PAG compressor oil and refrigerants.

The cabin air filter is located in the fresh air inlet
in the engine compartment. Perform the
following procedure to replace the filter:

Accessing Air Filter
The air conditioning system contains refrig-
erant under high pressure. To avoid risk of
personal injury or damage to the system,
adding refrigerant or any repair requiring
lines to be disconnected should be done by
an experienced technician.
