Safety Precautions

Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for the correct servicing unit operating procedure. 

Only qualified technicians are allowed to work on air conditioning (A/C) systems. 

Wear safety goggles and protective gloves. 

EYE CONTACT: If refrigerant comes into contact with the eyes, immediately flush the eyes with plenty of water for 15 minutes. Seek medical attention. 

SKIN CONTACT: If liquid refrigerant comes into contact with the skin, it produces severe frostbite. Immediately flush affected areas with water for 15 minutes. Seek medical attention. 

INHALED: Toxic gases generated when refrigerant is heated are hazardous to health. The gases have an irritating smell and can cause lung damage. The symptoms can continue for a long time after having been in contact with the gases. The gases can cause lung damage even if the amount of gas in the air is too small to smell. 

Refrigerant is flammable and explosive. 

Make sure that refrigerant bottles are not exposed to temperatures greater than 45°C. 

Make sure that the local regulations regarding work on air conditioning (A/C) systems are adhered to.
