Check air conditioning system for leakage - AR83.30-P-1761GW

MODEL 463 as of model year 2013/model refinement package 2012,/system drained 

INSPECT Checking     
DANGER Risk of accident  caused by vehicle starting off by itself when engine is running. Risk of injury  caused by contusions and burns during starting procedure or when working near the engine as it is running Secure vehicle to prevent it from moving by itself.
Wear closed and snug-fitting work clothes.
Do not touch hot or rotating parts.
AS00.00-Z-0005-01A
DANGER Risk of explosion  caused by welding or soldering work on closed air conditioning system. Risk of poisoning  caused by inhaling overheated refrigerant vapors. Risk of injury  to skin and eyes caused by contact with liquid refrigerants. Never perform welding work on or near a closed air conditioning system. No smoking or open flames. Wear safety glasses and protective gloves. Work only in well ventilated areas. Carry out repair work on the air conditioning system circuit only after the system has been emptied. AS83.00-Z-0001-01A
NOTES Procedure for a damaged or leaky air conditioning system   AH83.30-N-0004-01A
IMPORTANT Notes on handling R134a refrigerant Air conditioning with refrigerant R134a AH83.30-N-0003-01A
1 Evacuate air conditioning system Air conditioning service unit  
2 Fill air conditioning system with nitrogen IMPORTANT Fill system with a system pressure of 15 bar only when engine is cold. This system pressure must be maintained for at least 4 h.
Fill high and low-pressure side of air conditioning with nitrogen.
IMPORTANT Temperature changes during the pressure test can cause pressure surges, e.g. due to weather changes, transition from day to night, cooling down of engine compartment. Make sure the ambient conditions remain constant.

If there is a pressure loss and no leak is found in the refrigeration circuit: ↓
*BR00.45-Z-1004-03A 
    Check air conditioning for leaks with leak R detector additives AR83.30-P-1761GWP 
4 Drain nitrogen    
5 Charge air conditioning system IMPORTANT Fill air conditioning system with refrigerant 134a.
