•
On air-conditioning service equipment with a transparent oil separator, read and take
note of the oil level before removing refrigerant.
•
Do not carry out this step on empty air-conditioning systems (pressure gauge approx. 0
psi/bar) because if you do, air will get into the refrigerant bottle.
•
If the vehicle is cold, it may be necessary to repeat the suction procedure until all
refrigerant has been removed from the air-conditioning system. This step is carried out
automatically with some units.
Remove refrigerant by suction. see 8701 87 01 Connecting service equipment to the
air-conditioning system.
Remove air-conditioning compressor.

•
If there are chips in the system, the air conditioning must be flushed.
•
When using air conditioning service equipment with a flushing function, follow the
procedure described in the operating instructions provided by the relevant manufacturer.
•
If you only have access to air conditioning service equipment without a flushing function,
it is still possible to flush the air conditioning system in the conventional way. See
description below.
Check connections on the condenser, on the desiccator and at the refrigerant lines for the
desiccator for signs of wear/chips.
Is there wear/chips?
