7. The machine will continue pulling a vacuum on the system until the timer stops the process.
The timer on the machine continuously displays the amount of time remaining in the recovery
8. The machine will hold the system in the vacuumed state to test the system for leaks. If the vacuum leaks off during the leak test period, then the display will give a notification that there is a leak. After the leak test has timed out, the system can be recharged with the correct amount of refrigerant.
The AC machine can run a leak test after the vacuum pump shuts off by monitoring the vacuum level for several minutes. If the vacuum drops off, the machine will alert the operator that a system leak is present, which should be located and repaired prior to adding the refrigerant to the
