52B-72SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) - &%~~~~~ures(4) Place the air bag module, with the pad cover face up, in
a flat, spacious area at least 6 meters (20 feet) away
from any people, equipment or other objects. Connect
SRS AIR BAG ADAPTER HARNESS B to the air bag
mdmodule connector on the module’s underside.
(5) At a location as far away from the air bag module as
possible, and from a shielded position, if possible,
disconnect the two connected wires from each other
and connect them to the two terminals of the battery
(removed from the vehicle) to deploy the air bag.
Caution1. Do not perform deployment outside, if a strong
wind is blowing, and if there is even a slight
breeze, the air bag module should be placed anddeployed downwind from the battery.
2. Before deployment, check carefully to be sure
that no one is nearby, because deployment will
cause the air bag module to jump upward about
1.5 to 3 meters (about 5 to 10 feet) into the air.3. The inflator will be quite hot immediately fol-
lowing deployment, so wait at least 30 minutes
to allow it to cool before attempting to handle it.
Although not poisonous, do not inhale gas fromair bag deployment. See Deployed Air Bag
Module Disposal Procedures (as shown below)for post-deployment handling instructions.
4. If the air bag module fails to deploy when the
procedures above are followed, do not go near
the module. Contact your regional Tech Line at
l-800-446-6064 for instructions.\J’
DEPLOYED AIR BAG MODULE DISPOSAL PROCE-
DURESAfter deployment, the air bag module should be placed in a
plastic bag and disposed of in the same manner as any other
scrap parts, except that the following points should be carefully
noted during disposal.
(1) The inflator will be quite hot immediately following deploy-
ment, so wait at least 30 minutes to allow it to cool before
attempting to handle it.
(2) Do not put water or oil on the air bag after deployment.
(3) There may be, adhered to the deployed air bag module,
material that could irritate the eyes and/or skin, so wear
gloves and safety glasses when handling a deployed air bag
module. IF DESPITE THESE PRECAUTIONS, THE MATE-
RIAL DOES, GET INTO THE EYES OR ON THE SKIN,
IMMEDIATELY RINSE THE AFFECTED AREA WITH A
LARGE AMOUNT OF CLEAN WATER.
IF ANY IRRITATION DEVELOPS, SEEK MEDICAL
A-I-TEN-TION.
(4) Put the deployed air bag in a hermetically sealed container
and discarded it.

HEATERS AND MANUAL AIR CONDITIONER - safety Pre=utm55-9
SAFETY PRECAUTIONSR-12 refrigerant is a chlorofluoro-carbon
(CFC) that
can contribute to the depletion of the ozone layer in
the upper atmosphere.
Ozone filters out harmful radiation from the sun.
To assist in protecting the ozone layer, Mitsubishi
Motor Sales of America recommends that a R-12
refrigerant recycling device that meets SAE stan-
dard
J1991 be used.
Contact an automotive service equipment supplier
for refrigerant recycling equipment that is available
in your area.
The refrigerant used in all air conditioner is R-l 2. It is
transparent and colorless in both the liquid and
vapor state. Since it has a boiling point of
-29.8”C(-21.7”F), at atmospheric pressure, it will be a vapor
at all normal temperatures and pressures. The vapor
is heavier than air, non-flammable, and nonexplo-
sive. It is nonpoisonous except when it is in direct
contact with open flame. It is noncorrosive except
when combined with water. The following precau-
tions must be observed when handling R-12.
CautionWear safety goggles when servicing the refri-
geration system.R-12 evaporates so rapidly at normal atmospheric
pressures and temperatures that it tends to freeze
anything it contacts. For this reason, extreme care
must be taken to prevent any liquid refrigerant from
contacting the skin and especially the eyes. Always
wear safety goggles when servicing the refrigera-
tion part of the air conditioning system. Keep a
bottle of sterile mineral oil handy when working on
the refrigeration system. Should any liquid re-
frigerant get into the eyes, use a few drops of
mineral oil to wash them out. R-12 is rapidly
absorbed by the oil. Next splash the eyes with
plenty of cold water. Call your doctor immediately
even though irritation has ceased after treatment.
CautionDo not heat R-12 above 52°C
(125.6”F).
M55PAAFIn most instances, moderate heat is required to
bring the pressure of the refrigerant in its container
above the pressure of the system when charging or
adding refrigerant. A bucket or large pan of hot
water not over 52°C
(125.6”F) is all the heat required
for this purpose. Do not heat the refrigerant contain-
er with a blow torch or any other means that would
raise temperature and pressure above this tempera-
ture. Do not weld or steam clean on or near the
system components or refrigerant lines.
Caution
Keep R-12 containers upright when charging the
system.When metering R-12 into the refrigeration system,
keep the supply tank or cans in an upright position. If
the refrigerant container is on its side or upside
down, liquid refrigerant will enter the system and
damage the compressor.
CautionAlways work in a well-ventilated room.
Good ventilation is vital in the working area.
Although R-12 vapor is normally nonpoisonous,
contact with an open flame can cause the vapor to
become very poisonous. A poisonous gas is pro-
duced when using the flame-type leak detector.
Avoid inhaling the fumes from the leak detector.
CautionDo not allow liquid refrigerant to touch bright
metal.Refrigerant will tarnish bright metal and chrome
surfaces, and in combination with moisture can
severely corrode all metal surfaces.

DISCHARGING SYSTEMUse the refrigerant recovery unit to discharge refrigerant gas
from the system.
NOTERefer to that Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling Unit Instruc-
tion Manual for operation of the unit.
REFILLING OF OIL IN THE AIR CONDITIONER SYSTEM
Too little oil will provide inadequate compressor lubrication and
cause a compressor failure. Too much oil will ,increase
discharge air temperature.
When a
FX-105VS compressor is installed at the factory, it
contains
160 cc (9.8 cu.in.) of refrigerant oil. While the air
conditioning system is in operation, the oil is carried through
the entire system by the refrigerant.
Some of this oil will be trapped and retained in various parts of
the system.
When the following system components are charged, it is
necessary to add oil to the system to replace the oil being
removed with the component.
Condenser: 8 cc
(5 cu.in.)Evaporator: 72 cc (4.4
cu.in.)Piping: 9.6 cc
(6 cu.in.)Receiver drier: 6.4 cc
(.4 cu.in.)

HEATERS AND MANUAL AIR CbNDlTlONER -Service Adjustment Procedures 55 17
ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES(1) Select a quiet area for testing. Duplicate conditions as much
as possible. Switch compressor on and off several times to
clearly identify compressor noise.
To duplicate high ambient conditions (high head pressure),
restrict air flow through condenser. Install manifold gauge
set to make sure discharge pressure doesn’t exceed 2,070
kPa (300 psi).
(2) Tighten all compressor mounting bolts, clutch mounting
bolt, and compressor drive belt. Check to assure clutch coil
is tight (no rotation or wobble).
(3) Check refrigerant hoses for rubbing or interference that can
cause unusual noises.
(4) Check refrigerant charge. (See “Charging System”.)
(5) Recheck compressor noise as in Step 1.
(6) If noise still exists, loosen compressor mounting bolts and
retorque. Repeat Step 1.
(7) If noise continues, replace compressor and repeat Step 1.
POWER RELAY CHECKMBBFNAK(1) Remove the radiator fan motor relays (HI) and (LO) from the
relay box on the right of the engine compartment.
(2) Remove the radiator fan motor relay (air conditioner),
condenser fan motor relays (HI) and (LO), and
air-conditioner compressor relay from the relay box on the left
of the engine compartment.
(3) Remove the blower motor relay from the junction box.
(4) Remove the blower motor HI relay from the blower case
assembly.
(5) Check the continuity between terminals using a circuit
tester.
