PRECAUTION
1. DO NOT HANDLE REFRIGERANT IN AN ENCLOSED
AREA OR NEAR AN OPEN FLAME
2. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION
3. BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET LIQUID REFRIGERANT IN
YOUR EYES OR ON YOUR SKIN
If liquid refrigerant gets in your eyes or on your skin.
(a) Wash the area with lots of cool water.
CAUTION:
Do not rub your eyes or skin.
(b) Apply clean petroleum jelly to the skin.
(c) Go immediately to a physician or hospital for professional
treatment.
4. NEVER HEAT CONTAINER OR EXPOSE IT TO NAKED
FLAME
5. BE CAREFUL NOT TO DROP CONTAINER AND NOT
TO APPLY PHYSICAL SHOCKS TO IT
6. DO NOT OPERATE COMPRESSOR WITHOUT
ENOUGH REFRIGERANT IN REFRIGERANT SYSTEM
If there is not enough refrigerant in the refrigerant system oil lu-
brication will be insufficient and compressor burnout may occur,
so take care to avoid this, necessary care should be taken.
7. DO NOT OPEN HIGH PRESSURE MANIFOLD VALVE
WHILE COMPRESSOR IS OPERATING
If the high pressure valves opened, refrigerant flows in the re-
verse direction and could cause the charging cylinder to rup-
ture, so open and close the only low pressure valve.
8. BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERCHARGE SYSTEM WITH
REFRIGERANT
If refrigerant is overcharged, it causes problems such as insuffi-
cient cooling, poor fuel economy, engine overheating etc.

INSPECTION
1. INSPECT FUEL LID OPENER SWITCH CONTINUITY
(a) Check that continuity exists between terminals with the
switch ON (Lever pulled).
(b) Check that no continuity exists between terminals with the
switch OFF (Lever free).
If continuity is not as specified, replace the switch assembly.
2. INSPECT FUEL LID OPENER SWITCH CIRCUIT
Disconnect the connector from the switch and inspect the con-
nector on the wire harness side, as shown.
Tester connectionConditionSpecified condition
1 ± GroundConstantContinuity
2 ± GroundConstantBattery positive voltage
If circuit is not as specified, inspect the circuits connected to oth-
er parts.
3. INSPECT FUEL LID OPENER SOLENOID OPERATION
(a) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
2 and negative (±) lead to terminal 3.
(b) Check that the solenoid operates in the fuel lid opening.
If operation is not as specified, replace the solenoid.
