Air Conditioning

Your car's air conditioning is a sealed

system. Any major maintenance,
such as recharging, should be done

by a qualified technician. There are a

couple of things you can do to make

sure the air conditioning works

efficiently.

Periodically check the engine's

radiator and air conditioning

condenser for leaves, insects, and
dirt stuck to the front surface. These

block the air flow and reduce cooling

efficiency. Use a light spray from a
hose or a soft brush to remove them.

The condenser and radiator fins

bend easily. Only use a low-pressure

spray or soft-bristle brush to clean

them.

Run the air conditioning at least once
a week during the cold weather
months. Run it for at least ten
minutes while you are driving at a

steady speed with the engine at

normal operating temperature. This
circulates the lubricating oil con-
tained in the refrigerant.

If the air conditioning does not get as

cold as before, have your dealer
check the system. Recharge the

system with Refrigerant HFC-134a

(R-134a). (See Specifications on page

214

Whenever you have the air condi-

tioning system serviced, make sure

the service facility uses a refrigerant

recycling system. This system
captures the refrigerant for reuse.
Releasing refrigerant into the at-
mosphere can damage the environ-
ment.
