ADJUSTMENT Recharging
WARNING: Refrigerant must always be
recycled before re-use, to ensure that the
purity of the refrigerant is high enough for
safe use within the air conditioning system.
Recycling should always be carried out with
equipment which is design certified by
Underwriter Laboratory Inc. for compliance with
SAE-J1991. Other equipment may not re-cycle the
refrigerant to the required level of purity.
WARNING: A R134a Refrigerant Recovery
Recycling Recharging station must not be
used with any other type of refrigerant.
WARNING: R134a refrigerant from
domestic and commercial sources must
not be used in motor vehicle air
conditioning systems.
CAUTION: When a major repair has been
carried out, a leak test should be carried
out using inert gas.
1.Close valves on refrigerant station.
2.Close valve on oil charger.
3.Disconnect yellow hose from refrigerant station.
4.Remove lid from oil charger.
5.Pour correct quantity of refrigerant oil into oil
charger.
6.Fit lid to oil charger.
7.Connect yellow hose to refrigerant station.
8.Open valve on oil charger.
9.Move pointer on refrigerant gauge to mark
position of refrigerant drop.
10.Slowly open correct valve on refrigerant station
and allow vacuum to pull refrigerant into system.
11.Close valve on refrigerant station when correct
amount of refrigerant has been drawn into air
conditioning system.
12.If the full charge is not accepted by the system,
start the engine and run it at 1,500 rev/min for a
minimum of 2 minutes. Switch on the air
conditioning system, open the vehicle windows,
set the temperature control to cold and the
blower switch to maximum.
13.Consult Refrigerant station instruction manual for
correct procedure to complete the charge.
14.Turn Main switch to’OFF’.
15.Close valves on connectors.
16.Disconnect high and low pressure hoses from
connectors.
17.Fit dust caps to connectors.
18.Carry out performance test on air conditioning
system.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Alarm Sounders
1.Battery Backed Up Sounder (BBUS)
2.Alarm sounder
Two types of alarm sounder are available, dependant on the vehicle market configuration.
A Battery Backed-Up Sounder (BBUS) is used in some markets and located in the LH front wing, behind the
headlamp. This is a tamper proof sounder with its own power supply which allows it to continue operating even if
disconnected from the vehicle power supply. The BBUS is connected to a permanent battery supply via fuse 7 in
the under seat fuse box. Two further connections are made to the anti-theft alarm ECU and a fourth connection is
to an earth header. If the BBUS is disconnected without first being disarmed by the anti-theft alarm ECU, it will
operate for 4.5 minutes.
To disarm the BBUS, when the battery is to be disconnected for instance, the ignition must be turned on to
position II and back to the off position , after which a 17 second delay is initiated to allow the battery or BBUS
connector to be disconnected. If the BBUS sounds, it can be disarmed by unlocking the vehicle with the remote
handset.
Where a BBUS is not specified, a standard vehicle horn is used for the alarm sounder and is located in the LH
front wing, behind the headlamp. The sounder is operated by an alarm relay which is controlled by the anti-theft
alarm ECU. The relay receives a permanent battery supply via fusible link 6 in the under seat fuse box. The relay
coil is connected to the anti-theft alarm ECU which provides an earth for the coil when horn operation is required.
This operates the relay contacts and supplies battery voltage to the sounder, causing it to operate.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION IMMOBILISATION SYSTEM - FROM 02MY
Engine immobilisation is available on all 2002MY engine derivatives, although it is not available in selected
markets. On Td5 models, the immobilisation system is controlled directly by the anti-theft alarm ECU. On 300Tdi
models, the immobilisation system is controlled by an engine immobilisation ECU in conjunction with the anti-theft
alarm ECU.
When immobilisation occurs on Td5 models, engine crank is disabled by the anti-theft alarm ECU breaking the
earth path for the starter relay coil and the ECM disables the fuel pump relay and the glow plug relay.
When immobilisation occurs on 300Tdi models, engine crank is disabled by the anti-theft alarm ECU breaking the
earth path for the starter relay coil and the engine immobilisation ECU disables the fuel cut-off solenoid, the starter
motor solenoid and the glow plug relay.
Two types of immobilisation are available; passive and active.
Engine Immobilised Warning Lamp
The engine immobilised warning lamp is located in the instrument pack. The lamp is used by the anti-theft alarm
ECU to show that the engine is immobilised during an attempted engine start.
The warning lamp receives a battery supply from the ignition switch position I (aux) via the passenger
compartment fusebox. The anti-theft alarm ECU controls the warning lamp. When the warning lamp is not
required, the ECU supplies a battery supply to the warning lamp. When warning lamp operation is required, the
ECU provides an earth for the bulb.
If the ignition switch is moved to the crank position, but operation of the starter motor is prohibited and the engine
immobilised warning lamp flashes, then the anti-theft alarm ECU has not received the correct code from the
remote handset and the vehicle will remain immobilised. Ensure that the remote handset is in the proximity of the
transponder coil. If the remote handset is not available or inoperative, the immobilisation system can be disarmed
using the EKA procedure outlined later in this section.
If the ignition switch is turned to the crank position III and the remote handset is not in the proximity of the
transponder coil, engine immobilisation will remain active and the warning lamp will flash to inform the driver.
