Safety Summary Safety Precautions Your Carrier Transicold refrigeration unit has been designed with the safety of the operator in mind. During normal operation, all moving parts are fully enclosed to help prevent injury. During all pre-trip inspections, daily inspec- tions, and problem troubleshooting, you may be exposed to moving parts. Stay clear of all moving parts when the unit is in operation and when the ON/OFF switch is in the ON position.
Specific Warning and Caution Statements To help identify the label hazards on the unit and explain the level of awareness each one carries, an explanation is given with the appropriate consequences: DANGER: Means an immediate hazard which WILL result in severe personal injury or death. WARNING: Means to warn against hazards or unsafe conditions which COULD result in severe personal injury or death.

CAUTION Under no circumstances should anyone attempt to repair the microprocessor module or Cab Command! Should a problem develop with these components, contact your nearest Carrier Transicold dealer for replacement. CAUTION If starting the unit for the first time after installation or starting after adding/removing an optional feature or if Owner’s operating parameters have changed, the Configuration will need to be reset.
