Procedure:
1.
Confirm that both the 3-way valves are set to the open position.
2.
Connect the manifold gauge to the gas side (Low side) 3-way valves port.
Leave the valve on the manifold gauge closed.
Connect the manifold gauge to the service port.
3.
Open the valves (Low side) on the manifold gauge and discharge the refrigerant until the gauge
