WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2004 Porsche Boxster, 2003 Porsche Boxster, 2002 Porsche Boxster, 2001 Porsche Boxster, and 2000 Porsche Boxster. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
During all work on the air-conditioning system which necessitates opening the refrigerant system, the system contents must first be disposed of correctly. When doing so, follow the safety regulations.
Dirt and moisture must be kept out of the air-conditioning system's pipe system. Thorough cleanliness must therefore be ensured during all work. System components must never be cleaned on the inside with hot steam. Use only nitrogen for cleaning purposes.
When replacing a component, all openings must be closed off with suitable plugs.
