Workshop Manual 01.2025 ● Before connecting the filling system to the air conditioning system, ensure that all shut-off valves present are closed. ● Before the air conditioner service station is disconnected from the air conditioning system, make sure that the process is completed so that as little refrigerant as is technically feasible enters the atmosphere.
Workshop Manual 01.2025 Observe the five safety rules: 4. Earth and short-circuit Earthing and short-circuiting provides a last safety resort if the system is re-energised despite all the other measures. This step also prevents residual voltages from being discharged via your body if you touch the installation.
Workshop Manual 01.2025 Refrigerant and refrigerant oil Repair instructions for refrigerant Condition ● No refrigerant R134a may be filled into an air conditioning system for refrigerant R1234yf. ● An information sign is affixed to the thermal management unit that indicates the refrigerant used. Condition ●...
Workshop Manual 01.2025 ● Prevent container from falling over! Upright bottles should be prevented from falling, and bottles placed flat should be secured against rolling away. Condition ● Do not throw containers! On impact, the container could be deformed in shape so much that it could split. Refrigerant would vaporise very suddenly, thereby releasing very high pressures.
◆ The Volkswagen dealership must contact the nearest high-voltage service centre or importer as a matter of urgency. ◆ The Flexpole must be marked with the warning sign “Danger: High voltage”. Additional labels must be af- fixed if quarantine is required.

Distilled water must be used when mixing coolant concentrate, as the contents of tap water may vary by country and region. Only use coolant additives approved for the Flexpole ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue. The use of other coolant additives can significantly impair the anti-corrosion effect. The resulting damage could lead to loss of coolant and subsequent severe damage.
