INSTALLATION
Installation is basically the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
-
Replace O-rings for A/C piping with new ones, and then apply compressor oil to it when installing it.
-
Connection point for female-side piping is thin. So, when inserting male-side piping, take care not to deform female-side piping. Slowly insert in
axial direction.
-
Insert one-touch joint connection point securely until it clicks.
-
After piping has been connected, pull male-side piping by hand to make sure piping does not come off.
-
When recharging refrigerant, check for leaks.
