Pipes and hoses in refrigerant circuit
The mixture of refrigerant oil and refrigerant R134a attacks certain metals (e.g. copper) and alloys and dissolves certain hose materials. Therefore, always use genuine replacement parts.
The hoses and pipes are held together with screwed joints or special push-fit joints.
  Note
When assembling screwed joints, be careful to comply with the prescribed torques, and when working on push-fit joints, be careful to use the disconnection tools provided.
