INSTALLATION SERVICE POINT

A COMPRESSOR 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 Cubic.cm (X fl.oz.)] of oil within the removed compressor.
2. Wipe away (from the new compressor) the amount of oil calculated according to the following formula, and then install the new compressor.

New compressor oil amount 160 Cubic.cm - X Cubic.cm = Y Cubic.cm (5.4 fl.oz. - X fl.oz. = Y fl.oz.)

NOTE:
1. Y Cubic.cm (Y fl.oz.) indicates the amount of oil in the refrigerant line, the condenser, the cooling unit, etc.
2. If any other air conditioning part is replaced simultaneously with the compressor, remove the oil from the new compressor, taking the specified amount of oil for the part into consideration.
