REMOVAL SERVICE POINT

<<A>> HOSE, PIPE AND EXPANSION VALVE REMOVAL
caution Use the plug which is not breathable because A/C compressor oil or receiver have high hygroscopicity.
Plug the nipple of condenser, compressor, and expansion valve to prevent the entry of dust and dirt.

<<B>> CLIP SECURING A/C CONDENSER SUCTION HOSE OR PIPE TO SIDEMEMBER REMOVAL
If the A/C condenser outlet pipe must be removed individually, remove the clip securing the A/C compressor suction hose or pipe to the side member in order to create sufficient clearance.
