Warnings, Cautions and Notices
Warnings, Cautions and Notices. 
Note that warnings, cautions and notices appear at 
appropriate intervals throughout this manual. Warnings are provide to alert installing contractors 
to potential hazards that could result in personal injury or death. Cautions are designed to alert 
personnel to hazardous situations that could result in personal injury, while notices indicate a 
situation that may result in equipment or property-damage-only accidents.
Your personal safety and the proper operation of this machine depend upon the strict observance 
of these precautions.

Environmental Concerns!
Scientific research has shown that certain man-made chemicals can affect the earth's naturally 
occurring stratospheric ozone layer when released to the atmosphere. In particular, several of the 
identified chemicals that may affect the ozone layer are refrigerants that contain Chlorine, Fluorine 
and Carbon (CFCs) and those containing Hydrogen, Chlorine, Fluorine and Carbon (HCFCs). Not all 
refrigerants containing these compounds have the same potential impact to the environment. 
Trane advocates the responsible handling of all refrigerants-including industry replacements for 
CFCs such as HCFCs and HFCs.
Responsible Refrigerant Practices!
Trane believes that responsible refrigerant practices are important to the environment, our 
customers, and the air conditioning industry. All technicians who handle refrigerants must be 
certified. The Federal Clean Air Act (Section 608) sets forth the requirements for handling, 
reclaiming, recovering and recycling of certain refrigerants and the equipment that is used in these 
service procedures. In addition, some states or municipalities may have additional requirements 
that must also be adhered to for responsible management of refrigerants. Know the applicable 
laws and follow them.
 
WARNING
Grounding Required!
Follow proper local and state electrical code on requirements for grounding. Failure to follow 
code could result in death or serious injury.
Overview of Manual
Note: One copy of this document ships inside the control panel of each unit and is customer 
property. It must be retained by the unit's maintenance personnel.
This booklet describes proper installation, operation, and maintenance procedures for air cooled 
systems. By carefully reviewing the information within this manual and following the instructions, 
the risk of improper operation and/or component damage will be minimized. It is important that 
periodic maintenance be performed to help assure trouble free operation. A maintenance schedule 
is provided at the end of this manual. Should equipment failure occur, contact a qualified service 
organization with qualified, experienced HVAC technicians to properly diagnose and repair this 
equipment.
