Automatic Air Conditioning System








AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM (for Automatic Air Conditioning System):

PRECAUTION





1. DO NOT HANDLE REFRIGERANT IN AN ENCLOSED AREA OR NEAR AN OPEN FLAME

2. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION
3. BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET LIQUID REFRIGERANT IN YOUR EYES OR ON YOUR SKIN
If liquid refrigerant gets in your eyes or on your skin:





(a) wash the area with lots of cold water.

CAUTION: Do not rub your eyes or skin.

(b) apply clean petroleum jelly to the skin.
(c) go immediately to a hospital or see a physician for professional treatment.
4. NEVER HEAT CONTAINER OR EXPOSE IT TO NAKED FLAME
5. BE CAREFUL NOT TO DROP CONTAINER AND NOT TO APPLY PHYSICAL SHOCKS TO IT





6. DO NOT OPERATE COMPRESSOR WITHOUT ENOUGH REFRIGERANT IN REFRIGERANT SYSTEM
If there is not enough refrigerant in the refrigerant system, oil lubrication will be insufficient and compressor burnout may occur. Necessary care should be taken to avoid this.

7. DO NOT OPEN HIGH PRESSURE MANIFOLD VALVE WHILE COMPRESSOR IS OPERATING
Open and close only the low pressure valve. If the high pressure valves are opened, refrigerant flows in the reverse direction causing the charging cylinder to rupture.
8. BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERCHARGE SYSTEM WITH REFRIGERANT
If refrigerant is overcharged, it causes problems such as insufficient cooling, poor fuel economy, engine overheating, etc.
9. DO NOT OPERATE ENGINE AND COMPRESSOR WITH NO REFRIGERANT FILLED

CAUTION: This may damage the inside of the compressor because the compressor parts always move regardless of whether the A/C system is turned on or off.

10. PRECAUTION FOR DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY CABLE

NOTE: When disconnecting the negative (-) battery terminal, initialize the following systems after the terminal is reconnected.
