General information
INFORMATION ON THE FLUID
A label in the engine compartment details the specifications of the refrigerant fluid (refer to the Air conditioning - new R134a refrigerant booklet ).
104112
For retrieval, vacuum extraction and refilling the

R134A gas, use only the high-pressure hose from the
filling station.
Note:
- Plugs must be fitted to the disconnected air conditioning hoses to prevent moisture from entering
the system.
- Do not remove the plugs from the replacement
parts until last.
- Check for leaks, with the engine running and the
air conditioning and blower at their maximum settings, during the five minutes following refilling.
- The instructions for adding oil ( (see 62A, Air conditioning) ) must be strictly adhered to when work

II - RECOVERING REFRIGERANT FLUID
62A
- turn the engine off,

- drain for the first time (note down the value),
Note:
- wait 15 minutes ,
- The air conditioning circuit is fitted with a single

refill valve, some filling equipment requires only
the use of the high pressure pipe ( refer to the
filling station instructions ).
- run the engine until the cooling fan assembly is triggered twice,
- drain for the second time (note down the value),
- start the draining cycles again if the relative pressure is above 0 bar ,
- Depending on the scenario, run the system for

a few minutes before recovering the coolant to
improve drainage.
- add together the values of the various draining

operations, the load is confirmed as being correct if
the amount of refrigerant is the specified load + 35
g or - 100 g .
IMPORTANT
Scenario C:
These procedures must be followed in order to
avoid:
- drain for the first time (note down the value),
- gas escaping when the circuit is opened,
- wait 2 hours ,
- damaging the environment by releasing gas into

the atmosphere when the circuit is opened or
during creation of a vacuum.
g or - 100 g .
There are three possible scenarios to consider when

recovering refrigerant or checking the refrigerant
load:
III - CREATION OF A VACUUM
- the engine and air conditioning work (Scenario A),
It is essential to create a sound vacuum before loading, otherwise the air conditioning will be faulty.
- the engine works but not the air conditioning (Scenario B),
There are two scenarios to consider:
- neither the engine nor the air conditioning work

(Scenario C).
- the vacuum should be created immediately after

draining (scenario A ),
Scenario A:
- the creation of a vacuum should be carried out after

a delay of several hours or days (scenario B).
- Operate the air conditioning until the cooling fan

assembly is triggered twice,
Scenario A:
- turn the engine off,
- the creation of a vacuum lasts 20 minutes .
- drain for the first time (note down the original value),
Scenario B:
- wait 15 minutes ,
- creating the vacuum takes 45 minutes to remove

any residual moisture.
- check that the relative pressure is no more than 0

bar ,
Test the sealing once the vacuum has been created

(some stations do this automatically).
IV - FILLING

g or - 100 g .
Top up the oil with the recommended type and quantity of oil, depending on the work carried out.
Refill the system.
Empty the pipes on the (filling station) .
Scenario B:

Safety advice
IMPORTANT
62A
IMPORTANT
- Repairing any faulty components of the air conditioning system is strictly prohibited.
The following must be worn when handling refrigerant fluid:
- All faulty components must be replaced.
gloves,
The correct routing of the pipes must be observed.
protective eyewear (with side shields where possible).
Ensure that the refrigerant piping is correctly fitted so

that it will not come into contact with metal parts in the
engine compartment.
- In the event of refrigerant fluid coming into contact

with the eyes, rinse thoroughly with clean water for
15 minutes .
- Keep eyewash available if possible.
IMPORTANT
- If refrigerant gets into your eyes, consult a doctor

immediately. Inform the doctor that the burns were
caused by refrigerant R134A .
Smoking is strictly prohibited in the vicinity of a

refrigerant fluid circuit.
- If the fluid comes into contact with other unprotected parts of the body (even though the safety instructions were followed), rinse thoroughly with
clean water for 15 minutes .
IMPORTANT
- Any work involving refrigerant fluid must be carried
out in a well-ventilated area.
- The refrigerant must not be stored in a well, a pit,
a hermetically sealed room, etc.
- Refrigerant fluids are colourless and odourless.
The specific gravity of refrigerant fluid is higher than
that of air and it falls to the ground. This results in a risk
of asphyxiation. Consequently, when working on the
system ensure that there are no pits, wells, ventilation
shafts, etc. any nearer than 5 m away, and start up the
gas extraction equipment.
At temperatures above 100C , caused by a hot spot
for example, the refrigerant fluid decomposes and produces a highly irritant gas.
IMPORTANT
It is forbidden to carry out welding or brazing on:
- components of the air conditioning system when
these are in place,
- the vehicle, due to the risk of overheating a component of the air conditioning system.
It is possible to place components in the drying oven
after painting or to carry out work near the system if the
temperature does not exceed 80C .

There are two types of device for detecting leaks:
II - TRACER DETECTORS
Leak detection by tracer involves adding a dye to the
refrigerant and locating the points where fluid is
being lost using an ultraviolet light.
- electronic sensors,
- tracer detectors.
IMPORTANT
Note:
Safety instructions must be followed when working on the air conditioning circuit (see 62A, Air
conditioning, Safety advice, page 62A-7) .
Use the electronic detector and then the tracer

detector to check for leaks.
I - ELECTRONIC DETECTORS
WARNING
The procedure described must be followed.
WARNING
Note:
Always refer to user instructions for the device

before carrying out any work.
This device is used to measure variations in the
quantity of refrigerant in the air: it emits an audible
signal depending on the extent of the variation.
The device must be initialised before the check is
carried out. To do this:
- immobilise the device,
- calibrate the device at one point in the compartment.
This point then acts as a scale for detecting rates of
contamination.
This device is highly sensitive: when a leak is detected, only follow the line of the circuit as closely as
possible to limit variations due to other gases.
This device only detects relatively substantial leaks.
WARNING
Make sure that the sensor at the end of the rod is
kept extremely clean and in good condition.
62A-10
This leak-detection procedure should only be

used as a last resor t for leaks that cannot be
found .
AIR CONDITIONING
62A
1 - Adding dye to the circuit
105944
105944
The refrigerant fluid leak-detection procedure is

based on the use of a dye available in the form of a
throwaway capsule (1) : leak traces are revealed
using an ultraviolet light (2) .
Fit the system for adding the dye to the low-pressure

valve, and using union (3) for vehicles fitted with a
single valve.
The dye remains in the air conditioning system.
Add the dye to the circuit.

Run the air conditioning for approximately 15 minutes .
It is possible to check the condition of the cold loop

using an ultraviolet light without adding a new capsule.
2 - Leak-detection procedure
If there is nothing to indicate that dye has been used
previously (label, etc.):
Carry out an initial check (with the engine stopped)

by sweeping the circuit with an ultraviolet light.
- place a cloth,
- release a small jet of refrigerant through the two
valves,
- shine the ultraviolet light inside the valves,
Note:
Use an adjustable mirror wherever access is difficult.
Carefully clean the outside of the refrigerant circuit.
- check for fluorescent traces.
Run the air conditioning until the leak can be detected (if no leak is detected, check the condition of the
evaporator).
WARNING
It is forbidden to introduce dye into the cold loop
if fluorescent traces appear.
WARNING
Add a measure of detection dye if there are no fluorescent traces and a label.
Affix a label.
Record the date on which the dye was added.
62A-11
After the dye has been used in the refrigerant

fluid, it is essential that the reason for using the
dye and the date of the operation are marked on
a label (provided with the dye capsule). The label
must be placed near the cold loop filling valves
(shock absorber turret) where it is visible.
