Routine Maintenance; Filling The Machine Bottle - FLO-DYNAMICS CCST 388 Manuel D'utilisation

NOTE - The automatic procedure may be run even if the A/C system is empty. In this case the
machine will begin with the vacuum phase. When working with A/C systems with a single
high-pressure coupling, set the charging quantity between 3 and 4 oz. (100g) in excess of the
required quantity, since in this case it will be impossible to recover the residual refrigerant from
the hoses.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

FILLING THE MACHINE BOTTLE

This operation must be performed whenever the available refrigerant fluid in the bottle is less
than 4.5lb (2kg) and must in any case be performed when the "empty bottle" alarm is
displayed. Procure a bottle of R134a gas and connect the liquid side coupling of the external
bottle to the high pressure hose (if the external bottle is not supplied with a liquid side coupling,
upend it to recover liquid refrigerant). Open the tap of the external bottle and the high-pressure
tap of the machine. If the external bottle is not supplied with a suction device, turn it upside
down to obtain a higher delivery rate.
Switch the machine on. The MAIN MENU will appear after a few seconds:
