Procedure:
1.  Confirm that the 2- and 3-way valves are opened.
2.  Connect the vacuum pump to the 3-way valve’s 
service port.
3.  Evacuate the system for approximately one hour. 
Confirm that the compound meter indicates  
-0.1 MPa (14.5Psi).
4.  Close the valve (Low side) on the charge set and turn 
off the vacuum pump. 
  Wait for five minutes then check whether the gauge 
needle moves after turning off the vacuum pump. If 
the gauge needle moves backward, check whether 
there is gas leakage.
5.  Disconnect the charge hose from the vacuum pump.
6.  Mount the caps of  service port and 2- and 3-way 
valves.
7.  Use a torque wrench to tighten the caps to a torque 
of 18N.m.
