- Before connecting recovery/recycling/recharging equipment to vehicle, check recovery/recycling/recharging equipment gauges. No refrigerant pressure should be displayed. If NG, recover refrigerant from equipment lines.
- Connect recovery/recycling/recharging equipment to vehicle. Confirm refrigerant purity in supply tank using recovery/recycling/recharging equipment and refrigerant identifier. If NG, refer to Precautions For Refrigerant System Service .
- Confirm refrigerant purity in vehicle A/C system using recovery/recycling equipment and refrigerant identifier. If NG, refer to Precautions For Refrigerant System Service .
- Discharge refrigerant into the refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment. Measure oil discharged into the recovery/recycling/recharging equipment.
- Drain the oil from the old (removed) compressor into a graduated container and recover the amount of oil drained.
- Drain the oil from the new compressor into a separate, clean container.
- Measure the amount of new oil installed equal to amount drained from old compressor. Add this oil to new compressor through the suction port opening.
- Measure the amount of new oil equal to the amount recovered during discharging. Add this oil to new compressor through the suction port opening.
