Refrigerant System Recovery

NOTICE:  An Air Conditioning (A/C) refrigerant analyzer must be used before the recovery of any vehicle's A/C refrigerant. Failure to do so
puts the shop's bulk refrigerant at risk of contamination. If the vehicle's A/C refrigerant is contaminated, refer the customer to the service
facility that carried out the last A/C service. If the customer wishes to pay the additional cost, use the A/C recovery equipment that is
designated for recovering contaminated A/C refrigerant. All contaminated A/C refrigerant must be disposed of as hazardous waste. For all
equipment, follow the equipment manufacturer procedures and instructions.

NOTE:  Ford Motor Company recommends the use of R-134a refrigerant management equipment that meets the requirements of the SAE J2788
standard.
