    3.4 A UTOMATIC CYCLE Press the “Automatic” button The unit will perform the automatic recovery process, if refrigerant is present in the A/C system. It is not possible to deselect this function. If no refrigerant is present inside the A/C system, the unit will start directly the Vacuum process.
  • Page 21 IMPORTANT: If the unit inform the operator about the automatic procedure of flushing of the internal circuit, it must be realized before the connection of X-CROSS unit to the car! The operator can also select all the information, directly form the Car’s database. Reading this information about the selected car, the unit will directly set the correct quantity of refrigerant to charge in the A/C system.

    Using the unit X-CROSS VARIANT (Auxiliary functions) 4.1 P RESSURE TEST WITH NITROGEN OR ZOIDRO MIXTURE The unit gives the opportunity to the user to perform a pressure test of the A/C system by means of nitrogen or by means of the Azoidro mixture (95% N2 – 5% H2). The test is very important to be sure that the system is perfectly tight, before charging refrigerant.

  • Page 32: Replacing The Filter Drier

    The substitution of the vacuum pump oil is very important. The oil also needs to be changed whenever it becomes cloudy. Contaminated oil reduces vacuum pump performances and irreversibly damages its mechanical components. All draining and refilling operations must be performed when the pump is turned off To avoid reduction of the pump efficiency and to maintain its performances, use only K1L oil for maintenance.
  • Page 33 The unit is equipped with an automatic system of calculation, which allows to understand the saturation of the capacity of the filter, in function of the quantity of recovered refrigerant. Please follow the indication showed on the display. During the substitution it is necessary introduce the serial number of the new filter; if the user does not introduce the serial number, it is not possible go on with the procedure.
