can then be extracted. The vaporising residual refrigerant triggers an
increase in pressure.

The air conditioning system is drained completely by the vacuum pump.

prepare the air conditioning system for the filling process. Any residual
refrigerant extracted which is still bonded in the refrigerant oil is col-
lected by the AirConServiceCenter and recycled.
