Notes on refrigerant
Observe the notes on operating fluids.
NOTE Damage due to incorrect refrigerant
If a non-approved refrigerant is used, the climate control system may be damaged.
USA: use only R‑134a refrigerant.
Canada: use only R‑1234yf refrigerant.
NOTE Damage to the climate control system due to incorrect refrigerant compressor oil
Only use refrigerant compressor oil that has been approved by Mercedes-Benz.
Do not mix the approved refrigerant compressor oil with a different refrigerant compressor oil.
Work on the climate control system may be carried out only by a qualified specialist workshop. All applicable regulations, as well as SAE standard J639, must be adhered to.
The information label for the climate control system regarding the refrigerant type and the refrig refrigerant compressor oil (PAG oil) is located on the inside of the hood.
