PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Service of Compressor
INFOID:0000000005930830
• Plug all openings to prevent moisture and foreign matter from entering.
• When the compressor is removed, store it in th e same position as it is when mounted on the car.
• When replacing or repairing compressor, follow “Maintenance of Oil Quantity in Compressor”
exactly. Refer to MTC-17, "
Maintenance of Oil Quantity in Compressor".
• Keep friction surfaces between clut ch and pulley clean. If the surface is contaminated, with oil, wipe
it off by using a clean waste cloth moistened with thinner.
• After compressor service operation, turn the compresso r shaft by hand more than five turns in both
directions. This will equally distribute oil inside the compressor. After the compressor is installed,
let the engine idle and operate the compressor for one hour.
• After replacing the compressor magnet clutch, ap ply voltage to the new one and check for usual
operation.
Precaution for Service EquipmentINFOID:0000000005930831
RECOVERY/RECYCLING EQUIPMENT
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for machine operation and machine maintenance. Never
introduce any refrigerant other than that specified into the machine.
ELECTRONIC LEAK DETECTOR
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instruct ions for tester operation and tester maintenance.
VACUUM PUMP
The oil contained inside the vacuum pump is not compatible with the
specified oil for HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C systems. The vent side of
the vacuum pump is exposed to atmospheric pressure. So the vac-
uum pump oil may migrate out of the pump into the service hose.
This is possible when the pump is switched off after evacuation (vac-
uuming) and hose is connected to it.
To prevent this migration, use a manual valve placed near the hose-
to-pump connection, as follows.
• Usually vacuum pumps have a manual isolator valve as part of the pump. Close this valve to isolat e the service hose from the pump.
• For pumps without an isolator, use a hose equipped with a manual shut-off valve near the pump end. Close the valve to isolate the
hose from the pump.
• If the hose has an automatic shut -off valve, disconnect the hose
from the pump. As long as the hose is connected, the valve is open
and lubricating oil may migrate.
Some one-way valves open when vacuum is applied and close
under a no vacuum condition. Such valves may restrict the pump’s
ability to pull a deep vacuum and are not recommended.
MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
Be certain that the gauge face indicates HFC-134a or R-134a. Be
sure the gauge set has 1/2 ″-16 ACME threaded connections for ser-
vice hoses. Confirm the set has been used only with refrigerant
HFC-134a (R-134a) and specified oils.

creases gradually thereaf-
ter. Poor heat exchange in condenser
(After compressor operation stops,
high-pressure decreases too slowly.).
↓

near the evaporator outlet.
• Plates are sometimes cov- ered with frost. • Excessive liquid refrigerant on low-
pressure side.
• Excessive refrigerant discharge flow.
• Expansion valve is open a little
compared with the specification.

Insufficient HeatingINFOID:0000000005930855
SYMPTOM: Insufficient heating
INSPECTION FLOW
1.CONFIRM SYMPTOM BY PERFORMING OPERAT IONAL CHECK - TEMPERATURE INCREASE
1. Turn temperature control dial clockwise to maximum heat position.
2. Check for hot air at discharge air outlets.
Can the symptom be duplicated?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK FOR ANY SYMPTOMS
Perform a complete operational check for any symptoms. Refer to MTC-31, "
Operational Check" .
Does another symptom exist?
YES >> Refer to MTC-23, "How to Perform Trouble Diagnosis for Quick and Accurate Repair" .
NO >> System OK.
3.CHECK FOR SERVICE BULLETINS
Check for any service bulletins.
>> GO TO 4.
4.CHECK COOLANT SYSTEM
1. Check engine coolant level. Refer to CO-11, "
Inspection" (HR16DE) or CO-36, "Inspection" (MR18DE).
2. Check hoses for leaks or kinks.
3. Check Radiator cap. Refer to CO-14, "
Checking Radiator Cap" HR16DE or CO-39, "Checking Radiator
Cap" (MR18DE).
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 5.
NG >> Repair/replace as necessary.
5.CHECK AIR MIX DOOR CABLE
Check air mix door cable operation. Refer to MTC-65, "
Air Mix Door Cable Adjustment" .
OK or NG
Gauge indication Refrigerant cycleProbable causeCorrective action
Low-pressure side becomes nega-
tive. Liquid tank or front/rear side of
expansion valve’s pipe is frost-
ed or dewed.High-pressure side is closed
and refrigerant does not flow.
↓
Expansion valve or liquid tank
is frosted.Leave the system at rest until
no frost is present. Start it
again to check whether or not
the malfunction is caused by
water or foreign particles.
• If water is the cause, initially
cooling is okay. Then the wa-
ter freezes causing a block-
age. Drain water from
refrigerant or replace refrig-
erant.
• If due to foreign particles, re-
move expansion valve and
remove the particles with dry
and compressed air (not
shop air).
• If either of the above meth- ods cannot correct the mal-
function, replace expansion
valve.
• Replace liquid tank.
• Check oil for contamination.
