General safety instructions

Read this operating manual carefully before starting up the
AirConServiceCentre for the first time.
Only use the device for its intended purpose.
Only use R-134a refrigerant. If other refrigerants are mixed in, this can
damage the AirConServiceCenter and the vehicle air conditioning
system.
Only use WAECO UV additive. If you use other UV additives, it could
cause damage to the AirConServiceCenter.
Wear personal safety equipment (safety goggles and protective gloves)
and avoid coming into contact with the refrigerant. Contact with the refrig-
erant draws out body heat and the affected areas can freeze.
Do not inhale refrigerant vapour. Although the vapour is non-toxic, it dis-
places the oxygen you need to breathe.
Do not make modifications to the AirConServiceCenter.
Each time you start up the device or top up the AirConServiceCenter, first
check whether the device and all the service hoses are undamaged and
that all valves are closed.
Do not start up the AirConServiceCenter if it is damaged.
Only use approved refrigerant bottles with safety valves to refill the
AirConServiceCenter.
Drain the service hoses before you undo the connections.
Do not operate the AirConServiceCenter in areas where there is a risk of
explosions (for example battery charging rooms or spraying booths).
Always use the main switch of the AirConServiceCenter to switch the
station on and off. Do not leave the device unattended when it is switched
on.
