Galant ES L4-2350cc 2.4L SOHC MFI (1997)
1. Install the adaptor value with the handle turned all the way in (valve close) to the bulk container.
2. Connect the charging hose (blue) to the adaptor valve.
3. Connect the charging hose (blue) to the quick joint (for low-pressure).
4. Open the valve of the bulk container.
5. Turn the handle of the adaptor valve to bleed the air.
6. Install the quick joint (for low-pressure) to the low-pressure service valve.
NOTE: The low-pressure service valve should be connected to the suction hose.
7. Start the engine.
8. Operate the air conditioning and set at the lowest temperature (MAX. COOL).
9. Fix the engine speed at 1,500 r/min.
10. Tighten the handle of the adaptor valve (valve open) and replenish refrigerant checking the quantity through the sight glass.
CAUTION: If the bulk container is inverted, liquid refrigerant may be drawn into the compressor damaging it by hydraulic lock. Keep the bulk
container upright to ensure that refrigerant is charged in gas state.
11. After replenishing is completed, turn the handle of the adaptor valve all the way in (valve close) and remove the quick joint.
METHOD BY USING REFRIGERANT RECOVERY AND RECYCLING UNIT
Using the refrigerant recovery and recycling unit, refill the refrigerant.
NOTE: Refer to that Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling Unit Instruction Manual for operation of the unit.
DISCHARGING SYSTEM
Use the refrigerant recovery unit to discharge refrigerant gas from the system.
NOTE: Refer to that Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling Unit Instruction Manual for operation of the unit.
REFILLING OF OIL IN THE A/C SYSTEM
Too little oil will provide inadequate compressor lubrication and cause a compressor failure. Too much oil will increase discharge air temperature.
When a compressor is installed at the factory, it contains 150 cubic.cm (5.1 fl.oz.) of refrigerant oil. While the A/C system is in operation, the oil is
carried through the entire system by the refrigerant. Some of this oil will be trapped and retained in various parts of the system.
When the following system components are changed, it is necessary to add oil to the system to replace the oil being removed with the component.
