Important operation tips for the
air conditioning
E00708300603
l
Park the vehicle in the shade.
Parking in the hot sun will make the vehicle
inside extremely hot, and it will require more
time to cool the interior.
If it is necessary to park in the sun, open the
windows for the first few minutes of air con-
ditioning operation to expel the hot air.
l
Close the windows when the air conditioning
is in use. The entry of outside air through
open windows will reduce the cooling effi-
ciency.
l
Too much cooling is not good for the health.
The inside air temperature should only be 5
to 6 °C below the outside air temperature.
l
When operating the system, make sure the
air intake, which is located in front of the
windscreen, is free of obstructions such as
leaves and snow. Leaves collected in the air-
intake plenum may reduce air flow and plug
the plenum water drains.
Air conditioning system refrigerant
and lubricant recommendations
If the air conditioning seems less effective than
usual, the cause might be a refrigerant leak. We
recommend you to have the system inspected.
The air conditioning system in your vehicle must
be charged with the refrigerant HFC-134a and the
lubricant SUN-PAG56.
Use of any other refrigerant or lubricant will cause
severe damage which will result in the need to re-
place your vehicle’s entire air conditioning system.
The release of refrigerant into the atmosphere
should be prevented.
