Heating and Air Conditioning
A/C Service Tips and Precautions
Compressed air mixed with R- 134a forms a
combustible vapor.
The vapor can burn or explode causing serious
injury.
Never use compressed air to pressure test
R-134a service equipment or vehicle air
conditioning systems.
Air conditioning refrigerant or lubricant vapor
can irritate your eyes, nose, or throat.
Be careful when connecting service equipment.
Do not breathe refrigerant or vapor.
The air conditioning system uses HFC-134a (R-134a)
ref rigerant and polyalkyleneglycol (PAG) ref rigerant oil,
which are not compatible with CFC'12 (R-12) refrigerant
and mineral oil. Do not use R-'12 refrigerant or mineral
oil in this system, and do not aftempt to use R 12
servicing equipment; damage to the air conditioning
system or your servicing equipment will result.
Use only service equipment that is U.L.-listed and is
certified to meet the requirements of SAE J2210 to
remove R-134a from the air conditioning system.
lf accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate the
work area before resuming service.
R-134a service equipment or vehicle air conditioning
systems should not be pressure tested or leak tested
with compressed air.
Additional health and safety information may be
obtained from the refrigerant and lubricant
manufacturers.
. Always disconnect the negative cable from the
battery whenever replacing air conditioning parts.
. Keep moisture and dirt out of the system. When
disconnecting any lines, plug or cap the fittings
immediately; don't remove the caps or plugs until
iust be{ore you reconnect each line.' Before connecting any hose or line, apply a few drops
of relrigerant oil to the O-ring.. When tightening or loosening a fitting, use a second
wrench to support the matching fitting.. When discharging the system, use a R-'134a
ref rigerant recovery/recycling/charging station; don't
release refrigerant into the atmosphere.

This vehicle uses HFC-134a (R-'134a) refrigerant which does not contain ch lorofluorocarbons. Pay attention to the
following service items:
. Do not mix refrigerants CFC-12 (R-12) and HFC-134a (R-134a). They are notcompatible.. Use onlythe recommended polyalkyleneglycol (PAG ) refrigera nt oil (KElHlN SP '!0) designedfortheR-134a
compressor. Intermixing the recommended (PAG) refrigerant oil with any other retrigerant oil will result in
compressor failu re.. AllAy'C system parts (compressor, discharge line, suction line, evaporator, condenser, receiver/dryer. expansion
valve, O-rings for joints) have to be designed for refrigerant R 134a. Do not exchange with R-'12 parts.
. Use a halogen gas leak detector designed for refrigerant R-134a.. R-12 and R-134a refrigerant servicing equipment are not interchangeable. Use only a recovery/recycling/charging
station that is U.L.-listed and is certified to meet the requirements of SAE J2210 to service R-134a air conditioning
system.. Always recover the refrigerant R-134a with an approved recovery/recycling/charging station before disconnecting
any Ay'C fifting.

Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/recycling/
charging station (see page 21-53).
Remove the bolt, then disconnect the suction line
(A) and the receiver line (B)from the evaporator
core.

Remove the blower unit (see page 21-39).
Remove the self-tapping screws and the expansion
valve cover.
21-42
5. Carefully pull out the evaporator core without
bending the pipes.
Installthe core in the reverse order of removal, and
note these items.
. lfyou're installing a new evaporator core, add
refrigerant oil (KElHlN SP-]0) (see page 21-6).. Replace the O-rings with new ones at each fitting,
and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil before
installing them. Be sure to use the correct O-rings
for HFC-134a (R-'134a) to avoid leakage.. lmmediatelyafter usingthe oil, reinstallthecap
on the container, and seal it to avoid moisture
absorotion.. Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle; it
may damage the paint. lf the refrigerant oil
contacts the paint, wash it off immediately.. Charge the system (see page 21-55).
6.

Heater Unit/Core Replacement
SRS components are located in this area. Review the
SRS component locations (see page 23'13), and
precautions and procedures (see page 23-14) in the SRS
section before performing repairs or service.
1. Make sure you have the anti-theft code forthe radio,
then write down the freouencies for the radio's
Dreset buttons.
4.
Disconnect the negative cable from the battery,
Disconnect the suction and receiver lines from the
evaporator core (see page 21-42).
From under the hood, open the cable clamp (A),
then disconnect the heater valve cable (B) from the
heater valve arm (C). Turn the heater valve arm to
the fully opened position as shown
When the engine is cool, drain the engine coolant
from the radiator (see page 10-6).
6. Slide the hose clamps (A) back, the n d isconnect the
inlet heater hose (B) and the outlet heater hose (C)
from the heater core. Engine coolant will run out
when the hoses are disconnected; drain it into a
clean drip pan. Be sure not to let coolant spill on
the electrical parts or the painted surfaces. lf any
coolant spills, rinse it off immediately.
Remove the bolt and the heater valve, then remove
the mounting nut from the heater unit. Take care
not to damage or bend the fuel lines and the brake
lines, etc.

Heating and Air Conditioning
System Evacuation
Use only service equipment that is U.L.-listed and is
certified to meet the requirements of SAE J2210 to
remove HFC-134a (R-134a)from the air conditioninq
system.
lf accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate the
work area before resuming service.
Additional health and safety information may be
obtained from the refrigerant and lubricant
manufacturers.
1. When an Ay'C system has been opened to the
atmosphere, such as during installation or repair, it
must be evacuated using a R-134a refrigerant
recovery/recycling/charging station (lf the system
has been open for several days, the receiver/dryer
should be replaced, and the system should be
evacuated for several hours.)
. Air conditioning refrigerant or lubricant vapor
can irritate your eyes, nose, or throat.. Be carefulwhen connecting service equipment.. Do not breathe refrigerant or vapor.
21-54
2. Connect a R-134a refrigerant recovery/recycling/
charging station (A)to the high-pressure servicepon (B) and the low-pressure service port (C), as
shown, following the equipment manufacturer's
instructions. Evacuate the system.
lf the low-pressure does not reach more than 93.3
kPa {700 mmHg, 27.6 in.Hg) in 15 minutes, there isprobably a leak in the system. Partially charge the
system, and check for leaks (see step 3 on page 21-
56).
