1. Evacuate the system using a vacuum pump.
2. Charge the system with new R-12 according to each individual vehicle manufacturer's procedure as outlined in this Manual. Also see Refrigerant Capacity in this Section. 
3. Leak test the system, with particular attention to oil new connections and components.
4. Make a performance test of the system.
   NOTE: Each of the above procedures is detailed in the GENERAL SERVICE Section of this Manual. Also refer to individual articles within this Supplement for further description of each vehicle's system.
