2. If the coolant gets into your eyes, immediately rinse them with clean water. Wear protective glasses.

3. The capacity to R-134a is under pressure, so keep it in place at a temperature no higher than 52 ?� C.

4. To check for leaks using a special determinant. Keep in mind that the R-134a refrigerant in contact with an open flame (the determinant of burns propane to produce a small flame) forms a poisonous gas - phosgene.

5. Use only the recommended lubricant to the air conditioning system with refrigerant R-134a. The use of other lubricants can cause damage to the system.
