General Refrigerant Precautions
WARNING:
+Do not release refrigerant into the air. Use approved recovery/recycling equipment to capture the
refrigerant every time an air conditioning system is discharged.
+Always wear eye and hand protection (goggles and gloves) when working with any refrigerant or
air conditioning system.
+Do not store or heat refrigerant containers above 52ÉC.
+Do not heat a refrigerant container with an open ¯ame; if container warming is required, place the
bottom of the container in a warm pail of water.
+Do not intentionally drop, puncture, or incinerate refrigerant containers.
+Keep refrigerant away from open ¯ames: poisonous gas will be produced if refrigerant burns.
+Refrigerant will displace oxygen, therefore be certain to work in well ventilated areas to prevent
suffocation.
+Do not introduce compressed air to any refrigerant container or refrigerant component.
Precautions for Refrigerant Connection
A new type refrigerant connection has been introduced to all refrigerant lines except the following location.
+Expansion valve to cooling unit
+A part of high-pressure line
FEATURES OF NEW TYPE REFRIGERANT CONNECTION
+The O-ring has been relocated. It has also been provided with a groove for proper installation. This elimi-
nates the chance of the O-ring being caught in, or damaged by, the mating part. The sealing direction of
the O-ring is now set vertically in relation to the contacting surface of the mating part to improve sealing
characteristics.
+The reaction force of the O-ring will not occur in the direction that causes the joint to pull out, thereby
facilitating piping connections.
CAUTION:
The new and former refrigerant connections use different O-ring con®gurations. Do not confuse
O-rings since they are not interchangeable. If a wrong O-ring is installed, refrigerant will leak at, or
around, the connection.

This knob controls the outlet air ¯ow.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL KNOB
This knob allows adjustment of the temperature of the outlet air.
RECIRCULATION (REC) SWITCH

Trouble Diagnoses for Abnormal Pressure
Whenever system's high or low-pressure side is abnormal, diagnose using a manifold gauge. The marker
above the gauge scale in the following table indicates the standard (normal) pressure range. Since the stan-
dard (normal) pressure differs from vehicle to vehicle, refer to HA-35 (``Ambient air temperature-to-operating
pressure table'').
Gauge indication Refrigerant cycle Probable cause Corrective action
Both high and low-pressure
sides are too high.
AC359A
+Pressure is reduced soon
after water is splashed on
condenser.Excessive refrigerant charge in
refrigeration cycle.Reduce refrigerant until speci-
®ed pressure is obtained.
Air suction by cooling fan is
insufficient.Insufficient condenser cooling
performance.
¯
j
1Condenser ®ns are clogged.
j
2Improper fan rotation of
cooling fan.+Clean condenser.
+Check and repair cooling fan
as necessary.
+Low-pressure pipe is not
cold.
+When compressor is stopped
high-pressure value quickly
drops by approximately 196
kPa (2.0 bar, 2 kg/cm
2,28
psi). It then decreases gradu-
ally thereafter.Poor heat exchange in con-
denser.
(After compressor operation
stops, high pressure decreases
too slowly.)
¯
Air in refrigeration cycle.Evacuate repeatedly and
recharge system.
Engine tends to overheat. Engine cooling systems mal-
function.Check and repair each engine
cooling system.
+An area of the low-pressure
pipe is colder than areas
near the evaporator outlet.
+Plates are sometimes cov-
ered with frost.+Excessive liquid refrigerant
on low-pressure side.
+Excessive refrigerant dis-
charge ¯ow.
+Expansion valve is open a
little compared with the
speci®cation.
¯
j
1Improper thermal valve
installation.
j
2Improper expansion valve
adjustment.Replace expansion valve.
High-pressure side is too high
and low-pressure side is too
low.
AC360A
Upper side of condenser and
high-pressure side are hot,
however, liquid tank is not so
hot.High-pressure tube or parts
located between compressor
and condenser are clogged or
crushed.+Check and repair or replace
malfunctioning parts.
+Check lubricant for contami-
nation.

Gauge indication Refrigerant cycle Probable cause Corrective action
Low-pressure side sometimes
becomes negative.
AC354A
+Air conditioner system does
not function and does not
cyclically cool the compart-
ment air.
+The system constantly func-
tions for a certain period of
time after compressor is
stopped and restarted.Refrigerant does not discharge
cyclically.
¯
Moisture is frozen at expansion
valve outlet and inlet.
¯
Water is mixed with refrigerant.+Drain water from refrigerant
or replace refrigerant.
+Replace liquid tank.
Low-pressure side becomes
negative.
AC362A
Liquid tank or front/rear side of
expansion valve's pipe is
frosted or dewed.High-pressure side is closed
and refrigerant does not ¯ow.
¯
Expansion valve or liquid tank
is frosted.Leave the system at rest. Start
it again to check whether or not
the problem is caused by water
or foreign particles.
+If water is the cause, initially
cooling is okay. Then the
water freezes, causing a
blockage. Drain water from
refrigerant or replace refriger-
ant.
+If due to foreign particles,
remove expansion valve and
remove the particles with dry
and compressed air.
+If either of the above meth-
ods cannot correct the
problem, replace expansion
valve.
+Replace liquid tank.
+Check lubricant for contami-
nation.
