1. INSPECT REFRIGERANT VOLUME
Observe the sight glass on the liquid tube.
Test conditions:
Running engine at 1,500 rpm
Blower speed control switch at ºHIº position
A/C switch ON
Temperature control dial at ºCOOLº position
Fully open the doors
ItemSymptomAmount of refrigerantRemedy
1Bubbles present in sight glassInsufficient*
(1) Check for gas leakage with gas leak de-
tector and repair if necessary
(2) Add refrigerant until bubbles disappear
2No bubbles present in sight glassNone, sufficient or too muchRefer item 3 and 4
3No temperature difference between com-
pressor inlet and outletEmpty or nearly empty
(1) Check for gas leakage with gas leak de-
tector and repair if necessary
(2) Add refrigerant until bubbles disappear
4Temperature between compressor inlet and
outlet is noticeably differentCorrect or too muchRefer to items 5 and 6
5Immediately after air conditioning is turned
off, refrigerant in sight glass stays clearToo much
(1) Discharge refrigerant
(2) Evacuate air and charge proper amount
or purified refrigerant
6When air conditioning is turned off, refriger-
ant foams and then stays clearCorrect±
*: Bubbles in the sight glass with ambient temperatures higher than usual can be considered normal if cooling
is sufficient.

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.
(c) Charge partially refrigeration system with refrigerant.
(1) Set vehicle in these conditions:
Running engine at 1,500 rpm
Blower speed control set at ºHIº
Temperature control set at ºMAX. COOLº
Air inlet control set at ºRECIRCº
Fully open doors (Sliding roof: closed)
(2) Open the low pressure hand valve.
CAUTION:
Do not open the high pressure hand valve.
(d) Charge refrigerant until bubbles disappear and check the
pressure on the gauge through the sight glass.

REMOVAL
1. DISCHARGE REFRIGERANT FROM REFRIGERATION
SYSTEM
HINT:
At the time of installation, please refer to the following item.
Evacuate air from refrigeration system.
Charge system with refrigerant and inspect for leakage of refrig-
erant.
Specified amount: 800 ± 50 g (28.22 ± 1.76 oz.)
2. DRAIN ENGINE COOLANT FROM RADIATOR
HINT:
It is not necessary to drain out all the coolant.
3. DISCONNECT WATER HOSE FROM HEATER RADIA-
TOR PIPES
(a) Using pliers, grip the claws of the hose clip and slide the
hose clip along the hose.
(b) Disconnect the water hose.
HINT:
At the time of installation, please refer to the following items.
Push the water hose onto the heater radiator pipe as far
as ridge on the pipe and install the hose clip.
Install the hose clip in a position, as shown in the illustra-
tion.
4. REMOVE BLOWER UNIT (See page AC±35)
5. REMOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND REINFORCE-
MENT (See page BO±75)
