u AIR CONDITIONER Performance Test After finishing repairs, conduct a performance test of the air conditioning system as follows. 1. Connect the manifold gauge set. (Refer to page U-25.) 2. Start the engine and keep the engine speed at 1,500 rpm. 3. Operate the air conditioner at maximum cooling. 4. Open all windows and doors. 5. Place a dry-bulb thermometer in the center ventilator outlet. 6. Place a dry and wet thermometer close to the blower in- let. 7. Wait until the air conditioner outlet temperature stabi- lizes. If the high-pressure side becomes too high, pour cool water on the condenser. If it is too low, cover the front of the condenser. Stabilized condition Blower inlet temperature: 30-35°C (86-95°F) High-pressure side: 1.38-1.56 MPa (1 4.0-1 6.0 kgflcm*, 200-227 psi) 8. After the air conditioner stabilizes, read the dry and wet thermometer at the air inlet. 9. Calculate the relative humidity from the chart below by comparing the wet- and dry-bulb readings.

Read the dry thermometer at the air outlet, and calculate the difference between the inlet dry bulb and outlet dry bulb temperatures. 11. Verify that the intersection of the relative humidity and temperature difference is in the shaded zone. Checking Refrigerant Charge 1. Run the engine at a fast idle. 2. Operate the air conditioner at maximum cooling for a few minutes. 3. Determine the amount of refrigerant as shown below by observing the sight glass. 1 Bubbles present in sight glass 2 No bubbles present in sight glass Immediately after air conditioner turned OFF, refrigerant in sight glass stavs clear 141 When air conditioner turned OFF, re- frigerant foams, and then sight glass becomes clear -- Amount of refrigerant Insufficient refrigerant Action Check refrigerant pressure -- Too much or proper amount of refrig- erant Too much refrigerant Checking Refrigerant Pressure 1. Connect the manifold gauge set. (Refer to page U-25.) 2. Operate the engine at 1,500 rpm and set the air condi- tioner to maximum cooling. 3. Measure the low- and high-pressure sides. Turn air conditioner OFF, and watch bubbles (Refer to Items 3 and 4) Check refrigerant pressure Proper amount of refrigerant Stabilized condition Low-pressure side: 0.15-4.24 MPa {I .5--2.5 kgf/cm2, 22-35 psi) High-pressure side: 1.38-1.56 MPa (1 4.61 6.0 kgflcm*, 200-227 psi) Refrigerant amount normal Gartner Banana

u AIR CONDITIONER COOLING UNIT Removal 1 Installation 1. Discharge the refrigerant system. 2. Remove the glove compartment. (Refer to section S.) il 3. Remove in the order shown in the figure. Immediately plug all open fittings to keep moisture out of the system. 4. Install in the reverse order of removal. Position the unit so that its connections match those of the heater unit and blower unit. Apply clean compressor oil to the O-rings before connecting the fittings; do not ap- ply compressor oil to the fitting nuts.
