A/C Refrigerant Oil Replacement

Recommended PAG oil: SP-10

P/N 38897-P13-A01 AH: 120 mL (4 fl-oz)

It is important to have the correct amount of refrigerant oil in the A/C system to ensure proper lubrication of the compressor. Too little oil damages the compressor; too much oil reduces the cooling capacity of the system, and can produce high vent temperatures.

Add the recommended refrigerant oil in the amount listed if you replace any of the following parts:

A/C condenser (including receiver/dryer).......25 mL (5/6 fl-oz)

Evaporator.............................35 mL (1 1/6 fl-oz)

Line or hose...........................10 mL (1/3 fl-oz)

Receiver/dryer.......................10 mL (1/3 fl-oz)

Leakage repair.......................25 mL (5/6 fl-oz)

A/C compressor.........Because this compressor is equipped with on oil separator, oil drainage is unnecessary at the time of compressor replacement.
