  6. To install, reverse the removal procedure.
NOTE:
  • If you're installing a new heater core, add refrigerant oil (PAG OIL).
  • Replace the O-rings with new ones at each fitting, and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil before installing them. Be sure to use the right O-rings for R-1234yf to avoid leakage.
  • Immediately after using the oil, replace the cap on the container, and seal it to avoid moisture absorption.
  • Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle; it may damage the paint, if the refrigerant oil contacts the paint, wash it off immediately.
  • Apply sealant to the grommets.
  • Make sure that there is no air leakage.
  • Charge the system and test its performance.
  • Do not interchange the inlet and outlet heater hoses and install the hose clamps securely.
