Compressor Oil Checking - General Procedures: Notes

Some models have compressor-mounted service valves that allow oil checking by isolating the compressor. On all others, system must be discharged using approved refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment and compressor may need to be removed to check oil. After oil level is checked and adjusted, A/C system must be evacuated and recharged.
