Operation
Note:
The MAC2000 will automatically restart the recovery process
if the unit senses a rise in the A/C system’s pressure.

After recovering the refrigerant from the A/C system, close the
service-port valves, and then remove the hoses from the vehicle.
Observe that the service hoses should remain under vacuum. This
ensures that no contaminants are introduced into the A/C system

3.4 Vacuum Mode (Evacuation)
The Vacuum mode is used to remove residual air and moisture from
the vehicle’s A/C system by pulling the system into a deep vacuum.
This mode is most often used after completing a repair that required
opening the A/C system to the atmosphere. Moisture and/or air in an
A/C system can cause erratic operation and must be removed before
recharging the system with refrigerant.
Evacuate a vehicle’s A/C system as follows:
1.
If not already done, plug the MAC2000 into a properly grounded
AC outlet; set the Power switch to ON; then wait until the unit
completes its self diagnostics. The screen will display “Select
mode” when ready.
