CAUTION:
wBe sure to connect both the high and low pressure
quick±connectors onto the A/C system when evacuating.
If only one side is connected, the system would be open
to atmosphere through the other connector, making it
impossible to maintain vacuum.
wBe sure to turn off the manifold gauge valve immediately
after evacuating the system. Then you may switch off the
vacuum pump.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN CHARGING
REFRIGERANT
1. DO NOT OPERATE COMPRESSOR WITHOUT ENOUGH
REFRIGERANT IN REFRIGERANT SYSTEM
If there is not enough refrigerant in the refrigerant system, oil
lubrication will be insufficient and compressor burnout may
occur, so take care to avoid this.
2. DO NOT OPEN HIGH PRESSURE MANIFOLD VALVE
WHILST COMPRESSOR IS OPERATING
If the high pressure valve is opened, refrigerant flows in the
reverse direction and could cause the charging cylinder to
rupture, so open and close the low pressure valve only.
3. BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERCHARGE SYSTEM WITH
REFRIGERANT
If refrigerant is overcharged, it causes problems such as in-
sufficient cooling, poor fuel economy, engine overheating
etc.
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM
(SRS)
Failure to carry out service operations in the correct se-
quence could cause the supplemental restraint system to
deploy, possibly leading to a serious accident.
During removal or installation of the parts and the yellow wire
harness and connector for the airbag is necessary, refer to
the precautionary notices in the RS section before carrying
out operation. AC±6
