DANGER: Never operate the unit with the discharge valve closed
as it could cause the compressor to explode, causing death or
serious injury.
DANGER: Never apply heat to a sealed refrigeration system or
container because it could explode, causing death or serious
injury.
DANGER: Fluorocarbon refrigerants, in the presence of an open
flame or electrical short, produce toxic gases that are severe
respiratory irritants capable of causing death.
DANGER: Be careful when working with a refrigerant or
refrigeration system in any enclosed or confined area with a
limited air supply (i.e., a trailer, container or the hold of a ship).
Refrigerant tends to displace air and can cause oxygen depletion
which may result in death by suffocation.
