WARNING
!
When installing or servicing this equipment, ALWAYS
exercise basic safety precautions to avoid the possibility of
electric shock.
1. Power wiring and grounding of equipment must comply
with local codes.
2. Power supply must agree with equipment nameplate.
3. Install a separate disconnect switch at the outdoor unit.
4. Ground the outdoor unit per local code requirements.
5. Provide flexible electrical conduit whenever vibration
transmission may create a noise problem within the
structure.
6. The use of color coded low voltage wire is recommended
to simplify connections between the outdoor unit, the
thermostat and the indoor unit.

7. Table 1 defines maximum
total
length of low voltage
wiring from outdoor unit, to indoor unit, and to thermostat.
8. Mount the indoor thermostat in accordance with instruc-
tion included with the thermostat. Wire per appropriate
hook-up diagram (included in these instructions).
F. COMPRESSOR START UP
After all electrical wiring is complete, SET THE THERMO-
STAT SYSTEM SWITCH IN THE OFF POSITION SO
COMPRESSOR WILL NOT RUN, and apply power by
closing the system main disconnect switch. This will activate
the compressor sump heat (where used). Do not change the
Thermostat System Switch until power has been applied for
one (1) hour. Following this procedure will prevent potential
compressor overload trip at the initial start-up.
G. OPERATIONAL AND CHECKOUT
PROCEDURES
Final phases of this installation are the unit Operational and
Checkout Procedures which are found in this instruction (see
page 8). To obtain proper performance, all units must be
operated and charge adjustments made in accordance with
procedures found in the Service Facts.
H. ELECTRIC HEATERS
Electric heaters, if used, are to be installed in the air han-
dling device according to the instructions accompanying the
air handler and the heaters.
I. START CONTROL
Some models have quick start components which are factory
installed. For models that do not have factory installed start
components, provisions are made for a field installed start kit
accessory. When adding an accessory, follow the instructions
provided with the kit.
J. OUTDOOR THERMOSTAT
An outdoor thermostat TAYSTAT250A may be field installed.
For data, see wiring diagram attached to unit and instruction
sheet packaged with outdoor thermostat.
K. XL SEACOAST SHIELD
All units are shipped with a black Seacoast Shield. Removal
of the shield will potentially shorten the life of the joints in
the outdoor coil.
