AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM RE- FRIGERANT AND LUBRICANT RE- COMMENDATIONS

The air conditioning system in your INFINITI vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) and the lubricant, INFINITI A/C system oil Type S or the exact equivalents.

CAUTION

The use of any other refrigerant or lubricant will cause severe damage to the air con- ditioning system and will require the repla- cement of all air conditioner system components.

The refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) in your INFINITI vehicle will not harm the earths ozone layer. Although this refrigerant does not affect the earths atmosphere, certain governmental regulations require the re- covery and recycling of any refrigerant during automotive air conditioning system service. Your INFINITI dealer has the trained technicians and equipment needed to recover and recycle your air conditioning system refrigerant.

Contact an INFINITI dealer when servicing your air conditioning system.
