Air Conditioning System .55 kg³ 1.2 lb³

¹ Abrupt refrigerant loss due to large leak, hose rupture, collision, or pressure relief valve opening. Conditions that allow the
refrigerant to seep or bleed off over time do not cause large amount of PAG oil loss. Upon replacement of a component that
caused a large refrigerant loss, add the required amount of PAG oil for the particular component.
² If more than the specified amount of PAG oil was drained from a component, add the amount drained.
³ This vehicle has a refrigerant charge operational tolerance of – .07 kg to + .03 kg / – 0.154 lbs to + 0.066 lbs. If refrigerant charge
falls outside of this range, please refer to Air Conditioning (A/C) System Performance Test.
