10) Check for each pressure of low side and high side if it is within shaded range of graph. If each gauge reading is out
of specified pressure, correct defective part referring to the following table.
When diagnosing troubles of abnormal pressure on the low side and high side for each pressure more specifically,
refer to “Trouble Diagnosis for Abnormal Pressure”.
NOTE
Pressure registered on gauge varies with ambient temperature. Therefore, use the graphs when
determining if pressures are normal or not.
Low side and high side pressure example, Gauges should read as follows when ambient temperature is 30
°C (86 °F)
Pressure on high pressure gauge (HI): 1130 – 1560 kPa (11.4 – 15.6 kgf/cm2)
Pressure on low pressure gauge (LO): 270 – 390 kPa (2.7 – 3.9 kgf/cm2)

Recovery
When discharging refrigerant out of A/C system, always
recover it by using refrigerant recovery and recycling
equipment because discharging refrigerant HFC-134a
(R-134a) into atmosphere would cause adverse effect to
environments.
NOTE
• After recovering refrigerant from system,
the amount of removed compressor oil
must be measured for replenishing
compressor oil.
• When handling recovery and recycling
equipment, be sure to follow the
instruction manual for the equipment.
Replenishing Compressor Oil
It is necessary to replenish specified amount of
compressor oil to compressor from compressor suction
side hole (1) before evacuating and charging refrigerant.When charging refrigerant only
When charging refrigerant without replacing any
component, replenish the same amount of measured oil
when recovering refrigerant (if not measure, replenish 10
cm
3 (10 ml, 0.34 US.oz, 0.35 Imp.oz) oil).
When replacing compressor
CAUTION!
Be sure to use specified compressor oil or an
equivalent compressor oil.
Compressor oil is sealed in each new compressor by the
amount required for A/C system. Therefore, when using
a new compressor, drain the calculated amount of oil
from it.
“C” = “A” – “B”
“C”: Amount of oil to be drained
“A”: Amount of oil in a new compressor
“B”: Amount of oil in removed compressor
NOTE
Compressor assembly supplied from factory
is filled up with the following amount of oil.

When replacing other parts
Replenish the following amount of oil to compressor.
Amount of compressor oil to be replenished
Evaporator: 15 cm3 (15 ml, 0.51 US.oz, 0.53 Imp.oz)
Condenser: 10 cm3 (10 ml, 0.34 US.oz, 0.35 Imp.oz)

check if the condenser cooling fan motor operates
smoothly.
Reference
Condenser cooling fan specified current at 12 V:
7 A maximum
Condenser Assembly On-Vehicle InspectionS6RW0D7216004
Check the followings.
• Clog of condenser fins
If any clog is found, condenser fins should be washed
with water and should be dried with compressed air.
• Condenser fins for leakage and breakage
If any defects are found, repair or replace condenser.
• Condenser fittings for leakage.
If any defects are found, repair or replace condenser.

CAUTION!
Do not damage condenser fins. If condenser
fin is bent, straighten it by using flat head
screwdriver or pair of pliers.
Removal
1) Recover refrigerant from A/C system referring to
“Operation Procedure for Refrigerant Charge”.
NOTE
The amount of removed compressor oil must
be measured for replenishing compressor
oil.
