NOTICE
• When using the air conditioning
system, monitor the temperature
gauge closely whilst driving up
hills or in heavy traffic when out-
side temperatures are high. Air
conditioning system operation
may cause vehicle overheating.
Continue to use the blower fan but
turn the air conditioning system
off if the temperature gauge indi-
cates vehicle overheating.
• When opening the windows in
humid weather air conditioning
may create water droplets inside
the vehicle. Since excessive water
droplets may cause damage to
electrical equipment, air condi-
tioning should only be used with
the windows closed.
CAUTION
• The refrigerant system should
only be serviced by trained
and certified technicians to
insure proper and safe opera-
tion.
• The refrigerant system should
be serviced in a well-ventilat-
ed place.
• The air conditioning evapora-
tor (cooling coil) shall never
be repaired or replaced with
one removed from a used or
salvaged vehicle and new
replacement MAC evaporators
shall be certified (and labeled)
as meeting SAE Standard
J2842.
