described in Chapter 2. Chapter 1 contains general, descriptive information and provides an overview which can speed 

up the installation process and simplify troubleshooting.  
If a malfunction occurs, follow this troubleshooting sequence: 
1.  Make sure you understand how the Marvair unit works (Chapters 1 & 3).
2.  Identify and correct installation errors (Chapter 2).
3.  Refer to the troubleshooting information in Chapter 4.
If you are still unable to correct the problem, contact the Factory at 1-800-841-7854 for additional assistance.

Please read the following “Important Safety Precautions” before beginning any work.

Important Safety Precautions

1.  USE CARE when LIFTING or TRANSPORTING equipment. 
2.  TRANSPORT the UNIT UPRIGHT. Laying it down on its side may cause oil to leave the compressor and breakage 

or damage to other components.      

3.  TURN ELECTRICAL POWER OFF AT THE breaker or fuse box BEFORE installing or working on the equipment. 

LINE VOLTAGES ARE HAZARDOUS or LETHAL.    

4.  OBSERVE and COMPLY with ALL applicable PLUMBING, ELECTRICAL, and BUILDING CODES and ordinances.                        
5.  SERVICE may be performed ONLY by QUALIFIED and EXPERIENCED PERSONS.        

 

* Wear safety goggles when servicing the refrigeration circuit

 

* Beware of hot surfaces on refrigerant circuit components  

 

* Beware of sharp edges on sheet metal components 

 

* Use care when recovering or adding refrigerant               

6. 

Use COMMON SENSE - BE SAFETY-CONSCIOUS

This is the safety alert symbol 

. When you see this symbol on the Marvair unit and in the instruction manuals 

be alert to the potential for personal injury. Understand the signal word DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION and
