REMOVAL SERVICE POINTS

<<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 REMOVAL

If the A/C condenser outlet pipe must be removed individually, remove the clip securing the A/C compressor suction hose to the side member in order to create sufficient clearance.
