The air conditioning system is under pressure at all times, engine running or not. HEAT MUST NEVER BE APPLIED TO A CHARGED SYSTEM. The system is charged with Freon-12 (CCL2F2-Dichlorodifluoromethane) which is not toxic or flammable. There is, however, a reason for warning. When Freon-12 makes contact with a flame, lethal phosgene gas is made. INHALING FREON THROUGH A LIGHTED CIGARETTE CAN CAUSE VIOLENT ILLNESS. To prevent possible personal injury, always wear goggles and do not smoke when the air conditioning system is opened.
