REFRIGERANT SYSTEM SERVICE EQUIPMENT
WARNING: Eye protection must be worn when servicing an A/C refrigerant system. Turn all valves off (rotate clockwise) on the equipment
being used before connecting or disconnecting service equipment from the refrigerant system. Failure to observe these warnings may result in
personal injury or death.
WARNING: Refer to the applicable warnings and cautions for this system before performing the following operation See: Heating and Air
Conditioning/Service Precautions/Warning and See: Heating and Air Conditioning/Service Precautions/Caution. Failure to follow the warnings
and cautions could result in possible personal injury or death.
When servicing the A/C system, an R-134a refrigerant recovery/recycling/charging station that meets SAE standard J2210 must be used (1). Contact an
automotive service equipment supplier for refrigerant recovery/recycling/charging equipment. Refer to the operating instructions supplied by the
equipment manufacturer for proper care and use of this equipment.
A manifold gauge set (1) may be needed with some recovery/recycling/charging equipment. The manifold gauge set should have manual shut-off valves
(2 and 6), or automatic back-flow valves located at the service port connector end of the manifold gauge set hoses (4 and 5). This will prevent refrigerant
from being released into the atmosphere.
MANIFOLD GAUGE SET CONNECTIONS
CAUTION: Do not use an R-12 manifold gauge set on an R-134a system. The refrigerants are not compatible and system damage will result.
