3-2. Use R410A exclusive cylinder only.
When charging with a refrigerant cylinder, use an
electronic scale for charging refrigerant. In this case,
if the volume of refrigerant in the cylinder becomes
less than 20% of the fully-charged amount, the
composition of the refrigerant starts to change. Thus,
do not use the refrigerant if the amount in the charging
cylinder is less than 20%. Also, charge the minimum
necessary amount to the charging cylinder before
using it to charge the air conditioning unit.
