t  The opening of the refrigerant circuit can only be carried out in workshops, which have trained personnel and the necessary range of tools and workshop equipment.
t  To prevent damage to condenser and also refrigerant lines/hoses, ensure that the lines and hoses are not stretched, kinked or bent.
t  When installing refrigerant lines/hoses, ensure that lines and hoses are routed/installed so that they cannot be damaged or come into contact with rotating parts.
