan Cus-tomer Affairs for further assistance.
COMPRESSOR
CAUTION:
• Cap or plug all openings to prevent moisture and fo reign matter from entering.
• Store it in the same way as it is when moun ted on the car when the compressor is removed.
• Follow “Maintenance of Oil Level” exactly when replacing or repairing compressor. Refer to HA-22,
"Description".
• Keep friction surfaces between clut ch and pulley clean. Wipe it off by using a clean waste cloth
moistened with thinner if the su rface is contaminated with oil.
• Turn the compressor shaft by hand more than five turns in both directions after compressor service
operation. This distributes oil e qually inside the compressor. Let the engine idle and operate the
compressor for one hour after the compressor is installed.
• Apply voltage to the new one and check for norma l operation after replacing the compressor magnet
clutch.
LEAK DETECTION DYE
CAUTION:
• The A/C system contains a fluorescent leak detect ion dye used for locating refrigerant leaks. An
ultraviolet (UV) lamp is required to il luminate the dye when inspecting for leaks.
• Always wear fluorescence enhancing UV safety goggles to protect eyes and enhance the visibility of the fluorescent dye.
• The fluorescent dye leak detector is not a replacement for an electrical l eak detector (SST: J-41995).
The fluorescent dye leak detector sh ould be used in conjunction with an electrical leak detector
(SST: J-41995) to pin-point refrigerant leaks.
• Read and follow all manufacture’s operating inst ructions and precautions prior to performing the
work for the purpose of safet y and customer’s satisfaction.
• A compressor shaft seal should not necessarily be repaired becau se of dye seepage. The compres-
sor shaft seal should only be repaired after confi rming the leak with an electrical leak detector (SST:
J-41995).
• Always remove any remaining dye from the leak area after repairs are completed to avoid a misdiag-
nosis during a future service.
• Do not allow dye to come into contact with painted body panels or interior components. Clean imme- diately with the approved dye cl eaner if dye is spilled. Fluorescent dye left on a surface for an
extended period of time cannot be removed.
• Do not spray the fluorescent dye cleaning agent on hot surfaces (engine exhaust manifold, etc.).
• Do not use more than one refrigerant dye bottle [1/4 ounce (7.4 cc)] per A/C system.
• Leak detection dyes for HFC-134a (R-134a) and CFC-12 (R-12) A/C systems are different. Do not use
HFC-134a (R-134a) leak detection dye in CFC-12 (R- 12) A/C system or CFC-12 (R-12) leak detection
dye in HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system or A/C system damage may result.
• The fluorescent properties of the dye remains fo r three or more years unless a compressor malfunc-
tion occurs.
NOTE: Identification
• Vehicles with factory installed fluorescent dye have a green label.
• Vehicles without factory installed fluorescent dye have a blue label.
Service EquipmentINFOID:0000000012431988
RECOVERY/RECYCLING RECHARGING EQUIPMENT
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for machine operation and machine maintenance. Do not
introduce any refrigerant other than that specified into the machine.
ELECTRONIC LEAK DETECTOR
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instruct ions for tester operation and tester maintenance.

Oil Adjusting Procedure for Compressor ReplacementINFOID:0000000012432005
1. Drain oil from removed compressor and measure amount drained. • Drain oil from high-pressure port (A) and low-pressure port (B)
while rotating magnet clutch.
• Measure total amount of oil that is drained from removed com-
pressor.
2. Drain oil from a new compressor that is calculated according to the following conditions.
CAUTION:
If oil amount that is drained from removed compr essor is less than 60 m (2.1 Imp fl oz.), perform
calculation by setting “D” as 40 m (1.4 Imp fl oz.).
Example: Oil amount to be drained from a new compressor when replacing compressor [m (Imp fl oz.)]
[D = 60 (2.1), α = 5 (0.2)]
120 (4.2) − [60 (2.1) + 20 (0.7) + 5 (0.2)] = 35 (1.1)
3. Install compressor and check the operation.
Refrigerant leak is detected Large amount leakage

Small amount leakage —
Oil amount that is recycled together with refrigerant during recycle operation α

S: Oil amount that rema ins inside of removed
