dure
A: PROCEDURE
CAUTION:
•During operation, be sure to wear protective
goggles and protective gloves.
•Before charging the refrigerant, evacuate the
system to remove small amounts of moisture
remaining in the system.
The moisture in the system can be completely
evacuated only under the minimum vacuum
level. The minimum vacuum level affects the
temperature in the system.
•The list below shows the vacuum values nec-
essary to boil water at various temperatures. In
addition, the vacuum levels indicated on the
gauge are approx. 3.3 kPa (25 mmHg, 0.98 inHg)
lower than those measured at 304.8 m (1,000 ft)
above sea level.
1) Close the valves on low-/high-pressure sides of
the manifold gauge.
2) Install the low-/high-pressure hoses to the corre-
sponding service ports on the vehicle.
3) Connect the center hose of the manifold gauge
set with the vacuum pump.
4) Carefully open the valves on the low-/high-pres-
sure sides to activate the vacuum pump.
5) After the low-pressure gauge reaches 100.0 kPa
(750 mmHg, 29.5 inHg) or higher, evacuate the
system for approx. 15 minutes. (Continue evacua-
tion).
6) After 15 minutes of evacuation, if the reading
shows 100.0 kPa (750 mmHg, 29.5 inHg) or higher,
close the valves on the both sides to stop the vac-
uum pump.

7) Note the low-pressure gauge reading.
8) Leave it at least 5 minutes, and then check the
low-pressure gauge reading

5. Refrigerant Leak Check
A: INSPECTION
1) At engine speed below 1500rpm, operate the A/
C system for approx. 10 minutes, and confirm that
the high-side pressure shows at least 690 kPa
(7.03 kg/cm2, 100 psi). Then stop the engine to
start the leak test.
2) Starting from the connection between high-pres-
sure pipe and evaporator, check the system for
leaks along the high-pressure side through the
compressor. The following items must be checked
thoroughly.
3) Check the joint and seam between pressure
switch (dual switch) and high-pressure pipe.
4) Check the connections between condenser and
pipes, and welded joints on the condenser.
The leak tester may detect the oil on the condenser
fins as a leak.
5) Check the joint between compressor and hoses.
6) Check the machined area of the compressor and
other joints on the compressor.
7) Check the compressor shaft seal at the area
near the center of compressor clutch pulley.
Some shaft seals show a slight amount of leakage,
about 3 g (0.1 oz) per year. This is not a problem.
8) Starting from the connection between low-pres-
sure pipe and evaporator, check the system for
leakage along the low-pressure side through the
compressor. The following items must be checked
thoroughly.
•Connection between 2 parts
•Connection between pipe and plate
•Connection between pipes
9) Visually check the rubber area of the flexible
hose for cracks.
Check the entire length of the flexible hose, espe-
cially the connection with the metal hose end.
CAUTION:
Carefully check the external surface of hoses
and tubes at approx. 25 mm (0.98 in) per sec-
ond.
10) Disconnect the drain hose from the heater
case, and check the hose end for at least 10 sec-
onds.
After the test is finished, reconnect the drain hose.
11) Turn the ignition key to the ON position, and
run the blower at high speed for approx. 1 minute.
Stop the blower to check the ventilation grill on the
instrument panel. While moving the tester closer to
the grill, run the blower for 1 or 2 seconds, then stop
it. Check the grill at that point for at least 10 sec-
onds.
12) Check the valve in the service port.
13) Visually check the rubber seal in the service
port cap.
