eral Procedures
WARNING: Working on the fuel system re sults in fuel and fuel vapor being present in the atmosphere. Fuel vapor is
extremely flammable, hence great care must be taken whilst working on the fuel system. Adhere strictly to the following
precautions:
D
o not smoke in the work area
Di

splay
NO SMOKING signs around the work area
D
isconnect the battery before
working on the fuel system
Av
oid sparks
Make sure sui

table fire ex
tinguishers are at hand
Make sure absor
bent material is at
hand to soak up any spillage
Make sure the work area is
well ventilated
M

ake sure that the gauge is correctly conn
ected, and that all connections are secure BEFORE starting the engine
DO N
OT
disconnect the gauge from the schrader valve while the engine is running
Make su
re the schrader valve reseals once the gauge is disconnected
• NOTE: Depending on the design of the ga uge set, there may be a drain valve and tube. Make sure this valve is closed, and
the drain tube placed in a suitable container BEFORE connecting the gauge to the schrader valve.


1. Make sure the vehi
cle is in
Park for vehicles with automatic
transmission, Neutral for vehicles with manual transmission.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Place suitable absorbent material around the schrader valve to
absorb any spillage when connecting the gauge set.
4. Remove the protective cap from the schrader valve.
5. Connect the gauge, using adaptors if required.
6. Remove the absorbent material and dispose of safely.
7. Disconnect and plug the vacuum hose from the pressure
regulator.
8. Start the engine and record the fuel pressure reading.
As a gui
de, the fuel pressu
re should be approximately 3.0
bar (44.1 psi) with the regulator disconnected.
9. With the engine still running, reconnect the vacuum hose to
the pressure regulator an d record the reading.
Th
e pressure should dr
op to approximately 2.6 bar (38
psi) when the vacuum hose is reconnected.
10. Switch off the engine.
11. Place more absorbent material around the schrader valve.
12. Where fitted, open the drain valve and allow the fuel from the
gauge and line to flow into the container to depressurize the
system.
13. Disconnect and remove the gauge set and any adaptors.
14. Clean up any fuel which may have been spilt and remove the
absorbent material. Dispose of safely.
15. Refit and secure the protective cap to the schrader valve.
16. Reconnect the fuel pressure regulator vacuum hose.
17. Start the engine and make sure there are no leaks.

9. Fr
om under the vehicle, identify the fuel feed and return
tank/pipe connections which are located above and slightly to
the rear of the rear axle assembly.
1. Locate the fuel feed pipe.
2. Locate the fuel return pipe.

WARNING: NEVER USE A CFC 12 ANALYZ
ER OR NAKED FLAME TYPE.
Leak tests should be carried out with a UV spot lamp or an electronic analyzer which is dedicated to HFC 134A refrigerant.
Handling Lubricati
ng Oil
Av
oid breathing lubricant mist; it can cau
s
e irritation to the respiratory system.
Always use fresh oil from a sealed containe r and do not leave oil exposed to the atmosphere for any reason other than to fill
or empty a system. PAG oil is very hygr oscopic (absorbs water) and will rapidly become contaminated by atmospheric
moisture.

PAG oil is NOT compatible with previously used mineral based oi ls and must NEVER be mixed. Do not re-use oil when it has
been separated from refrigerant, following a re covery cycle. Dispose of used oil safely.
System Maintenance
Plug pipes an
d units immediatel
y after disconnection an d do not remove the plugs until immediately before making the
connection. Do not leave the system open to atmosphere.
The receiver drier must be renewed if the compressor has failed or if it is susp ected that debris may be present in the
system.
It is not always necessary to renew th e receiver drier if the correct procedur es have been followed. However, if a
component or part of the system is left dismantled for more than five minutes, it may be advisable to renew the receiver
drier. This guidance is based on UK average humidity levels; lo cations with lower humidity levels will be less critical to
moisture contamination. It must be stressed however th at there is not a safe period for work to be carried out in.
Do not use any replacement parts su pplied without transit plugs and seals - return them to the supplier.
Diagnostic equipment for pres sure, mass and volume should be calibrated regularly and certified by a third party
organization.
Use extreme care when handling and securi ng aluminum fittings; always use a backing spanner and take special care when
handling the evaporator.
Use only the correct or re commended tools for the job and apply the manufacturer's torque specifications.

AUTION: Only use hoses with connectors wh

Stabilizing the System

1.
At
tach the center (service) hose to a vacuum pump and start
the pump. Open fully both high and low valves and allow the
vacuum to remove air and mois ture from the manifold set for
at least five minutes.
CAUTION: It is imperative th at the vacuum pump is not
subjected to a positi ve pressure of any degree. Therefore the
pump must be fitted wi th an isolation valve at the center (service
hose) connection and this valve mu st be closed before the pump
is switched off. This operation replaces the 'purge' procedure used
on previous systems. Observe the manufacturer's
recommendation with regard to vacuum pump oil changes.
Turn the vacuum pump off and isol ate it from the center service
hose but do not open the hose to atmosphere.
1. Att
achment of the hose quick release connectors to the high
and low side system ports is stra ightforward, provided that the
high and low valves are closed and the system is NOT
operational.
WARNING: UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THE
CONNECTIONS BE MADE WITH THE SYSTEM IN OPERATION OR
THE VALVES OPEN. SHOULD THE VALVES BE OPEN AND A
VACUUM PUMP OR REFRIGERANT CONTAINER ATTACHED, AN
EXPLOSION COULD OCCUR AS A RESULT OF HIGH PRESSURE
REFRIGERANT BEING FORCED BACK INTO THE VACUUM PUMP OR
CONTAINER.
Assessment of system operating efficiency and fault
classification may be achieved by using the facilities on your
Recovery / Recharging / Recycling station, follow the
manufacturer's instructions implicitly and observe all safety
considerations.
1. Accurate test gauge data wi
ll on
ly be attained if the system
temperatures and pressures are stabilized.
E
nsure that equipment and hoses cannot come into
contact with engine moving parts or sources of heat.
It is recommended th at a free standing air
mover is placed
in front of the vehicle to provide air flow through the
condenser / cooling system.
St
art the engine, allow it to attain normal working
temperature and set at fast idle (typically 1200 to 1500
rpm).


Select full

air condit
ioning performance.
With
all temperatures and pres
sures stable, or displaying
symptoms of faults; begin relevant test procedures.

WARNING: USE EXTREME CARE AND OBSERVE ALL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS RELATED TO THE USE OF REFRIGERANTS.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY.
CAUTION: The A/C refrigerant analyzer mu st be used before the recovery of any vehicle' s A/C refrigerant. Failure to
do so puts workshop bulk refrigerant at risk of contamination. If the vehicle A/C refrigerant is contaminated, refer the
customer to return to the repair facility that carried out the last A/C repair. If the customer wishes to pay the additional
cost, use the A/C recovery equipment that is designated for recovering contaminated A/C refrige rant. All contaminated A/C
refrigerant must be disposed of as hazardous waste. To prevent possible pe rsonal injury, for all equipment, follow the
equipment manufacturer's procedures and instructions.
• NOTE: Jaguar Cars Ltd. supports the effi cient usage, recovery and recycling of the refrigera nt used in passenger car air
conditioners. Jaguar Cars Ltd. recommend s the use of UL-approved recovery/recycling equipment during any A/C system
repair and recharge procedure which requ ires that the system be evacuated.


1. Us
e UL-approved recovery/recycling equipment to evacuate
and recover the A/C system.
Follow t h
