General Description

CAUTION: NEVER CHARGE THE A/C SYSTEM THROUGH THE HIGH PRESSURE SIDE OF THE SYSTEM. COMPONENT DAMAGE AND PERSONAL INJURY COULD RESULT.

NOTE: Under no circumstances should alcohol be used in the system in an attempt to remove moisture. Damage to the system components could occur.
