Variable Displacement A/C Compressor
This model comes with a variable displacement A/C compressor. Compared to a standard A/C compressor that can
only deliver a 100 percent stroke, this compressor can deliver a stroke anywhere from zero to 100 percent. This
provides the following benefits:
•
Better acceleration and fuel economy
•
A more stable engine idle and less noise and vibration
•
More consistent temperature output
The A/C system also uses R-1234yf refrigerant, which requires special service equipment. See the service information
for details.

For more details on the EPB, see the owner's manual.
