CHARGING
1. INSTALL CHARGING CYLINDER
HINT:
When handling the charging cylinder, always follow the direc-
tions given in the instruction manual.
(a) Charge the proper amount of refrigerant into the charging
cylinder.
(b) Connect the center hose to the charging cylinder.
CAUTION:
Do not open both high and low hand valves of manifold
gauge set.
(c) Open the valve of charging cylinder.
(d) Press the valve core on the side of manifold gauge and
expel the air inside of the center hose.
2. INSPECT REFRIGERATION SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
(a) Open the high pressure hand valve and charge refriger-
ant.
(b) When the low pressure gauge indicates 98 kPa
(1 kgf/cm
2, 14 psi) close the high pressure hand valve.
(c) Using a gas leak detector, check the system for leakage.
If leak is found, repair the faulty component or connection.
CAUTION:
Use the refrigerant recovery/ recycling machine to recover
the refrigerant whenever replacing parts.

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 a 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.
(e) Replenishment to be 100 ± 50 g after bubbles disapper.

EVACUATING
1. CONNECT QUICK DISCONNECT ADAPTER TO
CHARGING HOSES
2. REMOVE CAPS FROM SERVICE VALVES ON RE-
FRIGERANT LINES
3. SET ON MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
(a) Close both hand valves of manifold gauge set.
(b) Connect the quick disconnect adapters to the service
valves.
4. EVACUATE AIR FROM REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
(a) Connect the vacuum pump adapter to the vacuum pump.
(b) Connect the center hose of the manifold gauge set to the
vacuum pump adapter.
(c) Open both the high and low hand valves and run the vacu-
um pump.
(d) After 10 minutes or more, check that the low pressure
gauge indicates 750 mmHg (30 in. Hg) or more.
HINT:
If the reading is 750 mmHg (30 in. Hg) or more, close both hand
valves of manifold gauge set and stop the vacuum pump.
Check the system for leaks and repair if necessary.
(e) Close both the high and low hand valves and stop the vac-
uum pump.
(f) Leave the system in this condition for 5 minutes or more
and check that there is no gauge indicator.

PRECAUTION
1. DO NOT HANDLE REFRIGERANT IN AN ENCLOSED
AREA OR WEAR EYE PROTECTION
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 REFRIGERATION SYS-
TEM
If there is not enough refrigerant in the refrigerant system oil lu-
brication will be insufficient and compressor burnout may occur,
so that care to avoid this, necessary care should be taken.
7. DO NOT OPEN PRESSURE MANIFOLD VALVE WHILE
COMPRESSOR IS OPERATE
If the high pressure valve is 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.

DIAGNOSIS CODE LIST
If there is ºOº in the column of system check, an error can be detected when the mode is switched to
the system check mode.
If there is ºOº in the column of diagnosis mode, each unit is monitoring whether or not it has failure.
In case of detectng failure, it memorizes DTC.

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
CAUTION:

Check that the battery cables are connected to the
correct terminals.

Disconnect the battery cables when the battery is giv-
en a quick charge.

Do not perform tests with a high voltage insulation re-
sistance tester.

Never disconnect the battery while the engine is run-
ning.
1. CHECK BATTERY ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
Check the electrolyte quantity of each cell.
Maintenance-Free Battery:
If under the lower level, replace the battery (or add distilled wa-
ter if possible). Check the charging system.
Except Maintenance-Free Battery:
If under the lower level, add distilled water.
2. Except Maintenance-Free Battery:
CHECK BATTERY SPECIFIC GRAVITY
Check the specific gravity of each cell.
Standard specific gravity: 1.25 - 1.29 at 20°C (68°F)
If the specific gravity is less than specification, charge the bat-
tery.
3. Maintenance-Free Battery:
CHECK BATTERY VOLTAGE
(a) After having driven the vehicle and in the case that 20
minutes have not passed after having stopped the en-
gine, turn the ignition switch ON and turn on the electrical
system (headlight, blower motor, rear defogger etc.) for
60 seconds to remove the surface charge.
(b) Turn the ignition switch OFF and turn off the electrical sys-
tems.
(c) Measure the battery voltage between the negative (-)
and positive (+) terminals of the battery.
Standard voltage: 12.5 - 12.9 V at 20°C (68°F)
If the voltage is less than specification, charge the battery.

HINT:
Check the indicator as shown in illustration.
4. CHECK BATTERY TERMINALS, FUSIBLE LINK AND
FUSES
(a) Check that the battery terminals are not loose or cor-
roded.
(b) Check the fusible link and fuses for continuity.
5. INSPECT DRIVE BELT
(a) Visually check the belt for excessive wear, frayed cords
etc.
If any defect has been found, replace the drive belt.
HINT:
Cracks on the rib side of a belt are considered acceptable. If the
belt has chunks missing from the ribs, it should be replaced.
(b) Using a belt tension gauge, measure the drive belt ten-
sion.
Belt tension gauge:
DENSO BTG-20 (95506-00020)
Borroughs No. BT-33-73F
Drive belt tension:
New belt175 ± 5 lbf
Used belt115 ± 20 lbf
If the belt tension is not as specified, adjust it.
HINT:

ºNew beltº refers to a belt which has been used less than
5 minutes on a running engine.

ºUsed beltº refers to a belt which has been used on a run-
ning engine for 5 minutes or more.

After installing a belt, check that it fits properly in the
ribbed grooves.

Check with your hand to confirm that the belt has not
slipped out of the groove on the bottom of the pulley.
