Specified capacity:

6.2 liters (6.6 US qts, 5.5 lmp. qts)

HINT:

1. TOYOTA vehicles are filled with TOYOTA SLLC at the factory. In order to avoid damage to the engine cooling system and other technical problems, only use TOYOTA SLLC or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology (coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology consists of a combination of low phosphates and organic acids).
   

1. Contact your TOYOTA dealer for further details.
   

Slowly pour coolant into the radiator reservoir tank until it reaches the FULL line.

Press the inlet and outlet radiator hoses several times by hand, and then check the level of the coolant.

Charge with refrigerant HFC-134a (R134a).

Standard:

450 to 550 g (15.9 to 19.4 oz.)

SST

07110-58060(07117-58060,07117-58070,07117-58080,07117-58090,07117-78050,07117-88060,07117-88070,07117-88080)

NOTICE:

1. Do not turn the A/C on before charging with refrigerant. Doing so will cause the cooler compressor to work without refrigerant, resulting in overheating of the cooler compressor.
   
2. Approximately 100 g (3.53 oz.) of refrigerant may need to be charged after bubbles disappear.
   The refrigerant amount should be checked by quantity, not with the sight glass.
   

HINT:

Ensure that sufficient refrigerant is available to recharge the system when using a refrigerant recovery unit. Refrigerant recovery units are not always able to recover 100 % of the refrigerant from an A/C system.

Keep the A/C switch on for at least 2 minutes to warm up the compressor.

NOTICE:

Be sure to warm up the compressor when turning the A/C on after removing and installing the cooler refrigerant lines (including the compressor), to prevent damage to the compressor.

After recharging with refrigerant gas, check for leakage of refrigerant gas using a halogen leak detector.

Carry out the test under the following conditions:

1. IG OFF
   
2. Secure good ventilation (the gas leak detector may react to volatile gases which are not refrigerant, such as evaporated gasoline and exhaust gas).
   
3. Repeat the test 2 or 3 times.
   
4. Make sure that there is some refrigerant remaining in the refrigeration system.
   When the compressor is off: approx. 392 to 588 kPa (4 to 6 kgf/cm², 57 to 85 psi)
   

Using a gas leak detector, check for leakage from the refrigerant lines.

Bring the gas leak detector close to the drain hose with the detector's power off, and then turn the detector on.

HINT:

1. After the blower motor has stopped, let the cooling unit stand for more than 15 minutes.
   
2. Bring the gas leak detector sensor under the drain hose.
   
3. When bringing the gas leak detector close to the drain hose, make sure that the gas leak detector does not react to volatile gases.
   If it is not possible to avoid interference from volatile gases, the vehicle should be lifted up to allow testing.
   

If a gas leak is not detected from the drain hose, remove the blower motor control from the cooling unit. Insert the gas leak detector sensor into the unit and perform the test.

Disconnect the pressure switch connector and leave it for approximately 20 minutes. Bring the gas leak detector close to the pressure switch and perform the test.
