    8. Connecting to the Automotive A/C System Use the service hose (5) quick couplings to connect the hoses to the A/C system service ports, bearing in mind that BLUE must be connected to the low-pressure (suction) side and RED to high pressure (discharge).

  • Page 12: Recovery & Recycling Mode

    9. Recovery & Recycling Mode The purpose of the Recovery & Recycling mode is to recover refrigerant from the air conditioning system, which will condense, purify and store the liquid refrigerant in the unit cylinder ready for re-use. To initiate the Recovery mode, press the 'UP' key once, followed by 'START' on the console. Display shows (- - - -).
  • Page 13 If at the end of Recovery process a sufficient vacuum has been maintained, the unit will stop, the display (2) will indicate 'done' and the amount of refrigerant recovered will be displayed in (kg or lb) depending on the operator’s selection. Press 'STOP' on the console, the unit will display "busy"...

    13. Cylinder Air Purge Air is not good for A/C system because it is a noncondensable gas. It is possible to get inside the cylinder during the proces of recovery of contaminated a/c system (system which leaks or not properly evacuated). To check the cylinder for air contamination, a technician should read the pressure on the refrigerant in storage cylinder to see if it exceeds the maximum allowable pressure for a given ambient temperature.
