SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could cause in personal
injury or death.
Before performing service or maintenance operations on
unit, always turn off main power switch to unit and install
lockout tag. Unit may have more than one power switch.
Installation and servicing of air-conditioning equipment can
be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical
components. Only trained and qualified service personnel
should install, repair, or service air-conditioning equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance
functions of cleaning coils and filters and replacing filters. All
other operations should be performed by trained service
personnel. 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 local building codes and appropriate national
electrical codes (in USA, ANSI/NFPA 70, National Electrical
Code (NEC); in Canada, CSA C22.1) for special
requirements. Wear safety glasses and work gloves. Use
quenching cloth for unbrazing operations. Have fire
extinguisher available for all brazing operations.
