Checking The Amount Of Air Conditioner Refrigerant And Compressor Lubricant - Kia Carens 2014 Manual

Features of your vehicle
Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant and
compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air condi-
tioning is reduced. Overfilling also
has a bad influence on the air condi-
tioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, we recommend that the system
be inspected by an authorized Kia
dealer.
