This equipment is intended for professional use only. The service technician should be familiar
with proper servicing of air conditioning systems as well as the dangers and use of refrigerants and
pressurized components before using the equipment.

WARNING

Always wear safety goggles when working with refrigerants. Contact with refrigerants can cause
injury.

Connecting hoses to the wrong ports may cause personal injury or may damage the equip-
ment.
Check the operating manual for your air conditioning system for the correct hookup.

Disconnect hoses with extreme caution! All hoses may contain liquid refrigerant under pressure.
Contact with refrigerant can cause injury. Wear proper, personal protective equipment, including safety
goggles. Point the disconnected end of a hose away from you and anyone who is nearby.

Use only with refrigerant type R-134a! Cross-contamination with other refrigerant types will cause
severe damage to the A/C system and to service tools and equipment. Do not mix refrigerant types
through a system or in the same container!

Avoid breathing A/C refrigerant and lubricant vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose
and throat.
To remove R-134a from the A/C system, use service equipment certified to meet the
requirements of SAE J2210 (R-134a recycling equipment). If accidental system discharge occurs,
ventilate work area before resuming service.

HFC-134a service equipment or vehicle A/C systems should not be pressure tested or leak
tested with compressed air.
Some mixtures of air/HFC-134a have been shown to be combustible at
elevated pressures. These mixtures are potentially dangerous and may result in fire or explosion
causing injury or property damage. Additional health and safety information may be obtained from
refrigerant and lubricant manufacturers.

Improper use or connections may cause electrical shock hazards. Read and follow these
instructions carefully and take all necessary precautions to avoid electrical shock hazards. Before
energizing circuits, be sure that all associated devices are properly grounded. Unplug the station from
the power source before removing the control box.
