HOW TO USE:

1. Preparation: Ensure the A/C system is properly charged. Connect a compatible caulking gun-style dye injector to the system's low-side service port.
2. Installation: Insert the LF1800 dye cartridge into the injector assembly. Follow the injector's instructions to ensure a secure, sealed connection.
3. Injection: Operate the injector to release the specified amount of dye into the A/C system. The dye will begin to circulate with the refrigerant and oil.
4. Circulation: Allow the A/C system to run for a period of time to ensure the dye is fully distributed throughout the system. The time required may vary depending on the system type.
5. Inspection: Using a UV or "black light" and UV-enhancing glasses, systematically scan all A/C components, including hoses, fittings, and the compressor.
6. Identification: A leak will be revealed by a glowing, fluorescent green spot where the dye has escaped the system. Mark the location for repair.
