ADJUSTMENT

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

The refrigerant used in the air conditioning system is
HFC (Hydrofluorocarbon) R134a.

WARNING: R134a is a hazardous liquid
and when handled incorrectly can cause
serious injury. Suitable protective clothing

must be worn when carrying out servicing
operations on the air conditioning system.

WARNING: R134a is odourless and
colourless. Do not handle or discharge in
an enclosed area, or in any area where the

vapour or liquid can come in contact with naked
flame or hot metal. R134a is not flammable but
can form a highly toxic gas.

WARNING: Do not smoke or weld in areas
where R134a is in use. Inhalation of
concentrations of the vapour can cause

dizziness, disorientation. uncoordination,
narcosis, nausea or vomiting.

WARNING: Do not allow fluids other than
R134a or compressor lubricant to enter the
air conditioning system. Spontaneous

combustion may occur.

WARNING: R134a splashed on any part of
the body will cause immediate freezing of
that area. Also refrigerant cylinders and

replenishment trolleys when discharging will
freeze skin to them if contact is made.

WARNING: The refrigerant used in an air
conditioning system must be reclaimed in
accordance with the recommendations

given with a Refrigerant Recovery Recycling
Recharging Station.

NOTE: Suitable protective clothing
comprises: Wrap around safety glasses or
helmet, heatproof gloves, rubber apron or

waterproof overalls and rubber boots.

REMEDIAL ACTIONS

1. If liquid R134a strikes the eye, do not rub it.

Gently run large quantities of eyewash over the
eye to raise the temperature. If eyewash is not
available cool, clean water may be used. Cover
eye with clean pad and seek immediate medical
attention.

2. If liquid R134a is splashed on the skin run large

quantities of water over the area as soon as
possible to raise the temperature. Carry out the
same actions if skin comes into contact with
discharging cylinders. Wrap affected parts in
blankets or similar material and seek immediate
medical attention.

3. If suspected of being overcome by inhalation of

R134a vapour seek fresh air. If unconscious
remove to fresh air. Apply artificial respiration
and/or oxygen and seek immediate medical
attention.

NOTE: Due to its low evaporating
temperature of -30

°

C, R134a should be

handled with care.

WARNING: Do not allow a refrigerant
container to be heated by a direct flame or
to be placed near any heating appliance. A

refrigerant container must not be heated above
50

°

C.

WARNING: Do not leave a container of
refrigerant without its cap fitted. Do not
transport a container of refrigerant that is

unrestrained, especially in the boot of a car.
