Safety Precautions (Rev 04/03)
ii
• SKIN: Flush area with large amounts of lukewarm
water. Do not apply heat. Remove contaminated cloth-
ing and shoes. Wrap burns with dry, sterile, bulky
dressing to protect from infection/injury. Get medical
attention. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
• INHALATION: Move victim to fresh air and use CPR
if necessary. Stay with victim until arrival of emer-
gency medical personnel.
REFRIGERATION OIL
Observe the following precautions when working with or
around synthetic or polyol ester refrigerant oil:
• Do not allow refrigerant oil to contact your eyes.
• Do not allow prolonged or repeated contact with skin or
clothing.
• To prevent irritation, you should wash thoroughly
immediately after handling refrigerant oil. Rubber
gloves are recommended when handling polyol ester
oil.
First Aid
• EYES: Immediately flush eyes with large amounts of
water for at least 15 minutes while holding the eyelids
open. Get prompt medical attention.
• SKIN: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash
thoroughly with soap and water. Get medical attention
if irritation persists.
• INHALATION: Move victim to fresh air and restore
breathing necessary. Stay with victim until arrival of
emergency personnel.
• INGESTION: do not induce vomiting. Contact a local
poison control center or physician immediately.
ELECTRICAL HAZARDS
Microprocessor Service
Precautions must be taken to prevent electrostatic discharge
when servicing the microprocessor controller and related
components. Potential differences considerably lower than
those which produce a small spark from a finger to a door
knob can severely damage or destroy solid-state integrated
circuit components.
The following procedures must be rigidly adhered to when
servicing units to avoid microprocessor damage or
destruction.
1. Disconnect all power to the unit.
2. Avoid wearing clothing that generates static electricity
(wool, nylon, polyester, etc.).
3. Do wear a static discharge wrist strap (TK P/N
204-622) with the lead end connected to the micropro-
cessor’s ground terminal. These straps are available at
most electronic equipment distributors. DO NOT wear
these straps with power applied to the unit.
Refer to the THERMOGUARD µP-IV Microprocessor
Controller Operations and Diagnosis Manual (TK
41087) (T.I.P. Procedure #P41AA12B) and the Electro-
static Discharge Training Guide (TK 40282) for addi-
tional information.
4. Avoid contacting the electronic components on the cir-
cuit boards of the unit being serviced.
5. Leave the circuit boards in their static proof packing
materials until ready for installation.
6. If a defective controller is to be returned for repair, it
should be returned in the same static protective packing
materials from which the replacement component was
removed.
7. After servicing the controller or any other circuits, the
wiring should be checked for possible errors before
restoring power.
