conditioning and cooling systems. Mixed
refrigerants have to be disposed of
according to the current regulations.
Never use ACX equipment with systems
containing compressed air; mixtures of
R134a or R1234yf with air or oxygen may
be potentially flammable.
Do not modify calibration of safety
devices. Do not remove seals of safety
valves and of control systems. Do not use
external tanks or other storage containers
that are not type-approved or without
safety valves.
Make sure the equipment's aeration and
ventilation ports are not obstructed or
covered while the equipment is operating.
HOSE CONNECTIONS: Hoses may
contain pressurised refrigerant. Before
changing the service couplers, check the
respective pressures in the hoses
(pressure gauge). Before connection to a
car A/C system, to an external
tank/cylinder, check that the quick
couplers are closed (unscrewed HP and
LP valves). Scrupulously follow the
instructions on the equipment's display.

CLOSING/OPENING:
MAINTENANCE/GENERAL CLEANING:
The equipment has to be serviced at the
intervals indicated by the equipment itself.
The service station maintenance has to
be performed according to the
procedures described in this manual and
to the current safety regulations.
Use only MAHLE original parts.
When the equipment requires the drier
filter and the vacuum pump oil to be
changed, you have to be careful in the
replacement.
A/C service station maintenance can be
carried out exclusively by a trained
operator or by a service man of a MAHLE
certified seller.
Do not use chemical agents for the
service station cleaning as they could
attack the material or the surface.
STOP FOR LONG PERIOD: Store the
equipment in a safe place, disconnected
from the mains, away from excessive
temperatures, humidity and the risk of
damaging impact.
Contact the Technical Service to run a
safety shutdown of the equipment, and if
scrapping the unit, to drain and recycle
the R134a or R1234yf refrigerant as
required by local legislation.
To resume operation, repeat the
installation (there is no need to register
the unit anew on the website) and run the
commissioning trials and regular
operational checks as required by local
legislation.
