Refrigerant: Service and Repair

AIR CONDITIONING: REFRIGERANT: REPLACEMENT

REPLACEMENT

1. RECOVER REFRIGERANT FROM REFRIGERATION SYSTEM

(a) Turn the A/C switch on.
(b) Operate the A/C with the setting temperature at 25°C (77°F) and the blower level at LO for 10 minutes to circulate the refrigerant. This causes

most of the compressor oil from the various components of the A/C system to collect in the A/C compressor.

(c) Turn the power switch off.
(d) Recover the refrigerant from the A/C system using a refrigerant recovery unit.

2. CHARGE WITH REFRIGERANT

(a) Perform vacuum purging using a vacuum pump.
(b) Charge with refrigerant HFC-134a (R134a).

Standard:
480 to 580 g (16.9 to 20.5 oz.)
SST: 07110-58060
07117-58060
07117-58070
07117-58080
07117-58090
07117-78050
07117-88060
07117-88070
07117-88080

NOTICE:
-

Do not turn the A/C on before charging with refrigerant. Doing so will cause the compressor to work without refrigerant, resulting in
overheating of the cooler compressor.

-

Approximately 100 g (3.53 oz.) of refrigerant may need to be charged after bubbles disappear.
The refrigerant amount should be checked by quantity, not with the sight glass.

-

Avoid using the gauge manifold set that had been used for vehicles with conventional compressor oil (ND-OIL11 or equivalent) as much
as possible. This will cause compressor oil remaining in the manifold to enter the vehicle, resulting in insulation performance deterioration.
A gauge manifold set that had been used 3 times or less can be reused if an appropriate one is not available.

HINT:  Ensure that sufficient refrigerant is available to recharge the system when using a refrigerant recovery unit. Refrigerant recovery units
are not always able to recover 100% of the refrigerant from an A/C system.

3. WARM UP COMPRESSOR

(a) Keep the A/C switch on for at least 2 minutes to warm up the compressor.

NOTICE:  Be sure to warm up the compressor when turning the A/C on after removing and installing the cooler refrigerant lines (including
the compressor), to prevent damage to the compressor.

4. INSPECT FOR REFRIGERANT LEAK
