REFRIGERANT RECOVERY, EVACUATING AND CHARGING
OPERATION PROCEDURE FOR REFRIGERANT CHARGING
WARNING:
 Your eyes should not be exposed to refrigerant (liquid).
Any liquid HFC-134a (R-134a) escaping by accident shows a temperature as low as approximately
–6°C (32°F) below freezing point. Should liquid HFC-134a (R-134a) get into your eyes, it may cause a
serious injury. To protect your eyes against such accident, it is necessary to always wear goggles.
Should it occur that HFC-134a (R-134a) strikes your eyes, consult a doctor immediately.
– Do not use your hand to rub the affected eye(s). Instead, use quantities of fresh cold water to
splash it over the affected area to gradually raise temperature of such area above freezing point.
– Obtain proper treatment as soon as possible from a doctor or eye specialist.
 Should the HFC-134a (R-134a) liquid come into contact with your skin, the affected area should be
treated in the same manner as when skin is frostbitten or frozen.
 Refrigerant must not be handled near where welding or steam cleaning is performed.
 Refrigerant should be kept at a cold and dark place. It should never be stored where a high temper-
ature is anticipated, e.g. where exposed to direct sun light, close to fire or inside vehicle (including
trunk room).
 Avoid breathing fumes produced when HFC-134a (R-134a) is burned. Such fumes may be hazard-
ous to health.
Replenish compressor oil

RECOVERY
REFRIGERANT RECOVERY
When discharging refrigerant out of A/C system, always recover it
by using refrigerant recovery and recycling equipment. Discharg-
ing refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) into atmosphere would cause
adverse effect to environments.
REPLENISHING COMPRESSOR OIL
It is necessary to replenishing specified amount of compressor oil
to compressor (1) from compressor suction side hole (2) before
evacuating and charging refrigerant.
WHEN CHARGING REFRIGERANT ONLY
When charging refrigerant without replacing any component part,
replenish the same amount of measured oil when recover refrig-
erant (if not measure, replenish 30 cc oil).NOTE:
 After recovery refrigerant from system, the amount of
removed compressor oil must be measured for replen-
ishing compressor oil.
 When handling recovery and recycling equipment, be
sure to follow the instruction manual for the equip-
ment.

1B-22 AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL)
WHEN REPLACING COMPRESSOR
Compressor oil is sealed in each new compressor by the amount
required for A/C system. Therefore, when using a new compres-
sor for replacement, drain oil from it by the amount calculated as
follows.
“C” = “A” – “B”
“C” : Amount of oil to be drained
“A” : Amount of oil sealed in a new compressor
“B” : Amount of oil remaining in removed compressor
Oil amount in compressor
: 120 cm

WHEN REPLACING OTHER PART
Replenish the following amount of oil to compressor.

CAUTION:
Be sure to use HFC-134a (R-134a) compressor oil.
NOTE:

with the following amount of oil.

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 approxi-
mately 15 minutes.

AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL) 1B-27
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
SERVICE PRECAUTION
When servicing air conditioning system, note the following instructions.
REFRIGERANT LINE
Never use heat for bending pipes. When bending a pipe, try to make its bending radius as slight as possible.
Keep internal parts of air conditioning free from moisture and dirt. When disconnecting any line from system,
install a blind plug or cap to the fitting immediately.
When connecting hoses and pipes, apply a few drops of compressor oil (refrigerant oil) to seats of coupling
nuts and O-ring.
When tightening or loosening a fitting, use two wrenches, one for turning and the other for support.
Tighten flared nuts by the following specified torque.
Tightening torque
8 mm pipe : 13 N·m (1.3 kg-m, 9.5 lb-ft)
12 mm pipe : 23 N·m (2.3 kg-m, 16.6 lb-ft)
14.5 mm pipe : 33 N·m (3.3 kg-m, 23.8 lb-ft) 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 refriger-
ant 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.
1. Suction hose:
Apply compressor oil (refrigerant oil) to O-ring.4. Expansion valve:
Apply compressor oil (refrigerant oil) to O-ring.
2. Discharge hose:
Apply compressor oil (refrigerant oil) to O-ring.5. A/C refrigerant pressure switch:
Apply compressor oil (refrigerant oil) to O-ring.
3. Condenser outlet pipe:
Apply compressor oil (refrigerant oil) to O-ring.

1B-28 AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL)
Route drain hose so that drained water does not make any contact to vehicle components.
If pipes or hoses are replaced, replenish specified amount of compressor oil to compressor suction side by
referring to “REPLENISHING COMPRESSOR OIL” in this section.
HANDLING REFRIGERANT HFC-134a (R-134a)
Always wear goggles to protect your eyes.
Avoid you direct contact to liquid refrigerant.
Do not heat refrigerant container higher than 40°C (104°F).
Do not discharge refrigerant into atmosphere.
Do not allow liquid refrigerant to touch bright metals. Refrigerant combined with moisture is corrosive and
will tarnish surfaces of bright metals including chrome.
REFRIGERANT RECOVERY
When discharging refrigerant out of A/C system, always recover it by using refrigerant recovery and recycling
equipment. Discharging refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) into atmosphere would cause adverse effect to environ-
ments.
REFRIGERANT CHARGE
After perform replenishing compressor oil and evacuating, charge a proper amount of refrigerant to A/C system
referring to “CHARGING” in this section.
CONDENSER ASSEMBLY
INSPECTION
Check the following.
Clog of condenser fins.
If, any clogs are found, condenser fins should be washed
with water, and should be dried with compressed air.
Condenser fins for leakage and breakage.
If any defects are found, repair or replace condenser.
Condenser fittings for leakage.
If any defects are found, repair or replace condenser. CAUTION:
Do not perform an additional refrigerant charging to A/C system. This cause it to overcharge.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage condenser fins. If condenser fin
is bent, straighten it by using flat head screwdriver or
pair of pliers.

AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL) 1B-29
REMOVAL
1) Disconnect negative (–) cable at battery.
2) Recover refrigerant from A/C system by referring to

suction side by referring to “REPLENISHING COMPRES-
SOR OIL” in this section.
Evacuate and charge refrigerant by referring to “EVACUAT-
ING” and “CHARGING” in this section. NOTE:
