Refer to the Workshop Equipment service information.

Procedure: the operations "testing, extraction (recycling), evacuation and charging" are to be performed in line with the relevant operating instructions.
The filters and dryers installed are to be replaced at the latest at the end of the period of use specified in the operating instructions and whenever the station has been drained (keep replacement filter to hand. available from equipment manufacturer. Refer to the operating instructions.
Other A/C service stations or flushing equipment that is approved by VW but not illustrated here may also be used.

Refer to the Workshop Equipment service information.

NOTE:

This A/C Service Station has the following known individual devices: charging cylinder, pressure gauge set, vacuum pump, shut-off valves and charging hose.

One quick-release coupling each (for service connections on high and low pressure side) is included in the delivery package of this A/C Service Station.

Air Conditioning Flush Tool VAS6337/1A from the Company Behr or Succeeding Model

NOTE:

With a filter -1- and two large cylindrical viewing glasses.

The filter in the refrigerant circuit flushing device depends on the type and degree of contamination in the flushed refrigerant circuit, it should be changed after 2 flushing cycles at the latest. If a heavily contaminated refrigerant circuit is flushed (the refrigerant oil from the refrigerant circuit is black and viscous, or there are many shavings in the refrigerant circuit), the filter should be replaced after flushing the refrigerant circuit.
