Slowly pour coolant into the reserve tank until it reaches the full line.
| Coolant quantity |
|---|
| 2.1 liters (2.2 US qts, 1.8 Imp. qts.) |
Note
To prevent foreign matter such as dust or dirt from entering the cooling system, make sure to confirm that the container used to add coolant is clean and free of foreign matter such as dust or dirt.
When using the GTS:
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch on (IG).
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Active Test / Activate the Water Pump.
Keep the coolant at the full line in the reserve tank to compensate for the drop in coolant level when the air bleeds.
| Standard |
|---|
| Air bleeding from the inverter cooling system is completed when the noise made by the inverter water pump assembly becomes smaller and the circulation of coolant in the reserve tank improves. |
Tech Tips
If free spinning of the inverter water pump is detected for approximately 5 seconds, fail-safe control will be activated to suspend the operation of the pump for approximately 15 seconds and resume operation for approximately 4 seconds repeatedly. Operation of the inverter water pump will return to normal if coolant is added.
Loud noise made by the inverter water pump assembly and poor circulation of coolant in the reserve tank indicates that there is air in the cooling system.
When not using the GTS:
Turn the power switch on (READY). [*1]
Turn the power switch off and add coolant to the full line because the coolant level drops as the air bleeds. [*2]
Note
Be sure to turn the power switch off before adding SLLC.
Do not work on the components in the engine compartment while the vehicle is in the READY-on state because the engine is in intermittent operation.
Repeat steps [*1] and [*2] until air bleeding from the cooling system is completed.
| Standard |
|---|
| Air bleeding from the inverter cooling system is completed when the noise made by the inverter water pump assembly becomes smaller and the circulation of coolant in the reserve tank improves. |
Tech Tips
Loud noise made by the inverter water pump assembly and poor circulation of coolant in the reserve tank indicates that there is air in the cooling system.
After the air is completely bled from the cooling system, tighten the reserve tank cap.
Add coolant to the full line of the reserve tank.
WARM UP COMPRESSOR
Keep the A/C switch on for at least 2 minutes to warm up the compressor.
Note
To prevent damage to the compressor, be sure to warm up the compressor when turning the air conditioning on after removing and installing air conditioning system lines (including the compressor).
INSPECT FOR REFRIGERANT LEAK
After recharging the air conditioning system with refrigerant, inspect for refrigerant leaks using a halogen leak detector.
Carry out the test under the following conditions:
Power switch off.
Secure good ventilation (the halogen leak detector may react to volatile gases which are not refrigerant, such as gasoline vapor and exhaust gas).
Repeat the inspection 2 or 3 times.
Measure the pressure to make sure that there is some refrigerant remaining in the air conditioning system.
Pressure when the compressor is off: approx. 392 to 588 kPa (3.9 to 5.9 kgf/cm2, 57 to 85 psi)
| *1 | Halogen Leak Detector |
| *a | Inspect for Leak |
Using a halogen leak detector, inspect for refrigerant leaks from the air conditioning system.
| *1 | Halogen Leak Detector |
| *2 | Drain Hose |
Bring the halogen leak detector close to the drain hose with the detector power off, and then turn the detector on.
Tech Tips
After the blower motor has stopped, leave the cooling unit for more than 15 minutes.
Bring the halogen leak detector sensor under the drain hose.
When bringing the halogen leak detector close to the drain hose, make sure that the halogen leak detector does not react to volatile gases. If it is not possible to avoid interference from volatile gases, the vehicle should be lifted up to allow checking for leaks.
If a refrigerant leak is not detected from the drain hose, remove the blower motor control from the cooling unit. Insert the halogen leak detector sensor into the unit and check for a leak.
Disconnect the pressure sensor connector and leave it for approximately 20 minutes. Bring the halogen leak detector close to the pressure sensor and check for a leak.
Tech Tips
When checking for leaks, the presence of oily dirt at a joint can indicate a leak.
INSPECT FOR COOLANT LEAK (for Inverter)
Remove the reserve tank cap.
CAUTION:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not remove the reserve tank cap while the coolant for the inverter is still hot.
Install a radiator cap tester.
Pump the radiator cap tester to 122 kPa (1.2 kgf/ cm2, 18 psi), and then check that the pressure does not drop.
Tech Tips
If the pressure drops, check the hoses, radiator, inverter water pump assembly, inverter with converter, and hybrid vehicle transaxle assembly for leaks.
Reinstall the reserve tank cap.
