On combines with air conditioner without heater, possibly use an electric heater or similar to raise the cab temperature to +21 °C. Operate the air conditioner for five to ten minutes. Shut off the air conditioner and switch off the engine. Close the compressor service valves (1 and 2). Screw on the caps (3) tightly. Ensure that the blade-type fuse (4) in the current- carrying line to the electro-magnetic clutch of the compressor is definitely removed.
