COMPRESSOR (for 2AR) REMOVAL


  1. RECOVER REFRIGERANT FROM AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM


    1. Turn the A/C switch on.

    2. Operate the air conditioning with a set temperature of 25°C (77°F) and the blower at low for 10 minutes to circulate the refrigerant. This causes most of the compressor oil from the various components of the air conditioning system to collect in the air conditioning compressor.

    3. Turn the ignition switch off.

    4. Recover the refrigerant from the air conditioning system using a refrigerant recovery unit.
