Air Conditioning Charge Unit
Kenworth
The Air Conditioning Charge Unit is an electric refrigeration unit that op-
erates automatically to cool the Storage Cooler, and is located on the
passenger's side of the vehicle, behind the sleeper compartment. The
dash mounted Charge Enable Switch must be in the CHARGE posi-
tion to enable the Charge Unit to operate. The unit will operate when the
engine is running or connected to a 120-Volt AC electrical supply. It will
not operate using only battery power as this will deplete the batteries too
quickly.
WARNING! Electrical shock hazard. 120-Volts AC
is present inside the charging unit. Disconnect
power source to inverter before servicing equip-
ment.
WARNING! Immediately get away from vehicle if
you hear sounds or arching (sizzling, sputting or
popping) inside the charging unit. Hot gas may
vent from compressor terminals causing burns
or ignition. Improper servicing can lead to fire,
electrocution or explosion. Never service, repair
or troubleshoot a system unless you are a trained
service person.
