I - REMOVAL PREPARATION OPERATION
aPosition the vehicle on a two-post lift (see Vehicle:
Towing and lifting) (02A, Lifting equipment).
aDrain the coolant circuit using the refrigerant
charging station.
aDisconnect the battery (see Battery: Removal - Re-
fitting) (80A, Battery).
aRemove the front bumper (see Front bumper as-
sembly: Exploded view) and (see Exterior body
front trim assembly: Exploded view) (55A, Exteri-
or protection).aRemove:
-the air deflector mountings (1) ,
-the air deflector (2) .
aRemove the intercooler (see ) (12B, Turbocharging).

aRemove the bolts from the pipes on the condenser
(see 62A, Air conditioning, Air conditioning: List
and location of components, page 62A-1) .
aDisconnect the pipes from the condenser (see 62A,
Air conditioning, Air conditioning: List and loca-
tion of components, page 62A-1) .
aFit blanking plugs on the pipe openings.
aRemove (see 62A, Air conditioning, Air conditio-
ning: List and location of components, page
62A-1) :
-the condenser bolts,
-the condenser. Equipment required

IMPORTANT
To avoid all risk of damage to the systems, apply
the safety and cleanliness instructions and opera-
tion recommendations before carrying out any
repair (see Air conditioning: Precautions for the
repair) .
WARNING
To prevent moisture from entering the system,
place plugs on the cold loop components which are
open to the air.
Note:
Use blanking plugs for the fuel circuits with part
numbers 77 01 208 229 or 77 01 476 857 to plug
any openings exposed to the open air. They must
be clean. Do not use any which have already been
used to plug a fuel circuit.
WARNING
Consult the device's operating manual to avoid
incorrect use.
