Air Conditioning System Precautions
General
The air conditioning system contains fluids and
components which could be potentially hazardous to
the service engineer or the environment if not
serviced and handled correctly. The following
guidelines are intended to alert the service engineer
to potential sources of danger and emphasise the
importance of ensuring the integrity of the Air
Conditioning operating conditions and components
fitted to the vehicle.
Where necessary, additional specific precautions are
detailed in the relevant sections of this Manual which
should be referred to prior to commencing repair
operations.
The refrigerant used in the air conditioning system is
HFC-134a (Hydrofluorocarbon) R134a.
WARNING: Servicing must only be carried out by
personnel familiar with both the vehicle system
and the charging and testing equipment. All
operations must be carried out in a well
ventilated area away from open flame and heat
sources.
WARNING: R134a is a hazardous liquid and when
handled incorrectly can cause serious injury.
Suitable protective clothing, consisting of face
protection, heat proof gloves, rubber boots and
rubber apron or waterproof overalls, must be
worn when carrying out operations on the air
conditioning system.
Remedial actions
If an accident involving R134a should occur, conduct
the following remedial actions:
lIf liquid R134a enters the eye, do not rub it.
Gently run large quantities of eye wash over
affected eye to raise the temperature. If an eye
wash is not available, cool, clean water may be
used to flush the eye. After rinsing, cover the
eye with a clean pad and seek immediate
medical attention.lIf liquid R134a is splashed onto the skin, run
large quantities of water over the affected area
to raise the temperature. Implement the same
action if the skin comes in contact with
discharging cylinders. Wrap the contaminated
body parts in blankets (or similar materials) and
seek immediate medical attention.
lIf the debilitating effects of inhalation of R134a
vapour is suspected, seek fresh air. If the
affected person is unconscious, move them
away from the contaminated area to fresh air
and apply artificial respiration and/or oxygen
and seek immediate medical attention.
WARNING: Due to its low evaporating
temperature, R134a must be handled with care.
R134a splashed on any part of the body will
cause immediate freezing of that area. Also,
refrigerant cylinders and replenishment trolleys
when discharging will freeze skin to them if
contact is made.
Service precautions
Observe the following precautions when handling
components used in the air conditioning system:
lAir conditioning units must not be lifted by their
hoses, pipes or capillary lines.
lHoses and lines must not be subjected to any
twist or stress; the efficiency of the system will
be impaired by kinks or restrictions. Ensure that
hoses are correctly positioned before tightening
couplings, and ensure that all clips and supports
are utilised.
lFlexible hoses should not be positioned close to
the exhaust manifold (less than 100mm) unless
protected by heat shielding.
lCompleted assemblies must be checked for
refrigeration lines touching metal panels. Any
direct contact of components and panels may
transmit noise and so must be eliminated.
lThe appropriate torque wrench must be used
when tightening refrigerant connections to the
stipulated value. An additional spanner must be
used to hold the union to prevent twisting of the
pipe when tightening connections.
lBefore connecting any hose or pipe, ensure that
refrigerant oil is applied to the seat of the new 'O'
rings, BUT NOT to the threads of the
connection.
lAll protective plugs must remain in place to seal
the component until immediately prior to
connection.
lEnsure components are at room temperature
before uncapping, to prevent condensation of
moisture from the air that enters it.

Air Conditioning Compressor
Replacement
A new compressor is supplied filled with a full charge
(X cm3) of refrigerant oil.

+ CAPACITIES, FLUIDS AND
LUBRICANTS, Capacities.A calculated quantity of
oil must be drained from the new compressor before
fitting. To calculate the quantity of oil to be drained:
1Remove the drain plug from the old
compressor.
2Invert the compressor and gravity drain the oil
into a calibrated measuring cylinder. Rotate the
compressor clutch to ensure the compressor is
completely drained.
3Note the quantity of oil drained (Y cm
3).
4Calculate the quantity of oil to be drained from
the new compressor using the following
formula:
X cm
3 — (Y cm3 + 20 cm3) = Q cm3
5Remove the drain plug from the new
compressor and drain Q cm3 of oil. Fit and
tighten the compressor drain plug.
Body Repairs
General
Body shells are of welded construction and bolted to
a chassis frame. Front and rear sections of the shell
are designed as 'energy absorbing' zones. This
means they are designed to deform progressively
when subjected to impact in order to minimise the
likelihood of injury to vehicle occupants.
It is essential that design dimensions and strength
are restored in accident rectification. It is important
that neither structural weakness nor excessive local
stiffness are introduced into the vehicle during body
repair.
Repairs usually involve a combination of operations
ranging from straightening procedures to renewal of
individual panels or panel assemblies. The repairer
will determine the repair method and this decision will
take into account a balance of economics between
labour and material costs and the availability of repair
facilities in both equipment and skills. It may also
involve considerations of the vehicles' downtime,
replacement vehicle availability and repair turn-
around time.
It is expected that a repairer will select the best and
most economic repair method possible, making use
of the facilities available. The instructions given are
intended to assist a skilled body repairer by
expanding approved procedures for panel
replacement. The objective is to restore the vehicle
to a safe running condition by carrying out a repair
which is as close as is feasible to original standard.
The results should not advertise to the experienced
eye that the vehicle has been damaged, although the
repair might not be identical in all respects to the
original factory build. Commercial bodyshop repair
facilities cannot always duplicate methods of
construction used during production.
Operations covered in this Manual do not include
reference to testing the vehicle after repair. It is
essential that work is inspected and suspension
geometry checked after completion. Where
necessary a road test of the vehicle should be carried
out, particularly where safety-related items are
concerned.
Where major units have been disconnected or
removed it is necessary to ensure that fluid levels are
checked and topped up where necessary. It is also
necessary to ensure that the repaired vehicle is in a
roadworthy condition in respect of tyre pressures,
lights, washer fluid etc.
