Trane Symbio 210 Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual page 3

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.
Proper Field Wiring and Grounding Required!
Failure to follow code could result in death or serious injury.
All field wiring MUST be performed by qualified personnel. Improperly installed and grounded
field wiring poses FIRE and ELECTROCUTION hazards. To avoid these hazards, you MUST
follow requirements for field wiring installation and grounding as described in NEC and your
local/state/national electrical codes.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Required!
Failure to wear proper PPE for the job being undertaken could result in death or serious injury.
