Detaching and attaching compressor from support
  Note
t  The compressor can be detached from the support and re-attached without opening up refrigerant pipes.
t  Following is the description of the removal and fitting of the compressor for a 2.0 litre petrol engine and a “Denso” type “7 SEU 16” compressor. There may be small differences in vehicles with a different engine or different compressor (depending on the engine concerned it may be necessary to remove or detach other auxiliary groups)
t  The refrigerant circuit must not be emptied; nor should the flexible tubes and the tubes for the refrigerant on the compressor be disconnected.
t  Do not unfasten refrigerant pipes and corresponding clips.
t  After detaching, use wire for example to attach compressor to longitudinal member. Never leave hanging from refrigerant pipes.
t  Before removing, mark direction of Poly-V belt with chalk or felt-tipped pen. If the belt is refitted in the wrong direction it will be destroyed.
t  Depending on the engine fitted and the country, different compressors may be fitted → Parts catalogue.
