ALL phases of this installation must comply with NATIONAL, STATE AND LOCAL CODES.
IMPORTANT - This Document is customer property and is to remain with this unit. Please return to service informa-
tion pack upon completion of work.
These instructions do not cover all variations in systems or provide for every possible contingency to be met in connection with
the installation. Should further information be desired or should particular problems arise which are not covered sufficiently for the
purchaser's purposes, the matter should be referred to your installing dealer or local distributor.
The manufacturer recommends installing only approved matched indoor and outdoor systems. All of the manufacture's split
systems are A.H.R.I. rated only with TXV/EEV indoor systems. Some of the benefits of installing approved matched indoor and
outdoor split systems are maximum efficiency, optimum performance and the best overall system reliability.

My Trane AC 4TTX6018-061 showed an LRA of 62 when it was started up by the technician. I was told the normal LRA is 52. The start up was done when the outside temperature was below 55 degrees. I was told I need a start assist device.

    STEP 5 - Replace the pressure tap valve cores after the service valves have cooled. Section 8. Refrigerant Line Leak Check 8.1 Check For Leaks STEP 1 - Pressurize the refrigerant lines and 150 PSIG evaporator coil to 150 PSIG using dry nitrogen. STEP 2 - Check for leaks by using a soapy solu- tion or bubbles at each brazed location.
