Air Conditioning (G2200059): Overview
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2021 Jaguar I-Pace, 2020 Jaguar I-Pace, and 2019 Jaguar I-Pace. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
Do not do any work on the electric High Voltage (HV) system until the HA
system on the vehicle is powered down.
The Air Conditioning (A/C) system cools the passenger compartment. The A/C system is also used as a heat transfer system to move heat to and from various systems in the vehicle.
The operation of the A/C system is controlled by the HVAC control module and is responsible for the temperature control of the following:
- Passenger compartment cooling.
- For additional information, refer to: CONTROL COMPONENTS .
- For additional information, refer to: HEATING AND VENTILATION .
- The Electric Vehicle (EV) battery temperature control system cooling.
- For additional information, Refer to: ELECTRIC VEHICLE BATTERY TEMPERATURE CONTROL .
- The electric drive temperature control system heat for the passenger compartment when required.
- For additional information, Refer to: ELECTRIC DRIVE TEMPERATURE CONTROL .
The A/C system is a sealed closed-loop system, filled with refrigerant as the heat transfer medium.
- HFO1234yf refrigerant is used in North American Specification (NAS) and European markets.
- R134a refrigerant is used in the Rest Of World (ROW) markets.
WARNING:
- Only use SP-A2 oil in the Air Conditioning (A/C) system. Incorrect oil in the A/C system can decrease the internal resistance of the electric A/C compressor. This can cause death or injury from electric shock.
- Only use Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) approved refrigerant leak detection dye that is applicable for use with the electric Air Conditioning (A/C) compressor. Incorrect refrigerant leak detection dye in the A/C system can decrease the internal resistance of the electric A/C compressor. This can cause death or injury from electric shock.
SP-A2 oil is added to the refrigerant to lubricate the internal components of the electric A/C compressor.
