4. Evacuate and charge the refrigerant system. For additional information, refer to Air Conditioning (A/C) System Recovery, Evacuation and

Charging  See: Heating and Air Conditioning/Service and Repair/Air Conditioning (A/C) System Recovery, Evacuation and Charging.

5. Check all refrigerant system hoses, lines and the position of the newly installed filters to be sure they do not interfere with other engine

compartment components. If necessary, use tie straps to make adjustments.

6. Provide adequate airflow to the front of the vehicle (with a fan, if necessary). Select A/C operation and set the blower motor speed to maximum.

Start the engine and let it idle briefly. Make sure the A/C system is operating correctly.

7. Using a scan tool, command the idle to gradually bring the engine up to 1,200 rpm by running it at lower rpms for short periods (first at 800 rpm,

then at 1,000 rpm). Set the engine at 1,200 rpm and run it for one hour with the A/C system operating.

8. Stop the engine.

9. Recover the refrigerant. For additional information, refer to Air Conditioning (A/C) System Recovery, Evacuation and Charging  See: Heating and

11. Discard the pancake filter. It can be used one time only.

12. Reconnect the condenser outlet fitting.

13. Evacuate, charge and leak-test the refrigerant system. For additional information, refer to Air Conditioning (A/C) System Recovery, Evacuation
