Add the recommended refrigerant oil in the amount listed if you replace any of the following parts.
- To avoid contamination, do not return the oil to the container once dispensed, and never mix it with other refrigerant oils.
- Immediately after using the oil, reinstall the cap on the container, and seal it to avoid moisture absorption.
- Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle; it may damage the paint; if it gets on the paint, wash it off immediately.
| A/C condenser | 25 mL (5/6 fl.oz) |

| A/C compressor | For A/C compressor replacement, subtract the volume of oil drained form the removed A/C compressor from 130 mL (5 1/3 fl.oz), and drain the calculated volume of oil from new A/C compressor: 130 mL (5 1/3 fl.oz) - Volume of removed A/C compressor = Volume to drain from new A/C compressor. |
NOTE:
Even if no oil is drained from the removed A/C compressor, don't drain more than 50 mL (1 2/3 fl.oz) from the new A/C compressor.
