Operating Instructions
Recharge the A/C System
1. Press CHARGE. Press CHARGE again to toggle
between a high-side charge, a low-side charge, or
both.
Note:
• Charge mode after injecting oil will allow only a high-
side charge.
• The blue light on the control panel indicates a low-
side charge; the red light indicates a high-side charge.
See Figure 8.
2. Accept the default weight by pressing START / YES,
or type in a weight using the number keys, and
press START / YES.
3. Select START / YES to perform an oil inject; select
STOP / NO to skip the oil inject.
4. After a valid charge weight is entered, the display reads
CHARGE IN PROGRESS / DO NOT DISTURB
X.XX LBS. (X.XX KG)
Moving or bumping the unit at this point may result
in an incorrect reading.
Note:
• During a charge cycle, if the unit fails to transfer
refrigerant due to low tank pressure, the charge
process is automatically interrupted and the unit
operates in a mode to build tank pressure. Once
tank pressure is sufficient, the unit automatically
completes the charge.
• When the charge cycle gets close to the weight
entered in Step 2, the unit slows down. It’ll charge,
settle, charge again, settle, etc., with the blue/red
lights illuminating accordingly.
5. When the charge is complete, the display reads
CHARGED XXX LBS (KG)
PRESS START TO EQUALIZE HOSES
STOP TO EXIT
Press START / YES to equalize pressure in the
service hoses. This ensures all liquid refrigerant
trapped in the hoses is transferred to the vehicle A/C
system for an accurate charge.
Note: Answering STOP / NO to this message will
cause the machine to display
COMPENSATING HOSES
DO NOT DISTURB
Operating Tips
After selecting the CHARGE function and
entering a desired weight, if the weight

PRESS ANY KEY TO EXIT
Refer to the Maintenance section of this
manual for instructions to Manually Refill
the Internal Storage Vessel (ISV).
