Do not overfill the internal storage vessel, because overfilling may cause explosion and personal injury or death. Do not recover refrigerants into nonrefillable containers; use only federally authorized refillable containers (DOT spec. 4BW or 4BA). HOSES MAY CONTAIN LIQUID REFRIGERANT UNDER pRESSURE.

The unit is designed to recover, recycle, and recharge only R-134a refrigerant. Do not attempt to adapt the unit for another refrigerant.
