Refrigerant Evacuation and Recharging

The HVAC and High Voltage (HV) battery coolant circuits are sealed to prevent the discharge of refrigerant. The refrigerant must be recovered before any removal of air conditioning system components using the recommended equipment.

Two ports are provided on the HVAC system and are accessible under the hood.

WARNING: Makes sure that all safety precautions have been taken and the HVAC and HV battery circuits have been placed in service mode (see below) prior to any attempts to evacuate the air conditioning system.
