(1)
If there is gas leakage, air enters into the A/C system. The desiccant within the receiver/drier absorbs
the moisture from the air and becomes saturated. If the A/C system is used in this condition, the
inside of the A/C compressor will begin to rust due to this moisture, which may cause lock up or
noise to occur. Therefore, replacement of the receiver/drier is necessary.
