12.15.9. Air conditioning system refrigerant and lubricant recommendations

The air conditioning system in your NISSAN vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant, HFO-1234yf (R-1234yf), and compressor oil ND-OIL11 or equivalent (Type A) or AE10 or equivalent (Type B), see ${1}.

The use of any other refrigerant or oil will cause severe damage to the air conditioning system and will require the replacement of all air conditioner system components.

The refrigerant in your NISSAN vehicle will not harm the earth’s ozone layer. Although this refrigerant does not affect the earth’s atmosphere, certain governmental regulations require the recovery and recycling of any refrigerant during automotive air conditioning system service. A knowledgeable LEAF repairer such as a NISSAN certified electric vehicle dealer has the trained technicians and equipment needed to recover and recycle your air conditioning system refrigerant.
