DISPLAY SCREEN
Displays the operational status of the system.
AUTO SWITCH

The compressor, intake door, air mix doors, outlet doors and blower speed are automatically controlled so
that the in-vehicle temperature will reach, and be maintained at the set temperature selected by the oper-
ator.
TEMPERATURE DIAL (DRIVER)
Increases or decreases the driver zone temperature.
TEMPERATURE DIAL (PASSENGER)
Increases or decreases the passenger zone temperature.
RECIRCULATION SWITCH ()

When pressed an indicator turns ON in the display, and air inlet is set to recirculation mode.

Recirculation mode is cancelled by pressing the switch again, turning ON the front defroster, pressing the
OFF switch, or pressing the A/C switch to turn off the A/C system and compressor.
DEFROSTER () SWITCH
Positions the air outlet doors to the defrost position. Also positions the intake door to the outside air position.
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SWITCH
When switch is ON, rear window is defogged.
OFF SWITCH (HOLD FAN DOWN SWITCH UNTIL SYSTEM SHUTS OFF)
The compressor and blower are OFF, the intake door is set to the outside air position, and the air outlet doors
are set to the foot (75% foot and 25% defrost) position.
A/C SWITCH
The compressor is ON or OFF.
(Pressing the A/C switch when the AUTO switch is ON will turn off the A/C switch and compressor.)
MODE SWITCH
Controls the air discharge outlets.
FRONT FAN SWITCH
Manually controls the blower speed. Seven speeds are available for manual control (as shown on the display
screen).
REAR FAN SWITCH (FRONT)
Manually controls the rear blower speed. Four speeds are available for manual control. When the rear fan
switch (front) is in the off (0) position, the rear blower motor cannot operate. Position (R) allows control of rear
blower speed and rear temperature/mode operation to be transferred to rear air control.
REAR TEMPERATURE/MODE DIAL (FRONT)
Increases or decreases the rear zone temperature and adjusts the mode simultaneously. FLOOR is full hot
setting, FLOOR/PANEL is warm setting, and PANEL is full cold setting.

REFRIGERANT LINES
Revision: August 20072004 QX56
CAUTION:
Cap or wrap the A/C refrigerant pipe ends with a suitable material such as vinyl tape to avoid the
entry of contaminants.
4. Remove the expansion valve.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:

Replace the O-rings on the A/C refrigerant pipes with new ones, then apply compressor oil to them
when installing them.

After charging refrigerant, check for leaks.
Checking for Refrigerant LeaksEJS002DV
Perform a visual inspection of all refrigeration parts, fittings, hoses and components for signs of A/C lubricant
leakage, damage, and corrosion. Any A/C lubricant leakage may indicate an area of refrigerant leakage. Allow
extra inspection time in these areas when using either an electronic refrigerant leak detector (J-41995) or fluo-
rescent dye leak detector (J-42220).
If any dye is observed using a fluorescent dye leak detector (J-42220), confirm the leak using a electronic
refrigerant leak detector (J-41995). It is possible that the dye is from a prior leak that was repaired and not
properly cleaned.
When searching for leaks, do not stop when one leak is found but continue to check for additional leaks at all
system components and connections.
When searching for refrigerant leaks using an electronic refrigerant leak detector (J-41995), move the probe
along the suspected leak area at 25 - 50 mm (1 - 2 in) per second and no further than 6 mm (1/4 in) from the
component.
CAUTION:
Moving the electronic refrigerant leak detector probe slower and closer to the suspected leak area will
improve the chances of finding a leak.
Checking System for Leaks Using the Fluorescent Dye Leak DetectorEJS002DW
1. Check the A/C system for leaks using the fluorescent dye leak detector and safety goggles (J-42220) in a
low sunlight area (area without windows preferable). Illuminate all components, fittings and lines. The dye
will appear as a bright green/yellow area at the point of leakage. Fluorescent dye observed at the evapo-
rator drain opening indicates an evaporator core assembly leak (tubes, core or expansion valve).
2. If the suspected area is difficult to see, use an adjustable mirror or wipe the area with a clean shop rag or
cloth, then inspect the shop rag or cloth with the fluorescent dye leak detector (J-42220) for dye residue.
3. After the leak is repaired, remove any residual dye using refrigerant dye cleaner (J-43872) to prevent
future misdiagnosis.
4. Perform a system performance check and then verify the leak repair using a electronic refrigerant leak
detector (J-41995).
NOTE:

Other gases in the work area or substances on the A/C components, for example, anti-freeze, wind-
shield washer fluid, solvents and lubricants, may falsely trigger the leak detector. Make sure the sur-
faces to be checked are clean.

Clean with a dry cloth or blow off with shop air.

Do not allow the sensor tip of the electronic refrigerant leak detector (J-41995) to contact with any sub-
stance. This can also cause false readings and may damage the detector.
Dye InjectionEJS002DX
NOTE:
This procedure is only necessary when recharging the system or when the compressor has seized and must
be replaced.
1. Check the A/C system static (at rest) pressure. Pressure must be at least 345 kPa (3.52 kg/cm
2 , 50 psi). Expansion valve bolts : 4 N·m (0.41 kg-m, 35 in-lb)
A/C refrigerant pipe to expansion valve bolt : Refer to ATC-164, "
Compo-
nents" .
