OVERVIEW
1.1
WARRANTY
A.
Warranty is based on the general terms and conditions of the manufacturer. The warranty is void if the equipment
is repaired or modified without the written approval of the manufacturer, if the operating limits are exceeded or if the
control system or the electrical wiring is modified. Damage due to misuse, lack of maintenance or failure to comply
with the manufacturer’s instructions or recommendations is not covered by the warranty obligation. If the user does
not conform to the rules of this manual, it may entail cancellation of warranty and liabilities by the manufacturer.
B.
Warranty is twelve (12) months as from the date of first start up at installation place or eighteen (18) months
after delivery at the project or other delivery location indicated by the customer. The date the unit is operated for
the first time means the date reported in the “1st start up form” contained into the “unit log book”. This form should
be filled in and sent, within 8 days from the start up, to Trane.
C.
The warranty is valid if all the installation and start-up instructions have been adhered to (both those which may
have come from Trane and those coming from current practice), if the “1st start up form” has been filled in and sent
to the Trane after sales department.
D.
The warranty is subject to any faults or defects being reported within eight days from their discovery. The
warranty will only be applied if and when the purchaser suspends use of the equipment as soon as a defect has been
found.
E.
The warranty is valid if the first running of the unit is carried out by a Trane authorized assistance center.
F.
The warranty is subject to regular maintenance of the unit which is appropriately indicated in the “unit log book”
located inside the electrical panel.
G.
Warranty automatically ends in case of payments not fulfilled, non-performance of the contract and even if the
units show tampering without TRANE written approvals.
1.2
RECEIVING THE UNIT
On receiving the unit, it is up to the customer to check that there is no obvious damage or pieces missing. If this is so,
an immediate complaint must be made to the carrier for damage or for not-delivery and the Receiving Card to be found
inside the unit electrical panel must be filled in. Photographic evidence must be provided for macroscopic damage. The
card must be sent to Trane within 8 days of receiving the goods: if it is not sent back or delayed, the complaint will not
be accepted.
1.3
FACTORY INSPECTION
Trane units are inspected into the factory, in appropriate areas, in accordance with internal procedures. Each performance
test carried out on the unit is possible only if the same conditions are reproduced and maintained (charge consistency,
constant temperature and evaporation - condensation and recovery capacity, quality and tolerance of the measuring
instruments etc.) in the test rooms.
The inspection conditions are those indicated by the customer in the ordering phase: if not otherwise specified, reference
should be made to the nominal performance indicated in the technical bulletin in force at the date of the Confirmation of
the Order.

SAFETY REGULATIONS
2.1
ACCESS TO DANGEROUS AREA
The access to the unit dangerous areas is usually obstructed through protection panels, which are removable, by using a
tool. Axial fans are protected with accident prevention grilles.
For all the units which allow access to the cooling piping without security gratings (optional) or closing panelling, the
following precautions must be taken:
-mark the areas with contact risks.
-apply warning signs.
The danger zone must be of a suitable size to avoid any contact, even accidental contact.
Trane declines any responsibility for damage to things and unauthorized personnel in case of absence of clear and
static limiting systems of the risk areas and of the relevant warning and danger signs.
2.2
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
The operator must only intervene on the unit commands; he or she must not open any panels except for the one which
gives access to the command module.
The installer must only intervene on the connections between the plant and the machine; he or she must not open any
machine panels nor carry out any commands.
The following precautions should be made when approaching or working on the unit:
•
Use appropriate protection (gloves, glasses etc.) when using an open flame (welding) or compressed air.
•
If the unit is located in a closed environment, wear hearing protection.
