REMOVAL
I - REMOVAL PREPARATION OPERATION
aPosition the vehicle on a two-post lift (see Vehicle:
Towing and lifting) (02A, Lifting equipment).aDrain the refrigerant circuit using a refrigerant
charging station (see 62A, Air conditioning, Re-
frigerant circuit: Draining - Filling, page 62A-8) .
aDrain the cooling system (see Cooling system:
Draining - Refilling) (19A, Cooling).
aDisconnect the battery (see ) (80A, Battery).
aRemove:
-the front wheels (see Wheel: Removal - Refitting)
(35A, Wheels and tyres),
-the front bumper (see Front bumper: Removal -
Refitting) (55A, Exterior protection),
-the radiator mounting cross member (see Radiator
mounting cross member: Removal - Refitting)
(41A, Front upper structure).
II - OPERATION FOR REMOVAL OF PART
CONCERNED
aRemove the cooling radiator (see Cooling radiator:
Removal - Refitting) (19A, Cooling). Equipment required
refrigerant charging station
compressed air nozzle
IMPORTANT
To avoid all risk of damage to the systems, apply
the safety and cleanliness instructions and opera-
tion recommendations before carrying out any
repair:
- (see 62A, Air conditioning, Air conditioning:
Precautions for the repair, page 62A-1) ,
- (see Vehicle: Precautions for the repair) (01D,
Mechanical introduction).
Note:
Use blanking plugs for the fuel circuits with part
numbers 77 01 208 229 or 77 01 476 857 to plug
any openings exposed to the open air. They must
be clean. Do not use any which have already been
used to plug a fuel circuit.
WARNING
To prevent moisture from entering the system,
place plugs on the cold loop components which are
open to the air.
WARNING
In order to avoid any refrigerant leaks, do not dam-
age (deform, twist, etc.) the pipe.
WARNING
Consult the device's operating manual to avoid
incorrect use.D4F, and 780 – K9K – K4M

aUse a compressed air nozzle to blow on the sur-
face and the seal of the connecting pipe.
aLubricate the surface of the connecting pipe and the
seal with air conditioning oil (see 62A, Air condi-
tioning, Air conditioning: Parts and consum-
ables for the repair, page 62A-2) .
aRemove the blanking plugs.
II - REFITTING OPERATION FOR PART
CONCERNED
aRefit the condenser from underneath.
aPosition the condenser on the cooling radiator.
aClip the retaining brackets on each side of the con-
denser.
aRefit the bolts on each side of the condenser.
aFit the « dehydrator reservoir - expansion valve »
connecting pipe on the dehydrator reservoir.
aRefit the bolt of the « dehydrator reservoir - expan-
sion valve » connecting pipe on the dehydrator res-
ervoir.
aFit the « condenser - compressor » connecting pipe
on the condenser.
aRefit the bolt of the « condenser - compressor » con-
necting pipe on the condenser.aPosition the air deflector.
aRefit the cooling radiator (see Cooling radiator: Re-
moval - Refitting) (19A, Cooling).
III - FINAL OPERATION
aRefit:
-the radiator mounting cross member (see Radiator
mounting cross member: Removal - Refitting)
(41A, Front upper structure),
-the front bumper (see Front bumper: Removal -
Refitting) (55A, Exterior protection),
-the front wheels (see Wheel: Removal - Refitting)
(35A, Wheels and tyres).
aFill up and bleed the cooling system (see Cooling
system: Draining - Refilling) (19A, Cooling).
aConsult the amount of refrigerant and oil required
before filling the air conditioning circuit (see 62A, Air
conditioning, Air conditioning: Parts and con-
sumables for the repair, page 62A-2) .
aFill the refrigerant circuit using a refrigerant charg-
ing station (see 62A, Air conditioning, Refriger-
ant circuit: Draining - Filling, page 62A-8) .
aCheck for leaks (see 62A, Air conditioning, Refrig-
erant circuit: Check, page 62A-7) .
aCheck that the air conditioning system is operating
correctly (see 62A, Air conditioning, Air condi-
tioning: Check, page 62A-4) .
