Introduction

Read this manual thoroughly before operating or
servicing this unit.

Warnings, Cautions, and Notices

Safety advisories appear throughout this manual as
required. Your personal safety and the proper
operation of this machine depend upon the strict
observance of these precautions.

The three types of advisories are defined as follows:

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in minor or
moderate injury. It could also be used to alert
against unsafe practices.

Indicates a situation that could result in
equipment or property-damage only
accidents.

Important 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 and HCFCs such as
saturated or unsaturated HFCs and HCFCs.

Important 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 according to local
rules. For the USA, 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.
