12.1.3. Air conditioner system refrigerant and lubricant

For Europe: The air conditioner system of your vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant HFO1234yf (R1234yf) and the lubricant NISSAN A/C System Oil Type SP-A2 or equivalents.

Except for Europe: The air conditioner system of your vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant HFC-134a and the lubricant NISSAN A/C System Oil Type SP-A2 or equivalents.

Use of any other refrigerants or lubricants will cause severe damage, and you may need to replace your vehicle’s entire air conditioner system.

The release of refrigerants into the atmosphere is prohibited in many countries and regions. The refrigerant in your vehicle will not harm the Earth’s ozone layer. However, it may contribute in a small part to the global warming effect. NISSAN recommends that the refrigerant be appropriately recovered and recycled. Air conditioner system should only be serviced by trained and certified technicians to ensure proper and safe operation. Only new and certified evaporators shall be used as replacement parts. A damaged or leaking air conditioning evaporator shall never be repaired or replaced with one removed from a used or salvaged vehicle. To replace a damaged or leaking evaporator, use only new and certified evaporators. Contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop when servicing the air conditioner system.
