1. After evacuating or charging the system, close all manifold valves.
2. Select the leakage test mode using the MODE товч.
3. The device will record the initial pressure and monitor pressure changes over a set period.
4. The display will show the detection time, initial pressure, current pressure, and the calculated leakage pressure difference.
5. A significant pressure drop indicates a leak.

5.4 Refrigerant System Evacuation

1. Connect the yellow hose to a vacuum pump and the system's service port (usually the low-pressure side).
2. Open the low-pressure valve on the manifold.
3. Вакуум насосыг ажиллуул.
4. Monitor the vacuum pressure and percentage on the LM150 display. Continue evacuation until the desired vacuum level is reached.
