GENERAL INFORMATION 0A-5
CAUTION:
 Even when the accident was light enough not to cause air bags to activate, be sure to inspect sys-
tem parts and other related parts according to instructions under “REPAIR AND INSPECTION
REQUIRED AFTER AN ACCIDENT” in SECTION 10B.
 When servicing parts other than air bag system, if shocks may be applied to air bag system compo-
nent parts, remove those parts beforehand.
 When handling the air bag (inflator) modules (driver and passenger), forward sensors or SDM, be
careful not to drop it or apply an impact to it. If an excessive impact was applied (e.g., dropped from
a height of 91.4 cm (3 feet) or more), never attempt disassembly or repair but replace it with a new
one.
 When grease, cleaning agent, oil, water, etc. has got onto air bag (inflator) modules (driver and pas-
senger), wipe off immediately with a dry cloth.
 Air bag wire harness can be identified easily as it is covered with a yellow protection tube. Be very
careful when handling it.
 When an open in air bag wire harness, damaged wire harness, connector or terminal is found,
replace wire harness, connectors and terminals as an assembly.
 Do not apply power to the air bag system unless all components are connected or a diagnostic
chart requests it, as this will set a diagnostic trouble code.
 Never use air bag system component parts from another vehicle.
 When using electric welding, be sure to temporarily disable air bag system referring to “DIS-
ABLING AIR BAG SYSTEM” in SECTION 10B.
 Never expose air bag system component parts directly to hot air (drying or baking the vehicle after
painting) or flames.
 WARNING/CAUTION labels are attached on each part of air bag system components. Be sure to fol-
low the instructions.
 After vehicle is completely repaired, perform “AIR BAG DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK” in SEC-
TION 10B.

1B-10 AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL)
Performance Diagnosis
1) Confirm that vehicle and environmental conditions are as fol-
lows.
Vehicle is not exposed to direct sun.
Ambient temperature is within 15 - 35 °C (59 - 95 °F).
2) Make sure that high pressure valve (1) and low pressure
valve (2) of manifold gauge (3) are firmly closed.
3) Connect high pressure charging hose (4) to high pressure
service valve (5) on vehicle, and connect low pressure
charging hose (6) to low pressure service valve (7) on vehi-
cle.
4) Bleed the air in charging hoses (3), (4) by loosening their
respective nuts on manifold gauge, utilizing the refrigerant
pressure. When a hiss is heard, immediately tighten nut.
5) Warm up engine to normal operating temperature (engine
coolant temperature at 80 - 90 °C (176 - 194 °F)) and keep it
at specified idle speed.
6) Operate A/C at the following conditions.
Main (front) A/C switch at ON position.
Rear A/C main switch at ON position (if equipped).
Front blower motor switch at max position.
Rear blower motor switch at max position (if equipped).
Air outlet control button at face position.
Temperature control lever at max cool position.
Vehicle door at all open.
Air inlet door at recirculation position.
7) Keep all windows, doors and engine food open.
8) With about 20 mm (0.8 in.) of dry bulb thermometer (1)
inserted into center face air outlet (2), rear A/C air outlet (3)
(dual A/C model only) and near A/C evaporator air inlet, read
temperature indicated on each thermometer. CAUTION:
Do not interchange high and low pressure charging
hoses by mistake.

AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL) 1B-21
Evacuating
Evacuating procedure
1) Connect high charging hose (1) and low charging hose (2) of
manifold gauge set (3) respectively as follows:
High Charging Hose (1) → High pressure charging valve (4)
on Discharge Hose
Low Charging Hose (2) → Low pressure charging valve (5)
on Suction Pipe
2) Attach center charging hose (6) of manifold gauge set (3) to
vacuum pump (7).
3) Operate vacuum pump (7), and then open discharge-side
valve (9) (Hi) of manifold gauge set (3).
If there is no blockage in the system, there will be an indica-
tion on high pressure gauge (10).
When this occurs, open the other-side valve (8) (Lo) of the
set.
4) Approx. 10 minutes later, low pressure gauge (11) should
show –10 kPa (–1.0 kg/cm
2, –760 mmHg, –14.2 psi) provid-
ing no leakage exists.
5) Evacuation should be carried out for a total of at least 20
minutes.
6) Continue evacuation until low pressure gauge indicates –10
kPa (–1.0 kg/cm
2, –760 mmHg, –14.2 psi), and then close
both valves (8), (9).
7) Stop vacuum pump (7). Disconnect center charging hose (6)
from pump inlet. Now, the system is ready for charging refrig-
erant. CAUTION:
Do not evacuate before recovering refrigerant in system.
NOTE:
Whenever opened (exposed to atmospheric air), air con-
ditioning system must be evacuated by using a vacuum
pump. The A/C system should be attached with a mani-
fold gauge set, and should be evacuated for approx. 20
minutes.
NOTE:
If the system does not show –10 kPa (–1.0 kg/cm
2, –
760 mmHg, –14.2 psi), close both valves, stop vacuum
pump and watch movement of low pressure gauge.
Increase in the gauge reading suggests existence of
leakage. In this case, repair the system before continu-
ing its evacuation.
If the gauge shows a stable reading (suggesting no
leakage), continue evacuation.

AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL) 1B-23
The initial charging of the A/C system is performed from the high-
pressure side with the engine stopped.
And next, this method must be followed by charging from the low-
pressure side with the engine running.
1) Check to make sure that hoses are routed properly after
evacuating the system.
2) Connect Low-side hose (1) and High side hose (2) of the
manifold gauge set (3) in position. Thus open refrigerant
container valve (4) to purge the charging line.
3) Open the high-pressure side valve (6) and charge refrigerant
to system.
4) After a while, open the low-pressure side valve (5) and close
the high-pressure side valve (6).
5) Start engine and keep engine speed at 1500 rpm. Then,
operate air conditioning.
6) Charge A/C system with refrigerant in vapor state. At this
time, refrigerant container should be held upright.
7) When refrigerant container (3) is emptied, the use following
procedure to replace it with a new refrigerant container (3).
a) Close low pressure valve.
b) Replace empty container (3) with a refrigerant container
which has been charged with refrigerant. When using
refrigerant container tap valve (4), use following procedure
for replacement.
i) Retract needle (1) and remove refrigerant container tap
valve (4) by loosening its plate nut (2).
ii) Install previously-removed refrigerant container tap valve
(4) to a new refrigerant container (3). WARNING:
Make sure that high pressure-side valve is closed
securely.
NOTE:
Dual A/C model must be operated rear A/C system, too.

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))
