  Risk of explosion  when using a forming gas with incorrect mixing ratio. Risk of suffocation  due to inhalation of forming gas. Risk of injury  due to bursting of high-pressure hoses. Wear safety glasses and protective gloves. No smoking or open flames. Work in well-ventilated rooms only. AS83.00-Z-0001-02A
WARNING Risk of poisoning  caused by inhaling overheated refrigerant vapors from an air conditioning system containing R134a. Risk of injury  to skin and eyes caused by contact with liquid R134a refrigerant and when working on pressurized parts 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 rooms. Carry out repair work on the air conditioning system circuit only after the system has been evacuated. AS83.00-Z-0006-01A
  Risk of fire  due to ignition of R1234yf refrigerant on hot components. Risk of poisoning  caused by inhaling overheated refrigerant vapors. Risk of injury  to skin and eyes caused by contact with escaped R1234yf refrigerant and when working on pressurized parts. Risk of explosion  due to formation of ignitable refrigerant/air mixtures 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 rooms. Carry out repair work on the air conditioning system circuit only after the system has been evacuated. AS83.00-Z-0007-01A

INSPECT Check     
1 Remove expansion valve   AR83.30-P-5520GW 
2 Install adapter (1) in place of expansion valve with new sealing rings (2, 6) TORQUE SPECIFICATION Bolt, expansion valve *BA83.30-P-1016-01C 
    SPECIAL TOOL Adapter Fig 1
3 Connect leak tester to adapter (1)    
REFER TO SPECIAL TOOLS 000 588 19 21 00 Leak tester   WS83.00-P-0035B
4 Check evaporator for leaks using forming gas IMPORTANT The system pressure must be maintained for at least 4 h.
IMPORTANT The leak tester operator's manual must be observed.
 
    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. Ensure that the ambient conditions are identical.
If a pressure drop is determined

Replace evaporator.
