    When refrigerant R410A is used, the composition will differ depending on whether it is in gaseous or liquid phase, and the basic performance of the air conditioner will be degraded if it is charged while the refrigerant is in gaseous state. Thus, always charge the refrigerant while it is in liquid phase.

  • Page 55: Checklist Before Servicing

    11-2. Checklist before Servicing Use a clutch-type flare tool for R410A or the conventional flare tool. Note that sizes of the resultant flares differ between these two tools. Where a conventional flare tool is used, make sure to observe A Specification (amount of extrusion) by using the flare spacer.
