4 Important Notice Please Read For Maximum System Performance, Vintage Air Recommends the Following: NOTE: Vintage Air systems are designed to operate with R34a refrigerant only. Use of any other refrigerant could damage your A/C system and/or vehicle, and possibly cause a fire, in addition to potentially voiding the warranties of the A/C system and its components. Refrigerant Capacities: Vintage Air System:.8 lbs. ( lb., 2 oz.) of R34a, charged by weight with a quality charging station or scale. NOTE: Use of the proper type and amount of refrigerant is critical to system operation and performance. Other Systems: Consult manufacturer s guidelines. Lubricant Capacities: New Vintage Air-supplied Sanden Compressor: No additional oil needed (Compressor is shipped with proper oil charge). All Other Compressors: Consult manufacturer (Some compressors are shipped dry and will need oil added). Safety Switches Your Vintage Air system is equipped with a binary pressure safety switch. A binary switch disengages the compressor clutch in cases of extreme low pressure conditions (Refrigerant Loss) or excessively high head pressure (406 PSI) to prevent compressor damage or hose rupture. A trinary switch combines Hi/Lo pressure protection with an electric fan operation signal at 254 PSI, and should be substituted for use with electric fans. Compressor safety switches are extremely important since an A/C system relies on refrigerant to circulate lubricant. Service Info: Protect Your Investment: Prior to assembly, it is critical that the compressor, evaporator, A/C hoses and fittings, hardlines, condenser and receiver/drier remained capped. Removing caps prior to assembly will allow moisture, insects and debris into the components, possibly leading to reduced performance and/or premature failure of your A/C system. This is especially important with the receiver/drier. Additionally, when caps are removed for assembly, BE CAREFUL! Some components are shipped under pressure with dry nitrogen. Evacuate the System for Minutes: Ensure that system components (Drier, compressor, evaporator and condenser) are at a temperature of at least 85 F. On a cool day, the components can be heated with a heat gun or by running the engine with the heater on before evacuating. Leak check and charge to specifications. Bolts Passing Through Cowl and/or Firewall: To ensure a watertight seal between the passenger compartment and the vehicle exterior, for all bolts passing through the cowl and/or firewall, Vintage Air recommends coating the threads with silicone prior to installation. Heater Hose (Not Included With This Kit): Heater hose may be purchased from Vintage Air (Part# 3800-VUD) or your local parts retailer. Routing and required length will vary based on installer preference REV B 02/0/7, PG 4 OF 4
