Stop Micro Leak - Bottle
Instructions For Use Manual
1 - Remove any refrigerant contained in the air conditioning system.
2 – Put the system under vacuum mode for 5 minutes. NB: If you are unable produce a depression of by 0.80 bar within 5 minutes and
maintain it at 0.80 bar for another 5 minutes, it means that the hole is too large to
be repaired by the product. It is also possible to have several micro- leaks that can
therefore be repaired. Nitrogen may also be used to measure the degree of leaks.
3 - Create and maintain a depression of 0.80 bar for at least 30 minutes to extract
humidity completely from the system.
4 - Turn tap (A) anti-clockwise until the piercing needle (B) is under the black joint.
5 - Carefully screw the bottle (C) onto the thread (B).
6 - Remove the vacuum connection on the low pressure side of the air conditioning unit, and connect
the quick coupling connector (D) to the low pressure side.
7 - Continue to vacuum process for 1 minute. Remove the low-pressure quick coupling connector (D).
8 - Recharge the aircon system following the manufacturers’ guidelines.
