WARNING
ICON 26 44 25
Use care to prevent refrigerant from touching skin or eyes. Liquid refrigerant, when
exposed to air, quickly evaporates and will freeze skin or eye tissues. Serious
injury or blindness may result if you come in contact with liquid refrigerant.
Refrigerant R-134a air conditioning systems should not be pressure tested or leak
tested with compressed air. Combustible mixtures of air and R-134a may form,
resulting in a fire or explosion, which could cause personnel injury or death.
CAUTION
Refrigerant oil must be added to air conditioner system before charging with
refrigerant or air conditioner compressor will be damaged. Add same amount of
new refrigerant oil in air conditioner compressor as was noted during recovery or
evacuation. Maximum amount of refrigerant oil required for air conditioner system
is 13 oz. (368.5 g).
RECOVERY and EVACUATION/RECYCLING procedures must be preformed before
system is charged or damage to system may result.
Air conditioner system must be in a 10 to 15 in. Hg vacuum status before charging.
Use care to prevent overcharging or damage to compressor may result.
NOTE
Obtain enough refrigerant in container to fully charge system.
