CAUTION:

Do not breathe refrigerant or vapor.
Use only service equipment that is U.L.-listed and is certified to meet the requirements of SAE J2210 to remove HFC-134a (R-134a) from the air
conditioning system.
If accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work area before resuming service.
Additional health and safety information may be obtained from the refrigerant and lubricant manufacturers.
1. Connect a R-134a refrigerant recovery/recycling/charging station (A) to the high-pressure service port (B) and the low-pressure service port (C),
as shown, following the equipment manufacturer's instructions.
2. Add the same amount of new refrigerant oil to the system that was removed during recovery. Use only DENSO ND-OIL8 refrigerant oil.
