CAUTION
Risk of frostbite from escaping pressurised refrigerant
Risk of frostbite on skin and other parts of the body
– Put on protective gloves.
– Put on safety goggles.
– Extract/drain refrigerant and then immediately open up re‐
frigerant circuit.
– Extract/drain refrigerant again if more than 10 minutes
have passed since initial extraction and refrigerant circuit
has not been opened up. Renewed evaporation has cre‐
ated pressure in the refrigerant circuit.
– Unscrew refrigerant pressure and temperature sender 4 -
G828--4- while counterholding at refrigerant line using open-
end spanner.
Installing
Installation is carried out in reverse order; note the following:
– Install seals, making sure they are free of oil.
– Check that refrigerant lines are seated correctly and tight‐
en refrigerant pressure and temperature sender 4 -G828-;
counterhold using open-end spanner while doing so.
– Perform function “Opening electrically actuated valves in re‐
frigerant circuit for extracting, evacuating and charging” with
