SCENIC Compressor
REMOVAL
Drain the R134a refrigerant circuit (refer to the
procedure described in the "Air conditioning" manual).
Disconnect the battery.
Remove:
– the cooling assembly (see section 19 ),
– the alternator (see section 16),
– the R134a refrigerant pipes retaining bolt,
– the four compressor mounting bolts.REFITTING
Refitting is the reverse of removal.
Tighten the R134a refrigerant pipes retaining bolt on
the compressor to 3 daN.m.
Fill the R134a refrigerant circuit using the filling
equipment.
IMPORTANT:
When replacing the existing compressor with a new
compressor, it is essential to drain some of the oil from
the new compressor, so that the amount of oil in the
new compressor corresponds to the amount of oil
drained from the oil compressor.
