Refrigerant: Service Precautions

Handling Refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a)

^

Always wear goggles to protect your eyes.

^

Avoid direct contact to liquid refrigerant.

^

Do not heat refrigerant container higher than 40 °C (104 °F).

^

Do not discharge refrigerant into atmosphere.

^

Do not expose bright metals to liquid refrigerant. Refrigerant combined with moisture is corrosive and tarnishes surfaces of bright metals including
chrome.

^

Never use heat for bending pipes. When bending a pipe, try to make its bending angle as smooth as possible.

^

Keep internal parts of air conditioning free from moisture and dirt. When disconnecting any line from system, install a blind plug or cap to the
fitting immediately.

When handling recovery and recycling equipment, be sure to follow the instruction manual for the equipment.

^

Check local governmental regulations regarding working with refrigerator systems and its tooling.

^

When connecting hoses and pipes, apply a few drops of compressor oil (refrigerant oil) to O-ring.

^

Replace O-ring with new one once hoses, pipes and parts disconnected.

^

When tightening or loosening a fitting, use two wrenches, one for turning and the other for support.

^

Route drain hose so that drained water does not make any contact to vehicle components.

^

If pipes or hoses are replaced, replenish specified amount of compressor oil to compressor suction side referring to  Replenishing Compressor Oil 
in Operation Procedure for Refrigerant Charge:Manual Type.

Refrigerant Recovery

HFC-134a (R-134a) into atmosphere would cause adverse effect to environments referring to "Recovery" in Operation Procedure for Refrigerant
Charge:Manual Type.

Refrigerant Charge

After performing compressor oil replenishment and evacuation, charge a proper amount of refrigerant to A/C system referring to "Charge" in Operation
