vacuum operation is over, add the quantity in grams of
R-134a to the refrigeration system. Remember that every
system has an exact quantity of R-134a with a tolerance of
5 grams that can be added. (Figure 4)

Air evacuating from the system begins as soon as the
pump starts. The refrigeration system must be kept under
vacuum until the reading on the low-pressure gauge
indicates vacuum (0 absolute, -1 atm., -760 mm hg) in any
case it is advisable to keep the pump running for about 30
minutes. (Figure 3)
In case that a considerable leakage occurs it will be
necessary to stop the vacuum pump and to add asmall
quantity of Freon to the system, if vacuum should not be
obtained (pressure gauge can't fall to 1 atmosphere), start
the refrigeration unit and find the leakage with the special
leak-finder. When the defective soldering point is visible,
re-do it after opening the extension tube valve and
reestablishing the normal outside pressure inside the
group.
Because the melted alloy is sucked into the tubes and
block them, the pressure must be rebalanced when
vacuum is in the system in soldering. As soon as the

EVAPORATOR(Door Inside)
- The heart of the refrigerator.
- It evaporates the refrigerant
fluid and thereby absorbs
heat from the surrounding.
THERMOSTAT
Regulates the operation of
the motor and controlls the
temperature inside the
refrigerator.
DRIP TRAY
Catches the water that
drips off the evaporator
when defrosting.
SUPPORTER CAN
Keeps any kinds of bottles.
PLASTIC COATED
SHELVES
Have full width and can
slide out.
MAGNETIC GASKET
- Tight fitting door seal
keeps all the cooling
power locked inside.
- No hooks or latches.
