WARNINGS
ALLOW ONLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL TO OPERATE THE UNIT. Before operating the unit,
read and follow the instructions and warnings in this manual. The operator must be familiar with air
conditioning and refrigeration systems, refrigerants, and the dangers of pressurized components. If
the operator cannot read these instructions, operating instructions and safety precautions must be
read and discussed in the operator’s native language.
– Si el operador no puede leer las instrucciones, las instrucciones de operación y las
precauciones de seguridad deberán leerse y comentarse en el idioma nativo del operador.

PRESSURIZED TANK CONTAINS LIQUID REFRIGERANT. Do not recover or charge refrigerants
into non-refillable containers; use only authorized refillable containers.
ALL HOSES MAY CONTAIN LIQUID REFRIGERANT UNDER PRESSURE. Contact with
refrigerant may cause personal injury. Wear protective equipment, including safety goggles.
Disconnect hoses with extreme caution.
DO NOT BREATHE REFRIGERANT AND LUBRICANT VAPOR OR MIST. Exposure may cause
personal injury, especially to the eyes, nose, throat, and lungs. Use the unit in locations with
mechanical ventilation that provides at least four air changes per hour. If accidental system
discharge occurs, ventilate the work area before resuming service.
AVOID USING AN EXTENSION CORD. An extension cord may overheat and cause fire. If you
must use an extension cord, use the shortest possible cord with a minimum size of 14 AWG.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, do not use the unit in the vicinity of spilled or open containers
of gasoline or other flammable substances.
DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR TO PRESSURE TEST OR LEAK TEST THE UNIT OR
VEHICLE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM. Some mixtures of air and refrigerant are combustible at
elevated pressures. These mixtures are potentially dangerous and may result in fire or explosion
causing personal injury or property damage.
USE THIS UNIT WITH ONLY R-134a REFRIGERANT. The unit is for recovering, recycling, and
recharging only R-134a refrigerant! Do not attempt to adapt the unit for another refrigerant. Do not
mix refrigerant types through a system or in the same container; mixing of refrigerants will cause
severe damage to the unit and the vehicle air conditioning system.
HIGH VOLTAGE ELECTRICITY INSIDE THE UNIT HAS A RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
Exposure may cause personal injury. Disconnect the power before opening the back door or
servicing the unit.
