Before installation, all replacement refrigerant system components (except the compressor) should be filled with refrigerant (PAG) oil according to the system distribution (percentage) below:
Compressor: approx. 50%
Condensor: approx. 10%
Suction pipe: approx. 10%
Evaporator: approx. 20%
Accumulator: approx. 10%
