  1. INSPECT COOLER CONDENSER CORE 
    1. If the fins of the condenser assy (w/ receiver) are dirty, clean them with water and dry them with compressed air.
      NOTE: Do not damage the fins of the cooler condenser core.
    2. If the fins of the condenser assy (w/ receiver) are bent, straighten them using a screwdriver or pliers.
  2. INSPECT LEAKAGE OF REFRIGERANT 
    1. Using a halogen leak detector, check the pipe joints for gas leakage.
    2. Check the tightening torque of the joint if gas leakage is detected in a pipe joint.
