SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installation and servicing of air-conditioning equipment can
be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical compo-
nents. Only trained and qualified service personnel should in-
stall, repair, or service air-conditioning equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform the basic maintenance
functions of cleaning coils and filters and replacing filters. All
other operations should be performed by trained service per-
sonnel. When working on air-conditioning equipment, observe
precautions in the literature, tags and labels attached to the unit,
and other safety precautions that may apply.
Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work
gloves. Use quenching cloth for unbrazing operations. Have
fire extinguishers available for all brazing operations.
WARNING
Before performing service or maintenance operations on
unit, turn off main power switch to unit. Electrical shock
could cause personal injury.
WARNING
1. Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service,
or maintenance can cause property damage, personal
injury, or loss of life. Refer to the Users Information
Manual provided with this unit for more details.
2. Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable va-
pors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
What to do if you smell gas:
1. DO NOT try to light any appliance.
2. DO NOT touch any electrical switch, or use any
phone in your building.
3. IMMEDIATELY call your gas supplier from a neigh-
bors phone. Follow the gas suppliers instructions.
4. If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire
department.
WARNING
DO NOT USE TORCH to remove any component. System
contains oil and refrigerant under pressure.
To remove a component, wear protective gloves and gog-
gles and proceed as follows:
a. Shut off electrical power to unit.
b. Recover refrigerant to relieve all pressure from sys-
tem using both high-pressure and low pressure ports.
c. Traces of vapor should be displaced with nitrogen
and the work area should be well ventilated. Refrig-
erant in contact with an open flame produces toxic
gases.
d. Cut component connection tubing with tubing cutter
and remove component from unit. Use a pan to catch
any oil that may come out of the lines and as a gage
for how much oil to add to the system.
e. Carefully unsweat remaining tubing stubs when nec-
essary. Oil can ignite when exposed to torch flame.
Failure to follow these procedures may result in personal
injury or death.
CAUTION
DO NOT re-use compressor oil or any oil that has been
exposed to the atmosphere. Dispose of oil per local codes
and regulations. DO NOT leave refrigerant system open to
air any longer than the actual time required to service the
equipment. Seal circuits being serviced and charge with
dry nitrogen to prevent oil contamination when timely
repairs cannot be completed. Failure to follow these proce-
dures may result in damage to equipment.
