REFRIGERANT RECOVERY, EVACUATING AND CHARGING
OPERATION PROCEDURE FOR REFRIGERANT CHARGING
WARNING:
 Your eyes should not be exposed to refrigerant (liquid).
Any liquid HFC-134a (R-134a) escaping by accident shows a temperature as low as approximately
–6°C (32°F) below freezing point. Should liquid HFC-134a (R-134a) get into your eyes, it may cause a
serious injury. To protect your eyes against such accident, it is necessary to always wear goggles.
Should it occur that HFC-134a (R-134a) strikes your eyes, consult a doctor immediately.
– Do not use your hand to rub the affected eye(s). Instead, use quantities of fresh cold water to
splash it over the affected area to gradually raise temperature of such area above freezing point.
– Obtain proper treatment as soon as possible from a doctor or eye specialist.
 Should the HFC-134a (R-134a) liquid come into contact with your skin, the affected area should be
treated in the same manner as when skin is frostbitten or frozen.
 Refrigerant must not be handled near where welding or steam cleaning is performed.
 Refrigerant should be kept at a cold and dark place. It should never be stored where a high temper-
ature is anticipated, e.g. where exposed to direct sun light, close to fire or inside vehicle (including
trunk room).
 Avoid breathing fumes produced when HFC-134a (R-134a) is burned. Such fumes may be hazard-
ous to health.
Replenish compressor oil

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
SERVICE PRECAUTION
When servicing air conditioning system, note the following instructions.
REFRIGERANT LINE
Never use heat for bending pipes. When bending a pipe, try to make its bending radius as slight as possible.
Keep internal parts of air conditioning free from moisture and dirt. When disconnecting any line from system,
install a blind plug or cap to the fitting immediately.
When connecting hoses and pipes, apply a few drops of compressor oil (refrigerant oil) to seats of coupling
nuts and O-ring.
When tightening or loosening a fitting, use two wrenches, one for turning and the other for support.
Tighten flared nuts by the following specified torque.
Tightening torque
8 mm pipe : 13 N·m (1.3 kg-m, 9.5 lb-ft)
12 mm pipe : 23 N·m (2.3 kg-m, 16.6 lb-ft)
14.5 mm pipe : 33 N·m (3.3 kg-m, 23.8 lb-ft) WARNING:
Should refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) strike your eye(s), consult a doctor immediately.
 Do not use your hand to rub affected eye(s). Instead, use quantities of fresh cold water to splash it
over affected area to thus gradually raise its temperature above the freezing point.
 Obtain proper treatment as soon as possible from a doctor or eye specialist. Should liquid refriger-
ant HFC-134a (R-134a) get on your skin, such affected part should be treated in the same manner as
when skin is frostbitten or frozen.
1. Suction hose:
Apply compressor oil (refrigerant oil) to O-ring.4. Expansion valve:

A/C REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SWITCH
INSPECTION
1) Check A/C refrigerant pressure switch (1) for continuity at
normal temperature (approximately 25°C (77°F)) when A/C
system has a proper charge of refrigerant and A/C system
(compressor) is under operation. In each of these cases,
switch should show proper continuity.
2) Check continuity between high and low pressure switch ter-
minals (1) at specified pressure as shown.
High and low pressure switch specification

3F-6 WHEELS AND TIRES
INFLATION OF TIRES
The pressure recommended for any model is carefully calculated to give a satisfactory ride, stability, steering,
tread wear, tire life and resistance to bruises.
Tire pressure, with tires cold, (after vehicle has set for 3 hours or more, or driven less than one mile) should be
checked monthly or before any extended trip. Set to the specifications on the “Tire Placard” located on the left
door (right door for right-hand side steering vehicle) lock pillar.
It is normal for tire pressure to increase when the tires become hot during driving.
Do not bleed or reduce tire pressure after driving. Bleeding reduces the “Cold Inflation Pressure”.
Higher than recommended pressure can cause :
Hard ride
Tire bruising or carcass damage
Rapid tread wear at center of tire
Unequal pressure on same axle can cause :
Uneven braking
Steering lead
Reduced handling
Swerve on acceleration
Lower than recommended pressure can cause :
Tire squeal on turns
Hard Steering
Rapid and uneven wear on the edges of the tread
Tire rim bruises and rupture
Tire cord breakage
High tire temperature
Reduced handling
High fuel consumption
TIRE ROTATION
To equalize wear, rotate tires according to left figure. Radial tires
should be rotated periodically. Set tire pressure.
NOTE:
Due to their design, radial tires tend to wear faster in the
shoulder area, particularly in front positions. This makes
regular rotation especially necessary.
[A] : 5-tire rotation
[B] : 4-tire rotation
LH : Left-hand drive
RH : Right-hand drive
