SA\FETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installing, starting up, and servicing air-conditioning equipment can
be hazardous due to system pressures, electrical components, and
equipment location (roofs, elevated structures, etc.).
Only trained, qualified installers and service mechanics should install,
start-up, and service this equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance functions such as
coil cleaning. All other operations should be performed by trained
service personnel.
When working on the equipment, observe precautions in the literature
and on tags, stickers, and labels attached to the equipment.
Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work gloves. Keep a
quenching cloth and fire extinguisher nearby when brazing. Use care
in handling, rigging, and setting bulky equipment.

included in the literature and attached to the unit. Consult local
building codes and National Electrical Code (NEC) for special
requirements. Recognize safety information. This is the safety-alert
symbol
. When you see this symbol on the unit and in instructions
or manuals, be alert to the potential for personal injury. Understand
these signal words:

INTRODUCTION
This service manual provides the necessary information to service,
repair, and maintain the
38MBR
family of heat pumps. Use the
“TABLE of CONTENTS” on page 1 to locate a desired topic. For
detailed information regarding product specifications refer to product
data documentation.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.
Before installing, modifying, or servicing system, main electrical
disconnect switch must be in the OFF position. There may be more than 1
disconnect switch.
Lock out and tag switch with a suitable warning label.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in
death, serious personal injury, and/or property
damage. Never use air or gases containing oxygen
for leak testing or operating refrigerant
compressors. Pressurized mixtures of air or gases
containing oxygen can lead to an explosion.
WARNING
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage or improper
operation.
Do not bury more than 36 in. (914 mm) of refrigerant pipe in the ground.
If any section of pipe is buried, there must be a 6 in. (152 mm) vertical rise
to the valve connections on the outdoor units. If more than the
recommended length is buried, refrigerant may migrate to the cooler
buried section during extended periods of system shutdown. This causes
refrigerant slugging and could possibly damage the compressor at start-up.
