HVAC SYSTEM (HEATER, VENTILATOR AND A/C) > Refrigerant Recovery Procedure
CAUTION:
• During operation, be sure to wear protective goggles and protective gloves.
• Connect the refrigerant recovery system with the manifold gauge set to discharge the refrigerant from the A/C system and recycle the gas.
• When recycling the discharged refrigerant, keep service cans on hand. Because the recovery rate with the recovery system is approx. 90%, service cans are necessary to charge the refrigerant.
• Follow the detailed operation procedure described in the operation manual attached to the refrigerant recovery system.
2. Stop the engine.
3. Make sure the valves on low-/high-pressure sides of manifold gauge set are fully closed.
