C: PURGE THE CENTER HOSE
CAUTION:
Be certain that goggles and gloves are worn.
1) Verify that all three hose connections are tight
at the manifold gauge set.
G4M0603
2) Open the valve on the HFC-134a source.
3) Loosen the center hose connection at the mani-
fold and allow the HFC-134a to escape for no more
than two or three seconds, then quickly retighten
the hose fitting at the manifold.
D: INITIAL CHARGING THROUGH
THE HIGH SIDE
1) Connect a tachometer to the engine.
2) With the engine off, start charging by slowly
opening the high-pressure manifold valve.
NOTE:
The initial charge rate can be increased by
immersing the can in lukewarm [Below 38ÉC
(100ÉF)] water for a short time.
G4M0604
E: CHECK THE GAUGE READINGS
When both the high- and low-pressure gauge read-
ings are about equal, or the HFC-134a source is
empty, or the system has been filled to
specifications, close the high- pressure manifold
valve.
G4M0605
F: ADD ADDITIONAL CANS
If the HFC-134a source is exhausted, first close
the high- pressure manifold valve, second, close
the can tap valve, then slowly purge the refrigerant
from the service hose by loosening the fitting at the
can tap.
G: COMPLETE CHARGING
THROUGH THE LOW SIDE
1) Verify that the high-pressure manifold valve is
closed (should have already been closed).
2) Verify that the low-pressure manifold valve is
closed (should have already been closed).
G4M0606
3) With the A/C switch off and the windows rolled
down, start the engine and run at idle rpm.
4) Set the A/C controls on maximum cool and set
the blower speed on the highest setting.
