Model

415

with code H06 (Air-conditioning system)

Model

415

with code HH9 (Air conditioner, automatic heater control)

 Danger !

Risk of explosion when using a forming gas with incorrect mixing ratio. Risk of suffocation due to inhalation of forming gas. Risk of injury due to bursting of high-pressure hoses.

Wear safety glasses and protective gloves. No smoking or open flames. Work in well-ventilated rooms only.

AS83.00-Z-0001-02A

 Danger !

Risk of fire due to ignition of R1234yf refrigerant on hot components. Risk of poisoning caused by inhaling overheated refrigerant vapors. Risk of injury to skin and eyes caused by contact with escaped R1234yf refrigerant and when working on pressurized parts. Risk of explosion due to formation of ignitable refrigerant/air mixtures

Never perform welding work on or near a closed air conditioning system. No smoking or open flames. Wear safety glasses and protective gloves. Work only in well ventilated rooms. Carry out repair work on the air conditioning system circuit only after the system has been evacuated.

AS83.00-Z-0007-01A

 Danger !

Risk of poisoning caused by inhaling overheated refrigerant vapors from an air conditioning system containing R134a. Risk of injury to skin and eyes caused by contact with liquid R134a refrigerant and when working on pressurized parts

Never perform welding work on or near a closed air conditioning system. No smoking or open flames. Wear safety glasses and protective gloves. Work only in well ventilated rooms. Carry out repair work on the air conditioning system circuit only after the system has been evacuated.

Check

1

Evacuate air conditioning system

Model 415 except code HX1 (R-1234yf refrigerant)

AR83.30-S-1760C

Model 415 with code HX1 (R-1234yf refrigerant)

2

Fill air conditioning with forming gas and check pressure drop



000 588 19 21 00 Leak tester

WS83.00-P-0035B


Make sure ambient temperatures remain constant.
Otherwise, temperature changes during the pressure test (e.g. caused by a change in the weather or cooling down of the engine compartment over night) may cause pressure fluctuations.

 Do not fill air conditioning system with forming gas unless engine is cold.

 When connecting and when operating the leak tester, the complete work procedure must be conducted in accordance with the operator's manual as issued by the manufacturer.
