Operating Instructions – Automatic

6. The display shows an overview of all the tests

that were selected. Press START / YES to
begin the automatic sequence.

7 . When the sequence is complete, the display

shows the amount of refrigerant that was
recovered and charged.

8. Close the high- and low-side coupler valves,

and remove the service hoses from the A/C
system. Press START / YES to clear hoses.

Operating Tips

• If the weight entered is more than the

refrigerant available in the internal tank, the
charge function will not start. The display
reads

INSUFFICIENT REFRIG.

PRESS ANY KEY TO EXIT

Refer to the Maintenance section of this manual

for instructions to Manually Fill the ISV.

If problems are encountered during the

automatic sequence, the unit will “beep” three
times and the control panel readout will pinpoint
the problem encountered. The sequence
remains paused until the user enters a decision
regarding how to proceed.

Before the unit begins evacuating the A/C

system during the automatic sequence, it
checks for any pressure in the system that
may damage the vacuum pump. If pressure is
detected, the unit displays

PRESSURE EXISTS

PRESS ANY KEY TO EXIT

Press any key to exit the automatic
sequence.

If a leak test was programmed, and a leak is

detected, the unit displays

LEAK TEST FAILED

PRESS STOP TO EXIT

PRESS START TO CONTINUE

Press STOP to exit the automatic sequence

and perform needed repairs. Press START to
continue the automatic sequence despite the
failed leak test.

To ensure an accurate leak test, it is

imperative that a thorough recovery and
evacuation of the system is performed.
During the recovery process, cold spots can
develop in the automotive system. Pockets
of refrigerant in desiccant and in system oil
will continue to vaporize as the A/C system
temperature equalizes toward ambient. As
this occurs, A/C system pressure increases,
which may be interpreted by the unit as a
leak. This varies somewhat with ambient
temperature conditions.
