Safety Regulations For Extraction And Filling Systems

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2023 Porsche Panamera, 2022 Porsche Panamera, 2021 Porsche Panamera, 2020 Porsche Panamera, and 2019 Porsche Panamera. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: Incorrect handling of air conditioning servicing equipment. 
  • Unnecessary damage to the environment due to emerging refrigerant. 

    → Before connecting the filling system to the air-conditioning system, make sure that the manual shut-off valves are closed.

    → Before disconnecting the filling system from the air-conditioning system, make sure that the process is complete so that no refrigerant can escape into the atmosphere.

    → After the purified refrigerant has been filled into an external compressed gas bottle from the filling system, the manual shut-off valves on the bottle and on the filling system should be closed.

    → Do not expose the filling system to moisture or use in a damp environment.

    → Shut off the power supply at the filling system before carrying out maintenance work.

    → An extension cable with cross-sectional area of at least 2.5 mm should be used only when absolutely necessary.

    → In the case of fire, the external bottle should be removed.

    → Fill the oil extracted from the air-conditioning system into a suitable closable container (the refrigerant oil contains small quantities of refrigerant).

    → The filling system must be secured to prevent it from rolling away.

    → Set down and use the air conditioning servicing equipment with refrigerant R1234yf only in cool, well-ventilated places.

    → Protect from heat and direct sunlight and do not set down and use in areas with temperatures above 50°C.

    → Do not set down and use in or near cellars or other lower-lying areas.

    → Only set down and use in areas with adequate air flow (complete air exchange at least once per hour in the workshop area and 3 times per hour in lower-lying areas, e.g. in assembly groups).
