Precautions For Refrigerant System Service INFOID:0000000011671992

GENERAL REFRIGERANT PRECAUTION


WARNING:

Revision: 2015 March HA-6 D23


PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION > [YD25DDTi]
• Never breathe A/C refrigerant and lubricant vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and
throat. Use only approved recovery/recycling equipment to discharge HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant. A
Ventilate work area before resuming service if accidental system discharge occurs. Additional health
and safety information may be obtained from refrigerant and lubricant manufacturers.
• Never release refrigerant into the air. Use approved recovery/recycling recharging equipment to cap-
B
ture the refrigerant each time an air conditioning system is discharged.
• Wear always eye and hand protection (goggles and gloves) when working with any refrigerant or air
conditioning system.
• Never store or heat refrigerant containers above 52°C (126°F). C
• Never heat a refrigerant container with an open flame; Place the bottom of the container in a warm
pail of water if container warming is required.
• Never intentionally drop, puncture, or incinerate refrigerant containers. D
• Keep refrigerant away from open flames: poisonous gas is produced if refrigerant burns.
• Refrigerant displaces oxygen, therefore be certain to work in well ventilated areas to prevent suffo-
cation.
• Never pressure test or leakage test HFC-134a (R-134a) service equipment and/or vehicle air condi- E
tioning systems with compressed air during repair. Some mixtures of air and HFC-134a (R-134a)
have been shown to be combustible at elevated pressures. These mixtures, if ignited, may cause
injury or property damage. Additional health and safety information may be obtained from refriger- F
ant manufacturers.
WORKING WITH HFC-134a (R-134a)
CAUTION: G
• CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant are not compatible. These regrigerants
must never be mixed, even in the smallest amounts. Compressor malfunction is likely occur if the
refrigerants are mixed.
H
• Use only specified lubricant for the HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system and HFC-134a (R-134a) compo-
nents. Compressor malfunction is likely to occur if lubricant other than that specified is used.
• The specified HFC-134a (R-134a) lubricant rapidly absorbs moisture from the atmosphere. The fol-
lowing handling precautions must be observed: HA
- Cap (seal) immediately the component to minimize the entry of moisture from the atmosphere when
removing refrigerant components from a vehicle.
- Never remove the caps (unseal) until just before connecting the components when installing refrig- J
erant components to a vehicle. Connect all refrigerant loop components as quickly as possible to
minimize the entry of moisture into system.
- Use only the specified lubricant from a sealed container. Reseal immediately containers of lubricant.
Lubricant becomes moisture saturated and should not be used without proper sealing. K
- Never allow lubricant (A/C system Oil Type S) to come in contact with styrene foam parts. Damage
may result.
REFRIGERANT CONNECTION L
A new type refrigerant connection has been introduced to all refrigerant lines except the following location.
• Expansion valve to evaporator
• Refrigerant pressure sensor to condenser & liquid tank assembly M
WARNING:
Check that all refrigerant is discharged into the recycling equipment and the pressure in the system is
less than atmospheric pressure. Then gradually loosen the discharge side hose fitting and remove it. N
CAUTION:
Observe the following when replacing or cleaning refrigerant cycle components.
• Store it in the same way at it is when mounted on the car when the compressor is removed. Failure
to do so will cause lubricant to enter the low-pressure chamber. O
• Use always a torque wrench and a back-up wrench when connecting tubes.
• Plug immediately all openings to prevent entry of dust and moisture after disconnecting tubes.
• Connect the pipes at the final stage of the operation when installing an air conditioner in the vehicle. P
Never remove the seal caps of pipes and other components until just before required for connection.
• Allow components stored in cool areas to warm to working area temperature before removing seal
caps. This prevents condensation from forming inside A/C components.
• Remove thoroughly moisture from the refrigeration system before charging the refrigerant.
• Replace always used O-rings.
• Apply lubricant to circle of the O-rings shown in illustration when connecting tube. Be careful not to
apply lubricant to threaded portion.

Revision: 2015 March HA-7 D23


PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION > [YD25DDTi]

Name : A/C system Oil Type S


• O-ring must be closely attached to the groove portion of tube.
• Be careful not to damage O-ring and tube when replacing the O-ring.
• Connect tube until a click can be heard. Then tighten the nut or bolt by hand. Check that the O-ring is
installed to tube correctly.
• Perform leakage test and make sure that there is no leakage from connections after connecting line.
Disconnect that line and replace the O-ring when the refrigerant leaking point is found. Then tighten
connections of seal seat to the specified torque.

RHA861F

COMPRESSOR
CAUTION:
• Plug all openings to prevent moisture and foreign matter from entering.
• Store it in the same way at it is when mounted on the car when the compressor is removed.
• Follow “MAINTENANCE OF LUBRICANT LEVEL IN COMPRESSOR” exactly when replacing or repair-
ing compressor. Refer to HA-26, "Description".
• Keep friction surfaces between clutch and pulley clean. Wipe it off by using a clean waste cloth
moistened with thinner if the surface is contaminated with lubricant.
• Turn the compressor shaft by hand more than five turns in both directions after compressor service
operation. This distributes equally lubricant inside the compressor. Let the engine idle and operate
the compressor for one hour after the compressor is installed.
• Apply voltage to the new one and check for normal operation after replacing the compressor magnet
clutch.
LEAK DETECTION DYE
CAUTION:
• The A/C system contains a fluorescent leak detection dye used for locating refrigerant leakages. An
ultraviolet (UV) lamp is required to illuminate the dye when inspecting for leakages.
• Wear always fluorescence enhancing UV safety goggles to protect eyes and enhance the visibility of
the fluorescent dye.
• The fluorescent dye leak detector is not a replacement for an electrical leak detector. The fluorescent
dye leak detector should be used in conjunction with an electrical leak detector to pin-point refriger-
ant leakages.
• Read and follow all manufacture’s operating instructions and precautions prior to performing the
work for the purpose of safety and customer’s satisfaction.
• A compressor shaft seal should not necessarily be repaired because of dye seepage. The compres-
sor shaft seal should only be repaired after confirming the leakage with an electrical leak detector.
• Remove always any remaining dye from the leakage area after repairs are completed to avoid a mis-
diagnosis during a future service.
• Never allow dye to come into contact with painted body panels or interior components. Clean imme-
diately with the approved dye cleaner if dye is spilled. Fluorescent dye left on a surface for an
extended period of time cannot be removed.
• Never spray the fluorescent dye cleaning agent on hot surfaces (engine exhaust manifold, etc.).

Revision: 2015 March HA-8 D23


PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION > [YD25DDTi]
• Never use more than one refrigerant dye bottle [1/4 ounce (7.4 cc)] per A/C system.
• Leak detection dyes for HFC-134a (R-134a) and CFC-12 (R-12) A/C systems are different. Never use A
HFC-134a (R-134a) leak detection dye in CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system, or CFC-12 (R-12) leak detection
dye in HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system, or A/C system damage may result.
• The fluorescent properties of the dye remains for three or more years unless a compressor malfunc-
B
tion occurs.
Service Equipment INFOID:0000000011671993

C
RECOVERY/RECYCLING RECHARGING EQUIPMENT
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for machine operation and machine maintenance. Never
introduce any refrigerant other than that specified into the machine. D
ELECTRICAL LEAK DETECTOR
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for tester operation and tester maintenance.
E
VACUUM PUMP
The lubricant contained inside the vacuum pump is not compatible
with the specified lubricant for HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C systems.
The vent side of the vacuum pump is exposed to atmospheric pres- F
sure. So the vacuum pump lubricant may migrate out of the pump
into the service hose. This is possible when the pump is switched
OFF after evacuation (vacuuming) and hose is connected to it. G
To prevent this migration, use a manual valve placed near the hose-
to-pump connection, as per the following.
• Vacuum pumps usually have a manual isolator valve as part of the
pump. Close this valve to isolate the service hose from the pump. H
• Use a hose equipped with a manual shut-off valve near the pump
end for pumps without an isolator. Close the valve to isolate the
hose from the pump. HA
• Disconnect the hose from the pump if the hose has an automatic
shut-off valve. As long as the hose is connected, the valve is open
and lubricating oil may migrate.
Some one-way valves open when vacuum is applied and close J
under no vacuum condition. Such valves may restrict the pump’s
ability to pull a deep vacuum and are not recommended.

RHA270DA L
MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
Be certain that the gauge face indicates HFC-134a or R-134a. Be
sure the gauge set has 1/2″-16 ACME threaded connections for ser- M
vice hoses. Confirm the set has been used only with refrigerant
HFC-134a (R-134a) and specified lubricants.

SERVICE HOSES

Revision: 2015 March HA-9 D23


PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION > [YD25DDTi]
Be certain that the service hoses display the markings described
(colored hose with black stripe). All hoses must equip positive shut-
off devices (either manual or automatic) near the end of the hoses
opposite to the manifold gauge.

RHA272D

SERVICE COUPLERS
Never attempt to connect HFC-134a (R-134a) service couplers to
the CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system. The HFC-134a (R-134a) couplers
do not properly connect to the CFC-12 (R-12) system. However, if an
improper connection is attempted, discharging and contamination
may occur.

REFRIGERANT CYCLE
Refrigerant Flow
The refrigerant from the compressor, flows the condenser with liquid tank assembly, the evaporator, and
returns to the compressor. The refrigerant evaporation in the evaporator is controlled by an expansion valve.
Freeze Protection
When evaporator fin temperature is low, compressor stops so that freeze of evaporator can be prevented.
Refer to the following.
• Auto air conditioning: HAC-24, "AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM : Compressor Control".
• Manual air conditioning (Full-elc): HAC-139, "Compressor Control".
• Manual air conditioning & cool (Semi-elc): HAC-227, "Compressor Control".
REFRIGERANT SYSTEM PROTECTION
Refrigerant Pressure Sensor
• The refrigerant system is protected against excessively high- or low-pressures by the refrigerant pressure
sensor, installed at the outlet pipe assembly. The refrigerant pressure sensor detects the pressure inside the
refrigerant line and sends the voltage signal to the ECM if the system pressure rises above, or falls below
the specifications.
• ECM turns the A/C relay to OFF and stops the compressor when the high-pressure side detected by refriger-
ant pressure sensor is following conditions;
- Approximately 3,120 kPa (31.2 bar, 31.8 kg/cm2, 452 psi) or more (Engine speed is less than 1,500 rpm.)
- Approximately 2,740 kPa (27.4 bar, 27.9 kg/cm2, 397 psi) or more (Engine speed is 1,500 rpm or more.)
- Approximately 140 kPa (1.4 bar, 1.4 kg/cm2, 17 psi) or less
Pressure Relief Valve

Revision: 2015 March HA-18 D23


SYSTEM
< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION > [YD25DDTi]
The refrigerant system is also protected by a pressure relief valve, located in the rear head of the compressor.
The release port on the pressure relief valve automatically opens and releases refrigerant into the atmosphere A
when the pressure of refrigerant in the system increases to an unusual level [more than 3,800 kPa (38 bar,
38.8 kg/cm2, 551 psi)].

H
CAUTION:
Be careful of the following items so that inaccurate checks or misidentifications are avoided.
• Never allow refrigerant vapor, shop chemical vapors, cigarette smoke, or others around the vehicle.
• Always check refrigerant leakage in a low air flow environment so that refrigerant may not disperse HA
when leakage occurs.
1. Stop the engine.
2. Connect recovery/recycling/recharging equipment or manifold gauge set to A/C service valve. J
3. Check that A/C refrigerant pressure is 345 kPa (3.45 bar, 3.52 kg/cm2, 50 psi) or more when temperature
is 16°C (61°F) or more. When pressure is lower than the specified value, recycle refrigerant completely
and fill refrigerant to the specified level. K
NOTE:
Leakages may not be detected if A/C refrigerant pressure is 345 kPa (3.45 bar, 3.52 kg/cm2, 50 psi) or
less when temperature is less than 16°C (61°F). L
4. Clean area where refrigerant leakage check is performed, and check refrigerant leakage along all sur-
faces of pipe connections and A/C system components using electrical leak detector probe.
CAUTION: M
• Continue checking when a leakage is found. Always continue and complete checking along all
pipe connections and A/C system components for additional leakage.
• When a leakage is detected, clean leakage area using compressed air and check again.
• When checking leakage of cooling unit inside, always clean inside of drain hose so that the N
probe surface may not be exposed to water or dirt.
NOTE:
• Always check leakage starting from high-pressure side and continue to low-pressure side. O
• When checking leakage of cooling unit inside, operate blower fan motor for 15 minutes or more at the
maximum fan speed while the engine is stopped, and then insert electrical leak detector probe into drain
hose and hold for 10 minutes or more.
• When disconnecting shut-off valve that is connected to A/C service valve, always evacuate remaining P
refrigerant so that misidentification can be avoided.
5. Repair or replace parts where refrigerant leakage is detected. (Leakage is detected but leakage area is
unknown. GO TO 6.)
6. Start the engine and set A/C control in the following conditions.
• A/C switch ON
• Air flow: VENT (Ventilation)

Precautions For Refrigerant System Service INFOID:0000000010585717

GENERAL REFRIGERANT PRECAUTION


WARNING:

Revision: 2015 March HA-65 D23


PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION > [QR25DE]
• Never breathe A/C refrigerant and lubricant vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and
throat. Use only approved recovery/recycling equipment to discharge HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant.
Ventilate work area before resuming service if accidental system discharge occurs. Additional health
and safety information may be obtained from refrigerant and lubricant manufacturers.
• Never release refrigerant into the air. Use approved recovery/recycling recharging equipment to cap-
ture the refrigerant each time an air conditioning system is discharged.
• Wear always eye and hand protection (goggles and gloves) when working with any refrigerant or air
conditioning system.
• Never store or heat refrigerant containers above 52°C (126°F).
• Never heat a refrigerant container with an open flame; Place the bottom of the container in a warm
pail of water if container warming is required.
• Never intentionally drop, puncture, or incinerate refrigerant containers.
• Keep refrigerant away from open flames: poisonous gas is produced if refrigerant burns.
• Refrigerant displaces oxygen, therefore be certain to work in well ventilated areas to prevent suffo-
cation.
• Never pressure test or leakage test HFC-134a (R-134a) service equipment and/or vehicle air condi-
tioning systems with compressed air during repair. Some mixtures of air and HFC-134a (R-134a)
have been shown to be combustible at elevated pressures. These mixtures, if ignited, may cause
injury or property damage. Additional health and safety information may be obtained from refriger-
ant manufacturers.
WORKING WITH HFC-134a (R-134a)
CAUTION:
• CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant are not compatible. These regrigerants
must never be mixed, even in the smallest amounts. Compressor malfunction is likely occur if the
refrigerants are mixed.
• Use only specified lubricant for the HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system and HFC-134a (R-134a) compo-
nents. Compressor malfunction is likely to occur if lubricant other than that specified is used.
• The specified HFC-134a (R-134a) lubricant rapidly absorbs moisture from the atmosphere. The fol-
lowing handling precautions must be observed:
- Cap (seal) immediately the component to minimize the entry of moisture from the atmosphere when
removing refrigerant components from a vehicle.
- Never remove the caps (unseal) until just before connecting the components when installing refrig-
erant components to a vehicle. Connect all refrigerant loop components as quickly as possible to
minimize the entry of moisture into system.
- Use only the specified lubricant from a sealed container. Reseal immediately containers of lubricant.
Lubricant becomes moisture saturated and should not be used without proper sealing.
- Never allow lubricant (A/C system Oil Type S) to come in contact with styrene foam parts. Damage
may result.
REFRIGERANT CONNECTION
A new type refrigerant connection has been introduced to all refrigerant lines except the following location.
• Expansion valve to evaporator
• Refrigerant pressure sensor to condenser & liquid tank assembly
WARNING:
Check that all refrigerant is discharged into the recycling equipment and the pressure in the system is
less than atmospheric pressure. Then gradually loosen the discharge side hose fitting and remove it.
CAUTION:
Observe the following when replacing or cleaning refrigerant cycle components.
• Store it in the same way at it is when mounted on the car when the compressor is removed. Failure
to do so will cause lubricant to enter the low-pressure chamber.
• Use always a torque wrench and a back-up wrench when connecting tubes.
• Plug immediately all openings to prevent entry of dust and moisture after disconnecting tubes.
• Connect the pipes at the final stage of the operation when installing an air conditioner in the vehicle.
Never remove the seal caps of pipes and other components until just before required for connection.
• Allow components stored in cool areas to warm to working area temperature before removing seal
caps. This prevents condensation from forming inside A/C components.
• Remove thoroughly moisture from the refrigeration system before charging the refrigerant.
• Replace always used O-rings.
• Apply lubricant to circle of the O-rings shown in illustration when connecting tube. Be careful not to
apply lubricant to threaded portion.

Revision: 2015 March HA-66 D23


PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION > [QR25DE]

Name : A/C system Oil Type S A


• O-ring must be closely attached to the groove portion of tube.
• Be careful not to damage O-ring and tube when replacing the O-ring.
• Connect tube until a click can be heard. Then tighten the nut or bolt by hand. Check that the O-ring is B
installed to tube correctly.
• Perform leakage test and make sure that there is no leakage from connections after connecting line.
Disconnect that line and replace the O-ring when the refrigerant leaking point is found. Then tighten
C
connections of seal seat to the specified torque.

H
RHA861F

COMPRESSOR HA
CAUTION:
• Plug all openings to prevent moisture and foreign matter from entering.
• Store it in the same way at it is when mounted on the car when the compressor is removed.
• Follow “MAINTENANCE OF LUBRICANT LEVEL IN COMPRESSOR” exactly when replacing or repair- J
ing compressor. Refer to HA-83, "Description".
• Keep friction surfaces between clutch and pulley clean. Wipe it off by using a clean waste cloth
moistened with thinner if the surface is contaminated with lubricant. K
• Turn the compressor shaft by hand more than five turns in both directions after compressor service
operation. This distributes equally lubricant inside the compressor. Let the engine idle and operate
the compressor for one hour after the compressor is installed.
• Apply voltage to the new one and check for normal operation after replacing the compressor magnet L
clutch.
LEAK DETECTION DYE M
CAUTION:
• The A/C system contains a fluorescent leak detection dye used for locating refrigerant leakages. An
ultraviolet (UV) lamp is required to illuminate the dye when inspecting for leakages.
• Wear always fluorescence enhancing UV safety goggles to protect eyes and enhance the visibility of N
the fluorescent dye.
• The fluorescent dye leak detector is not a replacement for an electrical leak detector. The fluorescent
dye leak detector should be used in conjunction with an electrical leak detector to pin-point refriger- O
ant leakages.
• Read and follow all manufacture’s operating instructions and precautions prior to performing the
work for the purpose of safety and customer’s satisfaction.
• A compressor shaft seal should not necessarily be repaired because of dye seepage. The compres- P
sor shaft seal should only be repaired after confirming the leakage with an electrical leak detector.
• Remove always any remaining dye from the leakage area after repairs are completed to avoid a mis-
diagnosis during a future service.
• Never allow dye to come into contact with painted body panels or interior components. Clean imme-
diately with the approved dye cleaner if dye is spilled. Fluorescent dye left on a surface for an
extended period of time cannot be removed.
• Never spray the fluorescent dye cleaning agent on hot surfaces (engine exhaust manifold, etc.).

Revision: 2015 March HA-67 D23


PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION > [QR25DE]
• Never use more than one refrigerant dye bottle [1/4 ounce (7.4 cc)] per A/C system.
• Leak detection dyes for HFC-134a (R-134a) and CFC-12 (R-12) A/C systems are different. Never use
HFC-134a (R-134a) leak detection dye in CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system, or CFC-12 (R-12) leak detection
dye in HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system, or A/C system damage may result.
• The fluorescent properties of the dye remains for three or more years unless a compressor malfunc-
tion occurs.
Service Equipment INFOID:0000000010585718

RECOVERY/RECYCLING RECHARGING EQUIPMENT


Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for machine operation and machine maintenance. Never
introduce any refrigerant other than that specified into the machine.
ELECTRICAL LEAK DETECTOR
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for tester operation and tester maintenance.
VACUUM PUMP
The lubricant contained inside the vacuum pump is not compatible
with the specified lubricant for HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C systems.
The vent side of the vacuum pump is exposed to atmospheric pres-
sure. So the vacuum pump lubricant may migrate out of the pump
into the service hose. This is possible when the pump is switched
OFF after evacuation (vacuuming) and hose is connected to it.
To prevent this migration, use a manual valve placed near the hose-
to-pump connection, as per the following.
• Vacuum pumps usually have a manual isolator valve as part of the
pump. Close this valve to isolate the service hose from the pump.
• Use a hose equipped with a manual shut-off valve near the pump
end for pumps without an isolator. Close the valve to isolate the
hose from the pump.
• Disconnect the hose from the pump if the hose has an automatic
shut-off valve. As long as the hose is connected, the valve is open
and lubricating oil may migrate.
Some one-way valves open when vacuum is applied and close
under no vacuum condition. Such valves may restrict the pump’s
ability to pull a deep vacuum and are not recommended.

RHA270DA

MANIFOLD GAUGE SET


Be certain that the gauge face indicates HFC-134a or R-134a. Be
sure the gauge set has 1/2″-16 ACME threaded connections for ser-
vice hoses. Confirm the set has been used only with refrigerant
HFC-134a (R-134a) and specified lubricants.

REFRIGERANT CYCLE
Refrigerant Flow K
The refrigerant from the compressor, flows the condenser with liquid tank assembly, the evaporator, and
returns to the compressor. The refrigerant evaporation in the evaporator is controlled by an expansion valve.
Freeze Protection L
When evaporator fin temperature is low, compressor stops so that freeze of evaporator can be prevented.
Refer to the following.
• Manual air conditioning (Full-elc): HAC-139, "Compressor Control". M
• Manual air conditioning & cool (Semi-elc): HAC-227, "Compressor Control".
REFRIGERANT SYSTEM PROTECTION
N
Refrigerant Pressure Sensor
• The refrigerant system is protected against excessively high- or low-pressures by the refrigerant pressure
sensor, installed at the outlet pipe assembly. The refrigerant pressure sensor detects the pressure inside the
refrigerant line and sends the voltage signal to the ECM if the system pressure rises above, or falls below O
the specifications.
• ECM turns the A/C relay to OFF and stops the compressor when the high-pressure side detected by refriger-
ant pressure sensor is following conditions; P
- Approximately 3,120 kPa (31.2 bar, 31.8 kg/cm2, 452 psi) or more (Engine speed is less than 1,500 rpm.)
- Approximately 2,740 kPa (27.4 bar, 27.9 kg/cm2, 397 psi) or more (Engine speed is 1,500 rpm or more.)
- Approximately 140 kPa (1.4 bar, 1.4 kg/cm2, 17 psi) or less
Pressure Relief Valve
The refrigerant system is also protected by a pressure relief valve, located in the rear head of the compressor.
The release port on the pressure relief valve automatically opens and releases refrigerant into the atmosphere

CHECK REFRIGERANT LEAKAGE USING ELECTRICAL LEAK DETECTOR
WARNING:
Never check refrigerant leakage while the engine is running.
CAUTION:
Be careful of the following items so that inaccurate checks or misidentifications are avoided.
• Never allow refrigerant vapor, shop chemical vapors, cigarette smoke, or others around the vehicle.
• Always check refrigerant leakage in a low air flow environment so that refrigerant may not disperse
when leakage occurs.
1. Stop the engine.
2. Connect recovery/recycling/recharging equipment or manifold gauge set to A/C service valve.
3. Check that A/C refrigerant pressure is 345 kPa (3.45 bar, 3.52 kg/cm2, 50 psi) or more when temperature
is 16°C (61°F) or more. When pressure is lower than the specified value, recycle refrigerant completely
and fill refrigerant to the specified level.
NOTE:
Leakages may not be detected if A/C refrigerant pressure is 345 kPa (3.45 bar, 3.52 kg/cm2, 50 psi) or
less when temperature is less than 16°C (61°F).
4. Clean area where refrigerant leakage check is performed, and check refrigerant leakage along all sur-
faces of pipe connections and A/C system components using electrical leak detector probe.
CAUTION:
• Continue checking when a leakage is found. Always continue and complete checking along all
pipe connections and A/C system components for additional leakage.
• When a leakage is detected, clean leakage area using compressed air and check again.
• When checking leakage of cooling unit inside, always clean inside of drain hose so that the
probe surface may not be exposed to water or dirt.
NOTE:
• Always check leakage starting from high-pressure side and continue to low-pressure side.
• When checking leakage of cooling unit inside, operate blower fan motor for 15 minutes or more at the
maximum fan speed while the engine is stopped, and then insert electrical leak detector probe into drain
hose and hold for 10 minutes or more.
• When disconnecting shut-off valve that is connected to A/C service valve, always evacuate remaining
refrigerant so that misidentification can be avoided.
5. Repair or replace parts where refrigerant leakage is detected. (Leakage is detected but leakage area is
unknown. GO TO 6.)

Precautions For Refrigerant System Service INFOID:0000000011991377

GENERAL REFRIGERANT PRECAUTION


WARNING:

Revision: 2015 March HA-116 D23


PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION > [YS23DDT/YS23DDTT]
• Never breathe A/C refrigerant and lubricant vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and
throat. Use only approved recovery/recycling equipment to discharge HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant. A
Ventilate work area before resuming service if accidental system discharge occurs. Additional health
and safety information may be obtained from refrigerant and lubricant manufacturers.
• Never release refrigerant into the air. Use approved recovery/recycling recharging equipment to cap-
B
ture the refrigerant each time an air conditioning system is discharged.
• Wear always eye and hand protection (goggles and gloves) when working with any refrigerant or air
conditioning system.
• Never store or heat refrigerant containers above 52°C (126°F). C
• Never heat a refrigerant container with an open flame; Place the bottom of the container in a warm
pail of water if container warming is required.
• Never intentionally drop, puncture, or incinerate refrigerant containers. D
• Keep refrigerant away from open flames: poisonous gas is produced if refrigerant burns.
• Refrigerant displaces oxygen, therefore be certain to work in well ventilated areas to prevent suffo-
cation.
• Never pressure test or leakage test HFC-134a (R-134a) service equipment and/or vehicle air condi- E
tioning systems with compressed air during repair. Some mixtures of air and HFC-134a (R-134a)
have been shown to be combustible at elevated pressures. These mixtures, if ignited, may cause
injury or property damage. Additional health and safety information may be obtained from refriger- F
ant manufacturers.
WORKING WITH HFC-134a (R-134a)
CAUTION: G
• CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant are not compatible. These regrigerants
must never be mixed, even in the smallest amounts. Compressor malfunction is likely occur if the
refrigerants are mixed.
H
• Use only specified lubricant for the HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system and HFC-134a (R-134a) compo-
nents. Compressor malfunction is likely to occur if lubricant other than that specified is used.
• The specified HFC-134a (R-134a) lubricant rapidly absorbs moisture from the atmosphere. The fol-
lowing handling precautions must be observed: HA
- Cap (seal) immediately the component to minimize the entry of moisture from the atmosphere when
removing refrigerant components from a vehicle.
- Never remove the caps (unseal) until just before connecting the components when installing refrig- J
erant components to a vehicle. Connect all refrigerant loop components as quickly as possible to
minimize the entry of moisture into system.
- Use only the specified lubricant from a sealed container. Reseal immediately containers of lubricant.
Lubricant becomes moisture saturated and should not be used without proper sealing. K
- Never allow lubricant (A/C system Oil Type S) to come in contact with styrene foam parts. Damage
may result.
REFRIGERANT CONNECTION L
A new type refrigerant connection has been introduced to all refrigerant lines except the following location.
• Expansion valve to evaporator
• Refrigerant pressure sensor to condenser & liquid tank assembly M
WARNING:
Check that all refrigerant is discharged into the recycling equipment and the pressure in the system is
less than atmospheric pressure. Then gradually loosen the discharge side hose fitting and remove it. N
CAUTION:
Observe the following when replacing or cleaning refrigerant cycle components.
• Store it in the same way at it is when mounted on the car when the compressor is removed. Failure
to do so will cause lubricant to enter the low-pressure chamber. O
• Use always a torque wrench and a back-up wrench when connecting tubes.
• Plug immediately all openings to prevent entry of dust and moisture after disconnecting tubes.
• Connect the pipes at the final stage of the operation when installing an air conditioner in the vehicle. P
Never remove the seal caps of pipes and other components until just before required for connection.
• Allow components stored in cool areas to warm to working area temperature before removing seal
caps. This prevents condensation from forming inside A/C components.
• Remove thoroughly moisture from the refrigeration system before charging the refrigerant.
• Replace always used O-rings.
• Apply lubricant to circle of the O-rings shown in illustration when connecting tube. Be careful not to
apply lubricant to threaded portion.

Revision: 2015 March HA-117 D23


PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION > [YS23DDT/YS23DDTT]

Name : A/C system Oil Type S


• O-ring must be closely attached to the groove portion of tube.
• Be careful not to damage O-ring and tube when replacing the O-ring.
• Connect tube until a click can be heard. Then tighten the nut or bolt by hand. Check that the O-ring is
installed to tube correctly.
• Perform leakage test and make sure that there is no leakage from connections after connecting line.
Disconnect that line and replace the O-ring when the refrigerant leaking point is found. Then tighten
connections of seal seat to the specified torque.

RHA861F

COMPRESSOR
CAUTION:
• Plug all openings to prevent moisture and foreign matter from entering.
• Store it in the same way at it is when mounted on the car when the compressor is removed.
• Follow “MAINTENANCE OF LUBRICANT LEVEL IN COMPRESSOR” exactly when replacing or repair-
ing compressor. Refer to HA-134, "Description".
• Keep friction surfaces between clutch and pulley clean. Wipe it off by using a clean waste cloth
moistened with thinner if the surface is contaminated with lubricant.
• Turn the compressor shaft by hand more than five turns in both directions after compressor service
operation. This distributes equally lubricant inside the compressor. Let the engine idle and operate
the compressor for one hour after the compressor is installed.
• Apply voltage to the new one and check for normal operation after replacing the compressor magnet
clutch.
LEAK DETECTION DYE
CAUTION:
• The A/C system contains a fluorescent leak detection dye used for locating refrigerant leakages. An
ultraviolet (UV) lamp is required to illuminate the dye when inspecting for leakages.
• Wear always fluorescence enhancing UV safety goggles to protect eyes and enhance the visibility of
the fluorescent dye.
• The fluorescent dye leak detector is not a replacement for an electrical leak detector. The fluorescent
dye leak detector should be used in conjunction with an electrical leak detector to pin-point refriger-
ant leakages.
• Read and follow all manufacture’s operating instructions and precautions prior to performing the
work for the purpose of safety and customer’s satisfaction.
• A compressor shaft seal should not necessarily be repaired because of dye seepage. The compres-
sor shaft seal should only be repaired after confirming the leakage with an electrical leak detector.
• Remove always any remaining dye from the leakage area after repairs are completed to avoid a mis-
diagnosis during a future service.
• Never allow dye to come into contact with painted body panels or interior components. Clean imme-
diately with the approved dye cleaner if dye is spilled. Fluorescent dye left on a surface for an
extended period of time cannot be removed.
• Never spray the fluorescent dye cleaning agent on hot surfaces (engine exhaust manifold, etc.).

Revision: 2015 March HA-118 D23


PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION > [YS23DDT/YS23DDTT]
• Never use more than one refrigerant dye bottle [1/4 ounce (7.4 cc)] per A/C system.
• Leak detection dyes for HFC-134a (R-134a) and CFC-12 (R-12) A/C systems are different. Never use A
HFC-134a (R-134a) leak detection dye in CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system, or CFC-12 (R-12) leak detection
dye in HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system, or A/C system damage may result.
• The fluorescent properties of the dye remains for three or more years unless a compressor malfunc-
B
tion occurs.
Service Equipment INFOID:0000000011991378

C
RECOVERY/RECYCLING RECHARGING EQUIPMENT
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for machine operation and machine maintenance. Never
introduce any refrigerant other than that specified into the machine. D
ELECTRICAL LEAK DETECTOR
Be certain to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for tester operation and tester maintenance.
E
VACUUM PUMP
The lubricant contained inside the vacuum pump is not compatible
with the specified lubricant for HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C systems.
The vent side of the vacuum pump is exposed to atmospheric pres- F
sure. So the vacuum pump lubricant may migrate out of the pump
into the service hose. This is possible when the pump is switched
OFF after evacuation (vacuuming) and hose is connected to it. G
To prevent this migration, use a manual valve placed near the hose-
to-pump connection, as per the following.
• Vacuum pumps usually have a manual isolator valve as part of the
pump. Close this valve to isolate the service hose from the pump. H
• Use a hose equipped with a manual shut-off valve near the pump
end for pumps without an isolator. Close the valve to isolate the
hose from the pump. HA
• Disconnect the hose from the pump if the hose has an automatic
shut-off valve. As long as the hose is connected, the valve is open
and lubricating oil may migrate.
Some one-way valves open when vacuum is applied and close J
under no vacuum condition. Such valves may restrict the pump’s
ability to pull a deep vacuum and are not recommended.

RHA270DA L
MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
Be certain that the gauge face indicates HFC-134a or R-134a. Be
sure the gauge set has 1/2″-16 ACME threaded connections for ser- M
vice hoses. Confirm the set has been used only with refrigerant
HFC-134a (R-134a) and specified lubricants.

REFRIGERANT CYCLE
Refrigerant Flow
The refrigerant from the compressor, flows the condenser with liquid tank assembly, the evaporator, and
returns to the compressor. The refrigerant evaporation in the evaporator is controlled by an expansion valve.
Freeze Protection
When evaporator fin temperature is low, compressor stops so that freeze of evaporator can be prevented.
Refer to the following.
• Automatic air conditioning: HAC-24, "AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM : Compressor Control".
• Manual air conditioning (Full-elc): HAC-139, "Compressor Control".
• Manual air conditioning & cool (Semi-elc): HAC-227, "Compressor Control".
REFRIGERANT SYSTEM PROTECTION
Refrigerant Pressure Sensor
• The refrigerant system is protected against excessively high- or low-pressures by the refrigerant pressure
sensor, installed at the condenser pipe assembly. The refrigerant pressure sensor detects the pressure
inside the refrigerant line and sends the voltage signal to the ECM if the system pressure rises above, or
falls below the specifications.
• ECM turns the A/C relay to OFF and stops the compressor when the high-pressure side detected by refriger-
ant pressure sensor is following conditions;
- Approximately 3,120 kPa (31.2 bar, 31.8 kg/cm2, 452 psi) or more (Engine speed is less than 1,500 rpm.)
- Approximately 2,740 kPa (27.4 bar, 27.9 kg/cm2, 397 psi) or more (Engine speed is 1,500 rpm or more.)
- Approximately 140 kPa (1.4 bar, 1.4 kg/cm2, 17 psi) or less
Pressure Relief Valve

Revision: 2015 March HA-126 D23


SYSTEM
< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION > [YS23DDT/YS23DDTT]
The refrigerant system is also protected by a pressure relief valve, located in the rear head of the compressor.
The release port on the pressure relief valve automatically opens and releases refrigerant into the atmosphere A
when the pressure of refrigerant in the system increases to an unusual level [more than 3,800 kPa (38 bar,
38.8 kg/cm2, 551 psi)].

H
CAUTION:
Be careful of the following items so that inaccurate checks or misidentifications are avoided.
• Never allow refrigerant vapor, shop chemical vapors, cigarette smoke, or others around the vehicle.
• Always check refrigerant leakage in a low air flow environment so that refrigerant may not disperse HA
when leakage occurs.
1. Stop the engine.
2. Connect recovery/recycling/recharging equipment or manifold gauge set to A/C service valve. J
3. Check that A/C refrigerant pressure is 345 kPa (3.45 bar, 3.52 kg/cm2, 50 psi) or more when temperature
is 16°C (61°F) or more. When pressure is lower than the specified value, recycle refrigerant completely
and fill refrigerant to the specified level. K
NOTE:
Leakages may not be detected if A/C refrigerant pressure is 345 kPa (3.45 bar, 3.52 kg/cm2, 50 psi) or
less when temperature is less than 16°C (61°F). L
4. Clean area where refrigerant leakage check is performed, and check refrigerant leakage along all sur-
faces of pipe connections and A/C system components using electrical leak detector probe.
CAUTION: M
• Continue checking when a leakage is found. Always continue and complete checking along all
pipe connections and A/C system components for additional leakage.
• When a leakage is detected, clean leakage area using compressed air and check again.
• When checking leakage of cooling unit inside, always clean inside of drain hose so that the N
probe surface may not be exposed to water or dirt.
NOTE:
• Always check leakage starting from high-pressure side and continue to low-pressure side. O
• When checking leakage of cooling unit inside, operate blower fan motor for 15 minutes or more at the
maximum fan speed while the engine is stopped, and then insert electrical leak detector probe into drain
hose and hold for 10 minutes or more.
• When disconnecting shut-off valve that is connected to A/C service valve, always evacuate remaining P
refrigerant so that misidentification can be avoided.
5. Repair or replace parts where refrigerant leakage is detected. (Leakage is detected but leakage area is
unknown. GO TO 6.)
