PRECAUTION
1. DO NOT HANDLE REFRIGERANT IN AN ENCLOSED
AREA OR NEAR AN OPEN FLAME
2. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION
3. BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET LIQUID REFRIGERANT IN
YOUR EYES OR ON YOUR SKIN
If liquid refrigerant gets in your eyes or on your skin.
(a) Wash the area with lots of cool water.
CAUTION:
Do not rub your eyes or skin.
(b) Apply clean petroleum jelly to the skin.
(c) Go immediately to a physician or hospital for professional
treatment.
4. NEVER HEAT CONTAINER OR EXPOSE IT TO NAKED
FLAME
5. BE CAREFUL NOT TO DROP CONTAINER AND NOT
TO APPLY PHYSICAL SHOCKS TO IT
6. DO NOT OPERATE COMPRESSOR WITHOUT
ENOUGH REFRIGERANT IN REFRIGERANT SYSTEM
If there is not enough refrigerant in the refrigerant system oil lu-
brication will be insufficient and compressor burnout may occur,
so take care to avoid this, necessary care should be taken.
7. DO NOT OPEN HIGH PRESSURE MANIFOLD VALVE
WHILE COMPRESSOR IS OPERATING
If the high pressure valves opened, refrigerant flows in the re-
verse direction and could cause the charging cylinder to rup-
ture, so open and close the only low pressure valve.
8. BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERCHARGE SYSTEM WITH
REFRIGERANT
If refrigerant is overcharged, it causes problems such as insuffi-
cient cooling, poor fuel economy, engine overheating etc.

REMOVAL
1. DISCHARGE REFRIGERANT FROM REFRIGERATION
SYSTEM
HINT:
At the time of installation, please refer to the following item.
Evacuate air from refrigeration system.
Charge system with refrigerant and inspect for leakage of refrig-
erant.
Specified amount: 600 ± 50 g (21.16 ± 1.76 oz.)
2. DRAIN ENGINE COOLANT FROM RADIATOR
HINT:
It is not necessary to drain out all coolant.
3. DISCONNECT LIQUID TUBE AND SUCTION HOSE
FROM A/C UNIT
Remove the bolt and slide the plate, then disconnect the both
tubes.
Torque: 10 N´m (100 kgf´cm, 7 ft´lbf)
NOTICE:
Cap the open fittings immediately to keep moisture or dirt
out of the system.
HINT:
At the time of installation, please refer to the following item.
Lubricate 2 new O±rings with compressor oil and install them
to the tubes.
4. DISCONNECT WATER HOSES FROM HEATER RA-
DIATOR PIPES
(a) Grips the claws of the hose clip and slide the hose clip
along the hose.
(b) Disconnect the water hose.

5. MAKE THESE VISUAL CHECKS:
(a) Leakage of grease from the clutch bearing.
(b) Signs of oil on the pressure plate or rotor.
6. INSPECT MAGNETIC CLUTCH BEARING FOR NOISE
(a) Start engine.
(b) Check for abnormal noise from the compressor when the
A/C switch is OFF.
If abnormal noise is being emitted, replace the rotor of magnetic
clutch.
7. INSPECT MAGNETIC CLUTCH OPERATION
(a) Disconnect the connector.
(b) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
3 and the negative (±) lead to the body ground.
(c) Check that the magnetic clutch is energized.
If operation is not as specified, replace the magnetic clutch.
