CAUTION: Be certain to adjust the refrigerant oil level when servicing the A/C refrigerant system See: Service and
Repair/Procedures/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, refer to the Refrigerant Oil Capacities chart to determine how much oil should be
added to the refrigerant systemSee: Service and Repair/Procedures/Refrigerant Oil Level.
NOTE: Replacement of the refrigerant line O-ring seals and gaskets is required anytime a refrigerant line is opened. Failure to replace the
rubber O-ring seals and metal gaskets could result in a refrigerant system leak.
1. Remove the tape or plugs from the opened refrigerant line fittings and the condenser and expansion valve ports.
2. Lubricate new rubber O-ring seals with clean refrigerant oil and install them onto the refrigerant line fittings. Use only the specified O-rings as
they are made of a special material for the R-134a system. Use only refrigerant oil of the type recommended for the A/C compressor in the vehicle.
