PRECAUTIONSANDPREPARATION
Precautions forServicing Compressor

• Plug allopenings toprevent moisture andforeign matterfromentering.
• When thecompressor isremoved, storeitin the same position asitis when mounted onthe car.
• When replacing orrepairing compressor, follow"Maintenance ofLubricant QuantityinCompressor"
exactly. RefertoHA-68.
• Keep friction surfaces betweenclutchandpulley clean.
If
the surface iscontaminated, withlubricant,
wipe itoff byusing aclean waste clothmoistened withthinner.
• After compressor serviceoperation, turnthecompressor shaftbyhand more thanfiveturns inboth
directions. Thiswillequally distribute lubricantinsidethecompressor. Afterthecompressor is
installed, letthe engine idleandoperate thecompressor forone hour.
• After replacing thecompressor magnetclutch,applyvoltage tothe new oneandcheck fornormal
operation.

1. Check blower

1) Turn fancontrol knobto1-speed.
Blower shouldoperate on1-speed.
2) Then turnfancontrol knobto2-speed.
3) Continue checking blowerspeeduntilallfour speeds are
checked.
4) Leave blower on4-speed.

2. Check discharge air.

1) Turn mode control knob.
2) Confirm thatdischarge aircomes outaccording tothe air
distribution tableatleft.
