AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM GENERAL DESCRIPTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
NEW AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM WITH R134a
Refrigerant R12(CFC12), previously used in automobile air conditioning systems is believed to contribute towards the depletion the earths ozone layer. The ozone layer help to protect us against the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun. A newly developed refrigerant, R134a (HFC 134a), does not the destroy the ozone layer.
AN1-M
If even a small amount of the wrong oil is changed, it will result in clouding of the refrigerant. A large amount will cause the compressor to seize up.
AC-3
AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM GENERAL DESCRIPTION
3. USE OF PROPER O-RINGS AND SEALS O-rings and seals used for conventional R12 air conditioning systems cannot be used for R134a air conditioning systems. Always use genuine Toyota R134a system O-rings and seals for R134a air conditioning systems.
If O-rings and/or seals for R12 air conditioning systems are used by mistake in the connections of an R 134a air conditioning system, the O-ring and seals will foam and swell resulting in leakage of refrigerant.
4. TIGHTEN CONNECTING PARTS SECURELY Securely tighten the connecting parts to prevent leaking of refrigerant gas. Apply a few drops of compressor oil to O-ring fittings for easy tightening and to prevent leaking of refrigerant gas.
CAUTION: Apply only ND-OIL 9 compressor oil
Tighten the nuts using 2 wrenches to avoid twisting the tube. Tighten the O-ring fittings or the bolted type fittings to the specified torque. 5. INSERT PLUG IMMEDIATELY IN DISCONNECTED PARTS Insert a plug immediately in the disconnected parts to prevent the ingress of moisture and dust. 6. DO NOT REMOVE PLUG FROM NEW PARTS UNTIL IMMEDIATELY BEFORE INSTALLATION
7. WHEN DISCONNECTING THE PLUG, TAKE CARE SO THAT OIL WILL NOT AGAIN
AC-4
AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1. USE MANIFOLD GAUGES FOR R134a AIR CONDITIONING Always use R134a dedicated manifold gauges to prevent R12 and R12 compressor oil contaminating the R134a system.
2. USE R134a GAS LEAK DETECTOR Similarly, always use an R134a dedicated leak detector. The R12 leak detector is not sufficiently sensitive.
3. USE VACUUM PUMP ADAPTER By connecting a vacuum pump adapter, the vacuum pump can be used for both R134a and R12 air conditioning systems. The vacuum pump adaptor has an internal magnetic valve. When evacuation is completed and the vacuum pump switch is turned off, the magnetic valve opens allow. ing the introduction of atmospheric air into the manifold gauges to prevent the back flow of oil from the vacuum pump into the gauge hose.
CAUTION: Be sure to turn off the manifold gauge valve immediately after evacuating the system. Then you may switch off the vacuum pump. If this order is reversed, the line wilI be temporarily open to atmosphere.

3. BE CAREFUL THAT LIQUID REFRIGERANT DOES NOT GET IN YOUR EYES OR ON YOUR SKIN If liquid refrigerant gets in your eyes or on your skin: (a) Wash the area with lots of cool water.
CAUTION: Do not rub your eyes or skin.
(b) Apply clean petroleum jelly to the skin. (c) GO immediately to a physician or hospital for professional treatment.
CHARGING AND LEAK-CHECK METHODS Evacuate the refrigeration system according to the following procedures.
10 min.

AC-6
AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM GENERAL DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
Be sure to connect both the high and low pressure quick-connectors onto the A/C system when evacuating. If only one side is connected, the system would be open to atmosphere through the other connector, making it impossible to maintain vacuum. Be sure to turn off the manifold gauge valve immediately after evacuating the system. Then you may switch off the vacuum pump.
ELECTRICAL PARTS
Before removing and inspecting the electrical parts, set the ignition switch to the LOCK position and disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from battery.
CAUTION: Work must be started after 90 seconds from the time the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK position and the negative (-) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery.

INSPECT THERMISTOR RESISTANCE (a) Measure the resistance between terminals at 25 C (77 F).
Resistance: 1,500 W at 25C (77F)
(b) Place the thermistor in cold water. While varying the temperature of the water, measure the resistance at the connector and at the same time, measure the temperature of the water with a thermometer. (c) Compare the 2 readings on the chart. If the resistance valve is not as specified, replace the thermistor.
