PRECAUTION
Note
After turning the power switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal notices before proceeding with work Click here.
RECOVER REFRIGERANT FROM AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
Turn the power switch on (READY).
Turn the A/C switch on.
Operate the cooler compressor under the conditions shown below:
| Item | Condition |
|---|---|
| Engine Speed | Idling |
| Operating Time | 3 minutes or more |
| A/C Switch Status | ON |
| Blower Switch Status | HI |
| Set Temperature | MAX COOL |
This cause most of the compressor oil from the various components of the A/C system to collect in the A/C compressor.
Tech Tips
It is not necessary to operate the cooler compressor if the A/C does not operate because of compressor lock etc.
Turn the power switch off.
Recover the refrigerant from the air conditioning system using a refrigerant recovery unit.
Tech Tips
Use the refrigerant recover unit in accordance with the manufacturer's instruction manual.
DISABLE BRAKE CONTROL
Wait at least 2 minutes after turning the power switch off.
Note
When the brake pedal is depressed or the door courtesy switch is turned on even if the power switch is off, the brake control system activates. Therefore do not depress the brake pedal or open/close the doors until the reservoir level switch connector is disconnected.
Disconnect the reservoir level switch connector with the parking brake applied.
Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal Click here.
Depress the brake pedal 40 times or more to return all the fluid in the accumulator back to the reservoir.
Check that the brake pedal can not be further depressed.
Release the parking brake.
