3. Systém nabíjení: Hold the refrigerant can upright or slightly inverted (refer to refrigerant can instructions) and gently shake it to facilitate refrigerant flow. Monitor the AC system's performance (e.g., vent temperature, compressor cycling).
4. Monitor Pressure (if using a gauge): If you have an inline pressure gauge (not included with this specific kit), monitor the low-side pressure to avoid overcharging. Consult your vehicle's service manual for correct pressure ranges.
5. Zavřete ventil: Once the desired amount of refrigerant has been added or the can is empty, turn the valve handle clockwise to close the can tap.

  • Check if the refrigerant can is empty.
• Netěsnosti v místech spojení:
  • Ensure all connections are hand-tight. Do not overtighten.
  • Check O-rings and seals for damage. Replace if necessary.
  • Confirm the low-side coupler is fully seated on the vehicle's service port.
• AC System Not Cooling After Recharge:
  • The system may have a larger leak that requires professional repair.
  • The system may be overcharged or undercharged.
