REMOVAL SERVICE POINTS

<<A>> A/C COMPRESSOR SUCTION HOSE/A/C COMPRESSOR DISCHARGE HOSE DISCONNECTION
caution Use the plug which is not breathable because A/C compressor oil or receiver have high hygroscopicity.
Plug the hose nipple removed to prevent the entry of dust and dirt.

<<B>> A/C COMPRESSOR AND CLUTCH ASSEMBLY REMOVAL
caution Be careful not to spill the A/C compressor oil and remove the A/C compressor.

Remove the rubber shield from the left wheel housing to remove the A/C compressor and clutch assembly.

INSTALLATION SERVICE POINT

>>A<< A/C COMPRESSOR AND CLUTCH ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION
If a new compressor is installed, first adjust the amount of oil according to the procedures described below, and then install the compressor.
1.Measure the amount X mL of oil within the removed compressor.
2.Drain (from the new compressor) the amount of oil calculated according to the following formula, and then install the new compressor.
New compressor oil amount = 120mL
120 mL - X mL = Y mL
note Y mL indicates the amount of oil in the refrigerant line, the condenser, the evaporator, etc.
