refrigerant container.
1) Make sure the evacuation process is correctly completed.
2) Connect the center-hose of the manifold gauge to the
refrigerant container.
Turn the charge valve handle counterclockwise to purge
to the charging line and purge any air exiting in the
center-hose of the manifold gauge.
3) Open the low-pressure hand valve and charge the
refrigerant about 200 g (0.44 lbs.).
Make sure the high-pressure hand valve is closed.
Avoid charging the refrigerant by turning the refrigerant
container upside down.
4) Close the low-pressure hand valve of the manifold gauge.
Check to ensure that the degree of pressure does not
change.
5) Check the refrigerant leaks by using a HFC-134a leak
detector.
If a leak occurs, repair the leak connection, and start all
over again from the first step of evacuation.
6) If no leaks are found, open the low-pressure hand valve of
the manifold gauge. Then continue charging refrigerant to
the system.
When charging the system becomes difficult:
(1) Run the engine at Idling and close the all vehicle
doors.
(2) A/C switch is "ON".
(3) Set the fan control knob (fan switch) to its highest
position.
(4) Set air soure selector lever to “RECIRC”
WARNING
BE ABSOLUTELY SURE NOT TO OPEN THE HIGH-
PRESSURE HAND VALVE. SHOULD THE HIGH-
PRESSURE HAND VALVE BE OPENED, THE HIGH-
PRESSURE REFRIGERANT GAS WOULD FLOW
BACKWARD, AND THIS MAY CAUSE THE REFRIGERANT
CONTAINER TO BURST.
7) When the refrigerant container is emptied, use the following
procedure to replace it with a new refrigerant container.
(1) Close the low-pressure hand valve.
(2) Raise the needle upward and remove the charge valve.
(3) Reinstall the charge valve to the new refrigerant
container.
(4) Purge any air existing in the center hose of the manifold
gauge.
8) Charge the system to the specified amount and then close
the low-pressure hand valve.

Reading Sight Glass
High and low
pressure pipe
temperature The high pressure
pipe is hot and the
low pressure pipe
is cold. There is a
distinct difference
in temperature
between them. The high pressure
pipe is warm and
the low pressure
pipe is cool. There
is no great
difference in
temperature
between them. There is little
difference in
temperature
between the high
pressure pipe and
the low pressure
pipe. The high pressure
pipe is hot and the
low pressure pipe
is slightly warm.
There is a
difference in
temperature
between them.
Sight glass
condition Almost transparent.
A flow of bubbles
can be seen, but
they disappear
when the throttle is
opened.
A flow of bubbles
always can be
seen. It appears
sometimes
transparent, and
sometimes frothy.
Something like fog
faintly can be seen.
Evan at idle with
the fan at "HI" (with
the window fully
open), the bubbles
cannot be seen.

The sight glass provides accurate diagnosis only under the following conditions.
If the vehicle can be tested under these conditions, check the sight glass appearance and compare to the chart.
* Engine speed Idling
* A/C switch "ON"
* Blower fan operating at highest speed
* Air source selector lever at "RECIRC"
* Temperature control knob at coldest position
* Ambient temperature below 35
C (95
F) and humidity below 70% (See NOTE 1)
* High side pressure less than 1470 kPa (15 kg/cm
2 / 213 PSI) (See NOTE 2)
NOTE 1
If the vehicle cannot be moved to a testing location that meets these specifications, then the sight glass cannot be
used for diagnosis. You must discharge and recover the refrigerant, then recharge the system with the specified
amount of refrigerant. Then continue checking the system performance.
NOTE 2
If the high side pressure is greater than stated, the sight glass cannot be used for diagnosis. You must discharge
and recover the refrigerant, then recharge the system with the specified amount of refrigerant. Then continue
checking system performance.

OIL RETURN OPERATION
There is close affinity between the oil and the refrigerant.
During normal operation, part of the oil recirculates with the
refrigerant in the system.
When checking the amount of oil in the system, or replacing
any component of the system, the compressor must be run in
advance for oil return operation. The procedure is as follows:
1) Open the all doors and engine hood.
2) Start the engine and A/C switch is "ON" and Set the fan
control knob at its highest position.
3) Run the compressor for more than 20 minutes between
800 and 1,000 rpm in order to operate the system.
4) Stop the engine.
REPLACEMENT OF COMPONENT PARTS
When replacing system component parts, supply the following
amount of oil to the component parts to be installed.
Component parts to be installed Amount of oil
Evaporator 50 cm3 (1.7 fl.oz.)
Condenser 30 cm3 (1.0 fl.oz.)
Receiver/drier 30 cm3 (1.0 fl.oz.)
Refrigerant line (One piece) 10 cm3 (0.3 fl.oz.)
Refrigeration oil must be replenished if more than two parts
are removed at the same time. After installing these
components, check compressor oil.
