Component Description
| Component | Description |
| Evaporator | The mist form liquid refrigerant transforms to gas by evaporation by the air conveyed from blower motor. The air is cooled by the heat by evaporation. |
| Condenser | Cools refrigerant discharged from compressor, and transforms it to liquid refrigerant. |
| Compressor | Intakes, compresses, and discharges refrigerant, to circulate refrigerant inside the refrigerant cycle. |
| Refrigerant pressure sensor | Refer to " REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR ". |
| Liquid tank | Eliminates foreign matter in refrigerant, and stores temporarily liquid refrigerant. |
| Expansion valve | Transforms high-pressure liquid refrigerant to mist form low-pressure liquid refrigerant by drawing function. |
Scheme 1
Perform Lubricant Return Operation
| CAUTION | If a large amount of refrigerant or lubricant leakage is detected, never perform lubricant return operation. |
- Start the engine and set to the following conditions. Engine speed: Idling to 1, 200 RPM A/C switch: ON Fan (blower) speed: Maximum speed set Intake door position: Recirculation Temperature setting: Full cold
- Perform lubricant return operation for approximately 10 minutes.
- Stop the engine.
- Lubricant return operation is complete.
