detaching the pressure sender, refrigerant escapes from the refrigerant
line for longer then 1 second, tighten the pressure sender, and renew
the non-return valve which is defective.Extract refrigerant, and open
the refrigerant circuit immediately afterwards.If more than 10 minutes
passed since the refrigerant has been extracted, do not open the
