HOW TO USE:

1. Safety First: Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses and gloves, when working with AC refrigerants and dyes.
2. Locate Service Port: Identify the low-side service port on your vehicle’s R-134a AC system.
3. Prepare Injector: Connect a suitable dye injector (e.g., refillable inline or syringe type, sold separately) to the 1 oz dye bottle.
4. Inject Dye: Follow the instructions for your specific dye injector to introduce the recommended amount of dye into the AC system. A common recommendation is 0.25 oz (7ml) per 5 lbs (2 kg) of refrigerant or 10 oz (300 ml) of lubricant.
5. Run AC System: Start the vehicle and run the AC system on its coldest setting with the fan on high for at least 15–20 minutes. This allows the dye to thoroughly circulate and mix with the refrigerant and oil throughout the system.
6. Inspect for Leaks: Using a high-quality UV (ultraviolet) leak detection lamp, thoroughly scan all AC components, including hoses, fittings, condensers, evaporators, compressors, and service ports.
7. Identify Leaks: Any areas where refrigerant and dye have escaped will glow a bright, unmistakable green under the UV light, indicating a leak location.
8. Repair and Verify: Once leaks are identified and repaired, vacuum the system, recharge it with the appropriate amount of R-134a refrigerant, and re-inspect with the UV light to confirm the repair was successful.
