IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
The information contained in this manual is intended for use by a qualifi ed service technician who is familiar
with the safety procedures required for installation and repair, and who is equipped with the proper tools and
test instruments required to service this product.
Installation or repairs made by unqualifi ed persons can result in subjecting the unqualifi ed person making
such repairs as well as the persons being served by the equipment to hazards resulting in injury or electrical
shock which can be serious or even fatal.
Safety warnings have been placed throughout this manual to alert you to potential hazards that may be
encountered. If you install or perform service on equipment, it is your responsibility to read and obey these
warnings to guard against any bodily injury or property damage which may result to you or others.
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read
and obey all safety messages.
This is a safety Alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol with the word “WARNING”
or “CAUTION”. These words mean:
WARNING
CAUTION

• Failure to follow proper safety procedures and/or these warnings can result in serious injury or death.
REFRIGERATION SYSTEM HAZARDS:
• Use approved standard refrigerant recovering procedures and equipment to relieve pressure before
opening system for repair
• Do not allow liquid refrigerant to contact skin. Direct contact with liquid refrigerant can result in minor
to moderate injury.
.
• Be extremely careful when using an oxy-acetylene torch. Direct contact with the torch’s fl ame or hot
surfaces can cause serious burns.
• Make sure to protect personal and surrounding property with fi re proof materials.
• Have a fi re extinguisher at hand while using a torch.
• Provide adequate ventilation to vent off toxic fumes, and work with a qualifi ed assistant whenever
possible.
• Always use a pressure regulator when using dry nitrogen to test the sealed refrigeration system for
leaks, fl ushing etc.
• Make sure to follow all safety precautions and to use proper protective safety aids such as: gloves,
safety glasses, clothing etc.
• Failure to follow proper safety procedures and/or these warnings can result in serious injury or death.
MECHANICAL HAZARDS:
• Extreme care, proper judgment and all safety procedures must be followed when testing,
troubleshooting, handling, or working around unit with moving and/or rotating parts.
• Be careful when, handling and working around exposed edges and corners of sleeve, chassis, and
other unit components especially the sharp fi
ns of the indoor and outdoor coils.
• Use proper and adequate protective aids such as: gloves, clothing, safety glasses etc.
• Failure to follow proper safety procedures and/or these warnings can result in serious injury or death.

ELECTRICAL DATA
Not following the above WARNING could result in fi re or
electrically unsafe conditions which could cause moderate
or serious property damage.
Read, understand and follow the above warning.
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Turn off electric power before service or
installation.
All electrical connections and wiring MUST be
i
nstalled by a qualifi ed electrician and conform to
the National Electrical Code and all local codes
which have jurisdiction.
Failure to do so can result in personal injury or
death.
NOTICE
FIRE HAZARD
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
ALL FIELD WIRING MUST MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE (ANSI/NFPA 70)
ARTICLE 501.
THE FIELD-PROVIDED CIRCUIT PROTECTION DEVICE (HACR CIRCUIT BREAKER OR TIME DELAY FUSE)
MUST NOT EXCEED THE AMPACITY INDICATED ON THE PRODUCT NAMEPLATE.
IMPORTANT: Before you begin the actual installation of your air conditioner, check local electrical codes and the
information below.
Your air conditioner must be connected to a power supply with the same A.C. voltage and frequency (hertz) as marked
on the data plate located on the chassis. Only alternating current (A.C.), no direct current (D.C.), can be used.
An overloaded circuit will invariably cause malfunction or failure of the air conditioner therefore, it is extremely important
that the electrical power is adequate. Consult your power company if in doubt.

COMPONENT DEFINITIONS
A. Mechanical components
Plenum assembly
Diffuser with directional louvers used to direct the conditioned airfl
Blower wheel
Attaches to the indoor side of the fan motor shaft and is used for distributing unconditioned, room side air through
the heat exchanger and delivering conditioned air into the room.
Slinger fan blade
Attaches to the outdoor side of the fan motor shaft and is used to move outside air through the condenser coil, while
slinging condensate water out of the base pan and onto the condenser coil, thus lowering the temperature and
pressures within the coil.
B. Electrical components
Thermostat Control
Used to maintain the specifi ed room side comfort level.
System Switch
Used to regulate the operation of the fan motor and the compressor or to turn the unit off. For troubleshooting, refer
to the wiring diagrams and schematics in the back of this service manual.
ow.
Solid State Relay
Used to energize the compressor and fan motor. Each unit has 2, 50 amp, 208/230 volt relays.
Capacitor
Reduces line current and steadies the voltage supply, while greatly improving the torque characteristics of the fan
motor and compressor motor
.
Fan Motor
Dual shafted fan motor operates the indoor blower wheel and the condenser fan blade simultaneously. (When unit
is turned on, the fan motor runs continuously).
C. Hermetic components
Compressor
Motorized device used to compress refrigerant through the sealed system.
Low ambient bypass (hot gas bypass) valve
Used for low ambient cooling operation, the valve is connected between the discharge line at the compressor and
the
suction process tube. It responds to suction pressure, whcih when reduced in the system, causes the valve to
open and bypass hot gas from the high pressure side to the low pressure side of the system. The valve is preset
to open when the suction pressure reaches 88 psig.
Capillary tube
A cylindrical metering device used to evenly distribute the fl ow of refrigerant to the heat exchanger (evaporator
coils).
