Air Conditioning System

Since Refrigerant-134a (HFC-134a) is used in the air conditioning system in this vehicle, be sure to use manifold gauges, charging hoses and other air conditioning service tools for HFC-134a when checking the refrigerant system.

Conditions:
- Run the engine at Idling
- Air conditioning switch is "ON"
- Run the blower motor at "HIGH" position
- Temperature control lever set to "MAX COLD"
- Air source selector lever at "CIRC"
- Open the engine hood
- Close all the doors

Normal Pressure:
- At ambient temperature: approx. 25 - 30 °C (77 - 86 °F).
- At low-pressure side: approx. 147.1 - 294.2 kpa (21.3 - 42.7 psi).
- At high-pressure side: approx. 1372.9 - 1863.3 kpa (199.1 - 270.2 psi).
