What is used in vehicles is called Refrigerant, freon is just a brand name used by the DuPont corporation. .......
no, losing the manual would not cause the car to use freon.
No, Freon is no longer used in vehicles' cooling system. Should you take your car in for maintenance, the mechanic will use a special vacuum to remove and properly dispose of the Freon. The mechanic will then use R-134, a replacement for Freon.
It's too volatile.
Freon is the trade name for R12. Your car contains R134 or R134a which is not Freon.
Your car uses refrigerant not Freon. Freon is a brand name put out by DuPont. All ac systems use refrigerant often mistakenly called Freon. All of them!!! Check for a decal under the hood or on the compressor for the information you seek. I believe that around 1996 car makers started using R-134A instead of R-12 refrigerant. Hope this helps.
R134a
you use freon to cool your car and make the air conditioner work
It depends on the year of your car. If your car is 94 and newer than you would use R-134A refrigerant.
It is illegal to use #12 due to damage to ozone layer
