The prevention

The central air highway is under a high pressure. Before full removal of a coolant it is forbidden to disconnect any hoses and to remove central air units. Coolant removal should be carried out in car-care centre.

 – Check of a condition and a tension of a belt of the compressor;
 – Check of a condition of hoses and tubes (a highway on to disunite!);
 – Clearing of intercostal spaces of the condenser;
 – Check of refuelling of system by a coolant.

The conditioner should be included monthly approximately on 10 mines (especially in the winter).

The most widespread reason of unsatisfactory work of the conditioner is insufficient refuelling of a coolant. If appreciable rise in temperature of air from the conditioner check up completeness of refuelling of a coolant is observed.
