REFRIGERANT RECOVERY

Avoid breathing air conditioning refrigerant or lubricant vapor. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and

throat. Also, due to environmental concerns, use service equipment certified to meet the requirements of

SAE J2210 (R-134a recycling equipment) when draining R-134a from the air conditioning system. If

accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work area before resuming service.

1. Connect an R-134a recovery/recycling/recharging device to the vehicle and follow the device

manufacturer's instructions.

Avoid breathing air conditioning refrigerant or lubricant vapor. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and

throat. Also, due to environmental concerns, use service equipment certified to meet the requirements of

SAE J2210 (R-134a recycling equipment) when draining R-134a from the air conditioning system. If

accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work area before resuming service.

Do not exceed the specification when charging the system with refrigerant. Doing so will decrease the

efficiency of the air conditioner or damage the refrigeration cycle parts.
