INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Be certain to adjust the refrigerant oil level when servicing the A/C refrigerant system See: Service and Repair/Refrigerant Oil Level
. Failure to properly adjust the refrigerant oil level will prevent the A/C system from operating as designed and can cause serious
A/C compressor damage.
NOTE: When replacing multiple A/C system components, see the Refrigerant Oil Capacities chart to determine how much oil should be added
to the refrigerant system See: Service and Repair/Refrigerant Oil Level .
NOTE: If only the A/C evaporator is being replaced, add 20 milliliters (0.7 fluid ounce) of refrigerant oil to the refrigerant system. Use only
refrigerant oil of the type recommended for the A/C compressor in the vehicle.
NOTE: Replacement of the refrigerant line O-ring seals and gaskets is required anytime a refrigerant line is disconnected. Failure to replace
the rubber O-ring seals and metal gaskets could result in a refrigerant system leak.
NOTE: LHD model shown. RHD model similar.
1. If removed, install the seal (4) onto the evaporator tube tapping block (5).
NOTE: Make sure that the foam insulator is properly positioned in the HVAC housing.
2. Carefully install the A/C evaporator (1) and foam insulator (2) into the lower half of the HVAC housing (3).
3. Assemble the HVAC housing See: Housing Assembly HVAC/Service and Repair/Overhaul/Assembly.
4. Install the HVAC housing See: Housing Assembly HVAC/Service and Repair/Removal and Replacement/HVAC Housing - Installation.
5. If the A/C evaporator is being replaced, add 20 milliliters (0.7 fluid ounce) of refrigerant oil to the refrigerant system. When replacing multiple
A/C system components, see the Refrigerant Oil Capacities chart to determine how much oil should be added to the refrigerant system See:
Service and Repair/Refrigerant Oil Level. Use only refrigerant oil of the type recommended for the A/C compressor in the vehicle.
