3. INSPECT IDLE−UP SPEED
(a) Warm up engine.
(b) Inspect idle−up speed when the these conditions are es-
tablished.
Warm up engine
Blower speed control switch at ”HI” position
A/C switch ON
Temperature control dial at ”COOL” position
Magnetic clutch conditionIdle−up speed
3RZ−FE Engine−
Magnetic clutch not engaged700 ± 50 rpm
Magnetic clutch engaged900 ± 50 rpm
5VZ−FE Engine−
Magnetic clutch not engaged700 ± 50 rpm
Magnetic clutch engaged850 ± 50 rpm
If idle speed is not as specified, check idle control system.
4. INSPECT FOR LEAKAGE OF REFRIGERANT
(a) Perform in these conditions:
Stop engine.
Secure good ventilation (If the gas leak detector
may not react to volatile gases which are not refrig-
erant, such as evaporated gasoline and exhaust
gas.)
Repeat the test 2 or 3 times.
Make sure that there is some refrigerant remaining
in the refrigeration system.
When compressor is OFF: approx. 392 − 588 kPa
(4 − 6 kgf/ cm
2, 57 − 85 psi)

(b) Bring the gas leak detector close to the drain hose before
performing the test.
HINT:
After the blower motor has stopped, leave the cooling unit
for more than 15 minutes.
Expose the gas leak detector sensor under the drain
hose.
When bring the gas leak detector close to the drain hose,
make sure that the gas leak detector does not react to the
volatile gases.
If such reaction is unavoidable, the vehicle must be lifted up.
(c) If gas leak is not detected on the drain hose, remove the
blower resistor from the cooling unit. Then insert the gas
leak detector sensor into the unit and perform the test.
(d) Disconnect the connector and leave the pressure switch
for approx. 20 minutes. Then bring the gas leak detector
close to the pressure switch and perform the test.
(e) Bring the gas leak detector close to the refrigerant lines
and perform the test.

CHARGING
1. INSTALL CHARGING CYLINDER
HINT:
When handling the charging cylinder, always follow the direc-
tions given in the instruction manual.
(a) Charge the proper amount of refrigerant into the charging
cylinder.
(b) Connect the center hose to the charging cylinder.
CAUTION:
Do not open both high and low hand valves of manifold
gauge set.
(c) Open the valve of charging cylinder.
(d) Press the valve core on the side of manifold gauge and
expel the air inside of the center hose.
2. INSPECT REFRIGERATION SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
(a) Open the high pressure hand valve and charge refriger-
ant.
(b) When the low pressure gauge indicates 98 kPa
(1 kgf/cm
2, 14 psi) close the high pressure hand valve.
(c) Using a gas leak detector, check the system for leakage.
If leak is found, repair the faulty component or connection.
CAUTION:
Use the refrigerant recovery/ recycling machine to recover
the refrigerant whenever replacing parts.

3. CHARGE REFRIGERANT INTO REFRIGERANT SYS-
TEM
If there is no leak after refrigerant leak check, charge the proper
amount of refrigerant into refrigeration system.
CAUTION:
Never run the engine when charging the system
through the high pressure side.
Do not open the low pressure hand valve when the
system is being charged with liquid refrigerant.
(a) Open the high pressure hand valve fully.
(b) Charge specified amount of refrigerant, then close the
high pressure hand valve.
HINT:
A fully charged system is indicated by the sight glass being free
of any bubbles.
4. SET OFF MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
(a) Close both hand valves of manifold gauge set.
(b) Disconnect the quick disconnect adapters from the ser-
vice valves.

ANT LINES

DRIVE BELT
ON−VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. INSPECT DRIVE BELT’S INSTALLATION CONDITION
Check that the drive belt fits properly in the ribbed grooves.
2. INSPECT DRIVE BELT TENSION
Using a belt tension gauge, check the drive belt tension.
Drive belt tension:
New belt 160 ± 25 lbf
Used belt 100 ± 20 lbf
HINT:
”New belt” refers to a belt which has been used less than
5 minutes on a running engine.
”Used belt” refers to a belt which has been used on a run-
ning engine for 5 minutes or more.
After installing the drive belt, check that it fits properly in
the ribbed grooves.
