Inspect Refrigerant Pressure

Note
• Perform the procedure with the manifold gauge connected. (See MANIFOLD GAUGE SET CONNECTION)
• Start the engine and operate at an engine speed of 1,500 rpm.
• Perform the procedure while the vehicle is not exposed to direct sunlight.

1.Prepare the vehicle as follows.

― A/C switch: ON
― Air intake mode: REC
― Airflow mode: Vent
― Airflow temperature setting: MAX COLD
― Airflow volume setting: Maximum
― Hood: Open
― All doors and liftgate: Closed
― All door glass: Fully closed
― Active air shutter (with active air shutter): Open

2.Wait for 8 min after the engine is started.

3.Record the pressure indicated on the manifold gauge and ambient temperature for 2 min.

4.Verify that the refrigerant pressure on the high pressure side and low pressure side is within the range of the shaded area shown in the figure.

High pressure side

azzezw00000368

1
Refrigerant pressure (MPa{kgf/cm2, psi})
2
Ambient temperature (°C{°F})

Low pressure side

azzezw00000369

1
Refrigerant pressure (MPa{kgf/cm2, psi})
2
Ambient temperature (°C{°F})

• If it cannot be verified, inspect the refrigerant system according to the symptom troubleshooting procedure. (Refer to [SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING CHART [FULL-AUTO AIR CONDITIONER]] in the troubleshooting manual)
