NOTE:
Measure the air conditioner output temperature after approx.10 min have elapsed from engine start.
1. Inspect the refrigerant pressure. (See REFRIGERANT PRESSURE CHECK.)
2. Place a dry-bulb thermometer in the driver-side center ventilator outlet.
3. Start the engine and warm it up.
4. Set the fan speed to MAX HI.
5. Turn the A/C switch on.
6. Set to RECIRCULATE mode.

8. Set to VENT mode.
9. Close all the doors and windows.
10. Maintain the engine speed at 1,500 rpm.
11. Wait until the air conditioner output temperature stabilizes.Stabilized condition
The A/C compressor repeatedly turns on and off at regular intervals.
12. After the blower air is stabilized, read the dry-bulb thermometer.
13. Verify the ambient temperature.
14. Verify that the temperature reading is in the shaded zone.
If the there is any malfunction, inspect the refrigerant system according to the troubleshooting chart.
