pansion valve connecting pipe: Removal - Refit-
ting, page 62A-28) connecting pipe assembly.
II - FINAL OPERATION.
aRefit:
-the scoop under the scuttle panel grille (see Scoop
under the scuttle panel grille: Removal - Refit-
ting) (MR 412, 56A, Exterior equipment),
-the scuttle panel grille (see Scuttle panel grille:
Removal - Refitting) (MR 412, 56A, Exterior

aConsult the refrigerant and oil quantity values before
filling the circuit (see 62A, Air conditioning, Air
conditioning: Parts and consumables for the re-
pair, page 62A-2) .
aFill the refrigerant circuit using a refrigerant charg-
ing station (see 62A, Air conditioning, Refriger-
ant circuit: Draining - Filling, page 62A-8) .
aCheck that the air conditioning system is operating
correctly (see 62A, Air conditioning, Air condi-
tioning: Check, page 62A-4) .
aCheck for leaks (see 62A, Air conditioning, Refrig-
erant circuit: Check, page 62A-7) . Equipment required

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 plugs which have already
been used to plug a fuel circuit.
Note:
The « expansion valve - intermediate pipe » and
« expansion valve - dehydrator reservoir » connect-
ing pipes cannot be separated.
WARNING
Consult the device's operating manual to avoid
incorrect use.
