7. Align the protector on the body, and attach it securely as
shown.
8. Prepare the nozzle of the sealant gun so that it has a flange
that can run along the edge of the glass and a V from which
the sealant can flow. Once the primer is dry, apply the seal-
ant around the entire circumference of the glass to fill the
gap between the dam and the edge of the glass with a ridge
of sealant
12mm (0.47 in) high.
Keep the bead of sealant smooth and even, reshaping it
where necessary with a spatula.
9. Lift the glass into place. Push it in lightly toward the vehicle
to compress the sealant.
Caution
l Open the windows to prevent the glass from being
pushed out by air pressure if a door is closed.

AIR CONDITIONER U
REFRIGERANT SYSTEM
Safety Precaution
1. R-12 liquid refrigerant is highly volatile. A drop of it on the
skin could result in localized frostbite. When handling the
refrigerant, be sure to wear gloves.
2. If the refrigerant splashes into the eyes, wash them with clean
water immediately. Always wear goggles or glasses to pro-
tect the eyes.
9MUOUX-125 3. The R-12 container is a highly pressurized vessel.
Never subject it to high heat, and be sure that the temper-
ature where it is stored is below 52OC
(125.6OF).
4. A halide leak detector is often used to check the system
for refrigerant leakage. R-l 2, upon coming into contact with
the flame, produces phosgene, a toxic gas. Always provide
adequate ventilation.

Refrigerant System Service Basics
Refrigerant container service valve
1. Turn the handle fully counterclockwise before connecting
the valve to the refrigerant container.
2. Turn the outlet valve counterclockwise until it reaches its
highest position.
3. Turn the outlet valve fully clockwise by hand. Connect the
center hose to the valve fitting.
4. Turn the handle clockwise to puncture the sealed can.
5. Turn the handle fully counterclockwise to fill the center hose.
Do not open the high- or low-pressure manual valves.
6. Loosen the hose nut connected to the center fitting of the
manifold gauge. Allow air to escape. Then retighten the nut.

Caution
l Connect all charging hoses via stop valves to avoid
venting the refrigerant remaining in the hoses into
the atomosphere. _A
l Do not disconnect the stop valve from the charg-
ing hose when there is refrigerant remaining in the
hose.
1. Turn the knob counterclockwise to close the stop valve.
2. Install the stop valve to the end of the charging hose of the
manifold gauge set.
Caution
l Verify that high-and low-pressure side valves of the
manifold gauge set are fully closed before connect-
ing the charging hose and stop valve to the refriger-
ant system service valve.
23UOUX-063 Evacuation/Airtiahtness test
1. Connect the manifold gauge set and stop valves to the
refrigerant system service valves.
2. Connect the center hose of the manifold gauge set to the
vacuum pump inlet.
3. Prepare as follows according to the charging method.
Charging from service container.
Connect the charging hose and service container valve to the
manifold gauge set air purge valve.

Refrigerant recovery operation.
Remove the refrigerant from the refrigerant system by using
a freon (refrigerant) recovery and recycling system.
Caution
. Never vent the refrigerant into the atomosphere.
l When using a freon recovery and recycling system,
follow the operation instructions provided by the
equipment manufacturer.

Caution
l Connect the charging hose to the air purge valve
via its tap pin side.
l Do not disconnect the charging hose or stop valve
until the charging operation is completed.
l Do not open the stop valve when not used.
4. Start the vacuum pump and open the high-and low-pressure
side valves of the manifold gauge set.
5. Start the pump and let it operate for 15 minutes.
6. Check high- and low-pressure side gauge readings. When
both of them are at 750 mmHg or more, close the manifold
gauge set valves.
7. Stop the vacuum pump and wait for about 5 minutes.
8. Verity that the low-pressure side gauge reading does not
change.
9. If the reading changes, retighten the piping connections and
repeat the evacuation operation.
10. If not changed, check for leaks (see below) and charge the
system.
