The air conditioning must be run for ten minutes
or so weekly during  periods when the system
would not normally be used to ensure that the
compressor  and seals  are  lubricated.  If this
precaution is not observed the compressor seals
may become stuck to the compressor shaft and
damaged when the system is next used result-
ing in a loss  of refrigerant and damage to  the
compressor.

The  air  conditioning   compressor  drive  belt
should  be checked  to  ensure  freedom  from

deflects by  about 0.3  inches (8  mm) when a
force  of 98  N  is applied  to  the belt  halfway
between   the   compressor   and   crankshaft
