IGNITION SWITCH EXPRESSIONS
The type of ignition switch used on this model differs according to the specifications of the vehicles. The expressions listed in the table below are used in this section.
| Expression | Ignition Switch (Position) | Engine Switch (Condition) |
|---|---|---|
| Ignition Switch off | LOCK | Off |
| Ignition Switch ACC | ACC | On (ACC) |
| Ignition Switch ON | ON | On (IG) |

ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION
BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET LIQUID REFRIGERANT IN EYES OR ON SKIN
If liquid refrigerant gets in eyes or on skin:
Wash the area with lots of cold water.
Do not rub eyes or skin.
Apply clean petroleum jelly to the skin.
Go immediately to a hospital or see a physician for professional treatment.
NEVER HEAT CONTAINER OR EXPOSE THE CONTAINER TO AN OPEN FLAME
BE CAREFUL NOT TO DROP CONTAINER OR APPLY PHYSICAL SHOCKS TO IT
DO NOT OPERATE COMPRESSOR WITHOUT ENOUGH REFRIGERANT IN REFRIGERANT SYSTEM
If there is not enough refrigerant in the air conditioning system, oil lubrication will be insufficient and the compressor may be damaged.
Necessary care should be taken to avoid this.
DO NOT OPEN HIGH PRESSURE MANIFOLD VALVE WHILE COMPRESSOR IS OPERATING
| *a | Wrong |
| *b | Okay |
Open and close only the low pressure valve.
If the high pressure valve is opened, refrigerant flows in the reverse direction causing the charging cylinder to rupture.
BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERCHARGE SYSTEM WITH REFRIGERANT
If the system is overcharged with refrigerant, it causes problems such as insufficient cooling, poor fuel economy, engine overheating, etc.
DO NOT OPERATE ENGINE AND COMPRESSOR WITH NO REFRIGERANT
Doing so may damage inside the compressor because the compressor parts always move regardless of whether the air conditioning system is turned on or off.
GENERAL PRECAUTION
While using the battery during inspection, do not bring the positive (+) and negative (-) tester probes too close to each other as a short circuit may occur.
