To connect the quick release connector properly, push it into the evaporative pipe until a click sound is heard.
New quick release connectors are fitted with a checker tab that prevent improper installation. This checker tab cannot normally be removed. When the quick release connector is properly connected to the evaporative pipe, the lock is released and the checker tab comes off. Due to this, it can be verified that the quick release connector is completely connected.

When the quick release connector is connected, the evaporative pipe projection is locked at the clamp lock point. To release the quick connector lock for each type, follow the procedure in the order shown in each figure.
