REMOVAL
1.
Clean piping connection point, and set a disconnector.
2.
Slide disconnector in axial direction of piping, and stretch garter spring with tapered point of disconnector.
3.
Slide disconnector farther so that inside diameter of garter spring becomes larger than outside diameter of
female-side piping flare. Then male-side piping can be disconnected.
INSTALLATION
1.
Clean piping connection points, and insert male-side piping into female-side piping.
2.
Push inserted male-side piping harder so that female-side piping flare stretches garter spring.
3.
If inside diameter of garter spring becomes larger than outside diameter of female-side piping flare, garter
spring seats on flare. Then, it fits in between male-side piping cage and female-side piping flare to anchor
piping connection point.
NOTE:
When garter spring seats on flare, and fits in between male-side piping cage and female-side piping flare,
it clicks.
CAUTION:
●
Female-side piping connection point is thin and easy to deform. Slowly insert the male-side pip-
ing straight in axial direction.
●
Insert piping securely until a click is heard.

Low-pressure pipe 1 to low-pressure pipe 2 (O-ring size: 16)
●
High-pressure pipe 1 to high-pressure pipe 2 (O-ring size: 8)
FEATURES OF NEW TYPE REFRIGERANT CONNECTION
●
The O-ring has been relocated. It has also been provided with a groove for proper installation. This elimi-
nates the possibility of the O-ring being caught in, or damaged by, the mating part. The sealing direction of
the O-ring is now set vertically in relation to the contacting surface of the mating part to improve sealing
characteristics.
●
The reaction force of the O-ring will not occur in the direction that causes the joint to pull out, thereby facil-
itating piping connections.

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2006 August
2006 Murano
WARNING:
Make sure all refrigerant is discharged into the recycling equipment and the pressure in the system is
less than atmospheric pressure. Then gradually loosen the discharge side hose fitting and remove it.
CAUTION:
When replacing or cleaning refrigerant cycle components, observe the following.
●
When the compressor is removed, store it in the same way at it is when mounted on the car. Fail-
ure to do so will cause lubricant to enter the low-pressure chamber.
●
When connecting tubes, always use a torque wrench and a back-up wrench.
●
After disconnecting tubes, immediately plug all openings to prevent entry of dust and moisture.
●
When installing an air conditioner in the vehicle, connect the pipes at the final stage of the opera-
tion. Never remove the seal caps of pipes and other components until just before required for con-
nection.
●
Allow components stored in cool areas to warm to working area temperature before removing seal
caps. This prevents condensation from forming inside A/C components.
●
Thoroughly remove moisture from the refrigeration system before charging the refrigerant.
●
Always replace used O-rings.
●
When connecting tubes, apply lubricant to circle of the O-rings shown in illustration. Be careful
not to apply lubricant to threaded portion.
●
O-ring must be closely attached to the groove of tube.
●
When replacing the O-ring, be careful not to damage O-ring and tube.
●
Connect tube until a click can be heard, then tighten the nut or bolt by hand. Make sure that the O-
ring is installed to tube correctly.
●
After connecting line, perform leak test and make sure that there is no leakage from connections.
When the refrigerant leaking point is found, disconnect that line and replace the O-ring. Then
tighten connections of seal seat to the specified torque.

Precautions for Servicing Compressor
NJS000A7
●
Plug all openings to prevent moisture and foreign matter from entering.
●
When the compressor is removed, store it in the same way at it is when mounted on the car.
●
When replacing or repairing compressor, follow “Maintenance of Lubricant Quantity in Compres-
sor” exactly. Refer to
ATC-22, "Maintenance of Lubricant Quantity in Compressor"
●
Keep friction surfaces between clutch and pulley clean. If the surface is contaminated with lubri-
cant, wipe it off by using a clean waste cloth moistened with thinner.
●
After compressor service operation, turn the compressor shaft by hand more than five turns in
both directions. This will equally distribute lubricant inside the compressor. After the compressor
is installed, let the engine idle and operate the compressor for one hour.
●
After replacing the compressor magnet clutch, apply voltage to the new one and check for normal
operation.
Precautions for Service Equipment
NJS000A8
RECOVERY / RECYCLING EQUIPMENT
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for machine operation and machine maintenance. Never
introduce any refrigerant other than that specified into the machine.
ELECTRICAL LEAK DETECTOR
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for tester operation and tester maintenance.
VACUUM PUMP
The lubricant contained inside the vacuum pump is not compatible
with the specified lubricant for HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C systems.
The vent side of the vacuum pump is exposed to atmospheric pres-
sure. So the vacuum pump lubricant may migrate out of the pump
into the service hose. This is possible when the pump is switched off
after evacuation (vacuuming) and hose is connected to it.
To prevent this migration, use a manual valve placed near the hose-
to-pump connection, as follows.
●
Usually vacuum pumps have a manual isolator valve as part of
the pump. Close this valve to isolate the service hose from the
pump.
●
For pumps without an isolator, use a hose equipped with a man-
ual shut-off valve near the pump end. Close the valve to isolate
the hose from the pump.
●
If the hose has an automatic shut-off valve, disconnect the hose
from the pump. As long as the hose is connected, the valve is
open and lubricating oil may migrate.
Some one-way valves open when vacuum is applied and close
under no vacuum condition. Such valves may restrict the pump’s
ability to pull a deep vacuum and are not recommended.
MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
Be certain that the gauge face indicates HFC-134a or R-134a. Be
sure the gauge set has 1/2
″
-16 ACME threaded connections for ser-
vice hoses. Confirm the set has been used only with refrigerant
HFC-134a (R-134a) and specified lubricants.

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2006 August
2006 Murano
SERVICE HOSES
Be certain that the service hoses display the markings described
(colored hose with black stripe). All hoses must include positive shut-
off devices (either manual or automatic) near the end of the hoses
opposite to the manifold gauge.
SERVICE COUPLERS
Never attempt to connect HFC-134a (R-134a) service couplers to a
CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system. The HFC-134a (R-134a) couplers will
not properly connect to the CFC-12 (R-12) system. However, if an
improper connection is attempted, discharging and contamination
may occur.
REFRIGERANT WEIGHT SCALE
Verify that no refrigerant other than HFC-134a (R-134a) and speci-
fied lubricants have been used with the scale. If the scale controls
refrigerant flow electronically, the hose fitting must be 1/2
″
-16
ACME.
CHARGING CYLINDER
Using a charging cylinder is not recommended. Refrigerant may be vented into air from cylinder’s top valve
when filling the cylinder with refrigerant. Also, the accuracy of the cylinder is generally less than that of an
electronic scale or of quality recycle/recharge equipment.

Precautions for Leak Detection Dye
NJS000A9
●
The A/C system contains a fluorescent leak detection dye used for locating refrigerant leaks. An ultraviolet
(UV) lamp is required to illuminate the dye when inspecting for leaks.
●
Always wear fluorescence enhancing UV safety goggles to protect your eyes and enhance the visibility of
the fluorescent dye.
●
The fluorescent dye leak detector is not a replacement for an electrical leak detector (SST: J-41995). The
fluorescent dye leak detector should be used in conjunction with an electrical leak detector (SST: J-41995)
to pin-point refrigerant leaks.
●
For the purpose of safety and customer’s satisfaction, read and follow all manufacture’s operating instruc-
tions and precautions prior to performing the work.
●
A compressor shaft seal should not necessarily be repaired because of dye seepage. The compressor
shaft seal should only be repaired after confirming the leak with an electrical leak detector (SST: J-41995).
●
Always remove any remaining dye from the leak area after repairs are completed to avoid a misdiagnosis
during a future service.
●
Never allow dye to come into contact with painted body panels or interior components. If dye is spilled,
clean immediately with the approved dye cleaner. Fluorescent dye left on a surface for an extended period
of time cannot be removed.
●
Never spray the fluorescent dye cleaning agent on hot surfaces (engine exhaust manifold, etc.).
●
Never use more than one refrigerant dye bottle (1/4 ounce /7.4 cc) per A/C system.
●
Leak detection dyes for HFC-134a (R-134a) and CFC-12 (R-12) A/C systems are different. Never use
HFC-134a (R-134a) leak detection dye in CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system or CFC-12 (R-12) leak detection
dye in HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system, or A/C system damage may result.
●
The fluorescent properties of the dye will remain for three years or a little over unless a compressor mal-
function occurs.
IDENTIFICATION
NOTE:
Vehicles with factory installed fluorescent dye have a green label.
Vehicles without factory installed fluorescent dye have a blue label.
IDENTIFICATION LABEL FOR VEHICLE
Vehicles with factory installed fluorescent dye have the identification label on the front side of hood.

HFC-134a (R-134a) Service Tools and Equipment
NJS000AC
Never mix HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant and/or its specified lubricant with CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and/or
its lubricant.
Separate and non-interchangeable service equipment must be used for handling each type of refrigerant/lubri-
cant.
Refrigerant container fittings, service hose fittings and service equipment fittings (equipment which handles
refrigerant and/or lubricant) are different between CFC-12 (R-12) and HFC-134a (R-134a). This is to avoid
mixed use of the refrigerants/lubricant.
Never use adapters that convert one size fitting to another: refrigerant/lubricant contamination occurs and
compressor malfunction may result.

REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
Revision: 2006 August
2006 Murano
REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
PFP:KA990
Refrigerant Cycle
NJS000AE
REFRIGERANT FLOW
The refrigerant flows from the compressor, through the condenser with liquid tank, through the evaporator, and
back to the compressor. The refrigerant evaporation in the evaporator is controlled by an externally equalized
expansion valve, located inside the evaporator case.
FREEZE PROTECTION
To prevent evaporator frozen up, the evaporator air temperature is monitored, and the voltage signal to the
unified meter and A/C amp. will make the A/C relay go OFF and stop the compressor.
Refrigerant System Protection
NJS000AF
REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR
The refrigerant system is protected against excessively high- or low-pressure by the refrigerant pressure sen-
sor, located on the condenser. If the system pressure rises above, or falls below the specifications, the refrig-
erant pressure sensor detects the pressure inside the refrigerant line and sends the voltage signal to the ECM.
ECM makes the A/C relay go OFF and stops the compressor when pressure on the high-pressure side
detected by refrigerant pressure sensor is over about 2,746 kPa (28 kg/cm
2
, 398 psi), or below about 134 kPa
(1.4 kg/cm
2
, 20 psi).
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
The refrigerant system is also protected by a pressure relief valve, located in the rear head of the compressor.
When the pressure of refrigerant in the system increases to an unusual level [more than 3,727 kPa (38 kg/cm
2
, 540 psi)], the release port on the pressure relief valve automatically opens and releases refrigerant into the
atmosphere.

LUBRICANT ADJUSTING PROCEDURE FOR COMPRESSOR REPLACEMENT
1.
Before connecting recovery/recycling recharging equipment to vehicle, check recovery/recycling recharg-
ing equipment gauges. No refrigerant pressure should be displayed. If NG, recover refrigerant from equip-
ment lines.
2.
Connect recovery/recycling recharging equipment to vehicle. Confirm refrigerant purity in supply tank
using recovery/recycling recharging equipment and refrigerant identifier. If NG, refer to
3.
Confirm refrigerant purity in vehicle A/C system using recovery/recycling recharging equipment and refrig-
erant identifier. If NG, refer to
ATC-6, "CONTAMINATED REFRIGERANT"
4.
Discharge refrigerant into the refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment. Measure lubricant discharged into
the recovery/recycling equipment.
5.
Drain the lubricant from the old (removed) compressor into a graduated container and recover the amount
of lubricant drained.
6.
Drain the lubricant from the new compressor into a separate, clean container.
7.
Measure an amount of new lubricant installed equal to amount drained from old compressor. Add this
lubricant to new compressor through the suction port opening.
8.
Measure an amount of new lubricant equal to the amount recovered during discharging. Add this lubricant
to new compressor through the suction port opening.
9.
If the liquid tank also needs to be replaced, add another 5 m (0.2 US fl oz., 0.2 Imp fl oz.) of lubricant at
this time.
Do not add this 5 m (0.2 US fl oz., 0.2 Imp fl oz.) of lubricant when replaces the compressor only.
