Service
The air conditioning system will not
be able to cool the cab interior
effectively if the refrigerant level is
low. Accordingly, the refrigerant
level must be topped up whenever
necessary.
Please contact your dealer
whenever refrigerant must be
added. Operation Tips
Operating the air conditioning while
the refrigerant level is too low leads
not only to poor cooling
performance but also to air
conditioning system damage.
This vehicle uses the new
refrigerant HFC134a (R134a) in the
air conditioning system. No other
type of refrigerant can be used. In
order to protect the environment,
care must be taken to ensure that
refrigerant gas is never released
into open air. When refrigerant must
be replaced, therefore, please
contact your dealer or other service
facility equipped with a gas recovery
installation system.
