1B-24 AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL)
c) Purge any air existing in center charging hose
When using refrigerant container tap valve, use following
procedure to purge air.
i) Once fully tighten refrigerant container tap valve and then
loosen (open) plate nut slightly.
ii) Open low pressure valve of manifold gauge set a little.
iii) As soon as refrigerant comes out with a “hiss” through a
clearance between refrigerant container and tap valve,
tighten plate nut as well as manifold gauge set low pres-
sure valve.
iv) Turn handle of tap valve clockwise so that its needle is
screwed into the new container to make a hole for refriger-
ant flow.
8) After the system has been charged with specified amount of
refrigerant or when low pressure gauge (1) and high pres-
sure gauge (2) must indicated the following specified
amount, close low pressure side valve (3) of manifold gauge
set (4). If equipped with sight glass in this time, look into the
sight glass (6) of condenser outlet pipe (5) and check that
there are no bubbles (7) in it, which means that the system is
fully charged.
Low pressure gauge when charged with specified
amount :
About 200 - 300 kPa (2 - 3 kg/cm
2, 29 - 43 psi)
(At A/C inlet temperature 30 - 35 °C (86 - 95 °F))
High pressure gauge when charged with specified
amount :
About 1370 - 1670 kPa (14 - 17 kg/cm
2, 200 - 244 psi)
(At A/C inlet temperature 30 - 35 °C (86 - 95 °F))

On-Vehicle Service
Precaution
When servicing air conditioning system, the following rules must be observed.
Piping
When connecting hoses and pipes, apply a few drops of compressor oil (refrigerant oil) to seats of coupling
nuts and O-ring. WARNING:
Should refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) strike your eye(s), consult a doctor immediately.
DO NOT USE YOUR HAND TO RUB AFFECTED EYE(S).
Instead, use quantities of fresh cold water to splash it over affected area to thus gradually raise its
temperature above the freezing point.
Obtain proper treatment as soon as possible from a doctor or eye specialist.
Should liquid refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) get on your skin, such affected part should be treated
in the same manner as when skin is frostbitten or frozen.
CAUTION:
None of refrigerant, compressor oil and component parts is interchangeable between two types of
A/C: one using CFC-12 (R-12) and the other using HFC-134a (R-134a).
(For identification between these two types, refer to “REFRIGERANT TYPE” in this section.
When replenishing or changing refrigerant and compressor oil and when replacing parts, make sure
that the material or the part to be used is appropriate to the A/C installed in the vehicle being serviced.
Use of incorrect one will result in leakage of refrigerant, damage in parts or other faulty condition.
NOTE:
Single A/C model is the same as SQ625 (H25 engine) model. Refer to the same section of the Service
Manual mentioned in FOREWORD of this manual.

Hydraulic Pressure in P/S Circuit
Hydraulic pressure check
1) After cleaning joint of high pressure hose and P/S pump
thoroughly, disconnect hose from pump and install special
tool (oil pressure gauge, attachment and hose).
Special tool
(A) : 09915-77410
(B) : 09915-77420
2) Check each connection for fluid leakage and bleed air.

3) With engine idling, turn steering wheel and warm up engine
till temperature of fluid in P/S fluid reservoir rises to 50 –
60°C (122 – 140°F).
4) Check back pressure by measuring hydraulic pressure with
engine idling and hands off steering wheel.
When back pressure is higher than specified values, check
control valve and piping for clogging.

ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (H27 ENGINE) 6-1-7
WARM-UP CYCLE
A warm-up cycle means sufficient vehicle operation such that the
coolant temperature has risen by at least 22°C (40°F) from
engine starting and reaches a minimum temperature of 70 °C
(160 °F).
DRIVING CYCLE
A “Driving Cycle” consists of engine startup, driving mode where
a malfunction would be detected if present and engine shutoff.
2 DRIVING CYCLE DETECTION LOGIC
The malfunction detected in the first driving cycle is stored in
ECM (PCM) memory (in the form of pending DTC) but the mal-
function indicator lamp does not light at this time. It lights up at the
second detection of same malfunction also in the next driving
cycle.
PENDING DTC
Pending DTC means a DTC detected and stored temporarily at 1
driving cycle of the DTC which is detected in the 2 driving cycle
detection logic.
FREEZE FRAME DATA
ECM (PCM) stores the engine and driving conditions (in the form
of data as shown in the figure) at the moment of the detection of a
malfunction in its memory. This data is called “Freeze frame data”.
Therefore, it is possible to know engine and driving conditions
(e.g., whether the engine was warm or not, where the vehicle was
running or stopped, where air/fuel mixture was lean or rich) when
a malfunction was detected by checking the freeze frame data.
Also, ECM (PCM) has a function to store each freeze frame data
for three different malfunctions in the order as the malfunction is
detected. Utilizing this function, it is possible to know the order of
malfunctions that have been detected. Its use is helpful when
rechecking or diagnosing a trouble.
1. 1st, 2nd or 3rd in parentheses here represents which position in the
order the malfunction is detected.
