PRECAUTIONS — Refrigerant handling
HA-17prose procedureWARNING
Always wear eye protection when working around the system.
Always be careful that refrigerant does not come in contact with your skin.
Keep refrigerant containers stored below 40°C (104°F) and never drop from high places.
Work in well-ventilated area because refrigerant gas evaporates quickly and breathing may become difficult due to the lack of oxygen.
Keep refrigerant away from open flames because poisonous gas will be produced if it burns.
Do not increase can temperature beyond 40°C (104°F) in charging.
Do not heat refrigerant can with an open flame. There is a danger that can will explode.
CAUTION
Do not use steam to clean surface of condenser or evaporator. Be sure to use cold water or compressed air.
Compressed air must never be used to clean a dirty line. Clean with refrigerant gas.
IMPORTANT
Do not use manifold gauge whose press point shape is different from that shown. Otherwise, insufficient evacuating may occur.
Do not over-tighten service valve cap.
Do not allow refrigerant to rush out. Otherwise, compressor oil will be discharged along with refrigerant.
