When installed as part of a Communicating System in
which the indoor unit (furnace or air handler), outdoor
unit (air conditioner or heat pump), and comfort control
are equipped with our exclusive Communicating
technology, your system performs a continuous
loop of system diagnostics and data output. The

Due to differences in electrical systems outside
the United States, customers with 50 Hz electrical
systems will need to be aware of minor differences
in the timings shown in this guide. 50 Hz timings
will appear in [brackets] following the standard 60
hz timings.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
Turn on the Trane CleanEffectsTM by pressing and releasing the POWER button. The backlit POWER and
RESET button will illuminate along with the first green
LED indicating power is present. When the indoor fan is
operating the first green LED will slowly flash. This indicates the FIELD CHARGER and COLLECTION CELLS
have power and the unit is operating normally. There is
a slight time delay between the indoor fan starting and
LED flashing.
NOTE: There is a 10 [12] minute delay after the indoor
fan operates, before the air cleaner starts to operate,
each time the power to the air cleaner is turned off/on.
Your air filtration system only operates when the air
is circulating through the indoor unit. The air filtration
system is most effective at cleaning the air if the
fan operates continuously. Most thermostats have
a setting that will permit continuous fan operation.
Continuous fan mode during Cooling operation
may not be appropriate in humid climates. If the
indoor air exceeds 60% relative humidity or simply
feels uncomfortably humid, it is recommended
that the fan only be used in the AUTO mode.
In normal operation, the whole house air cleaner may
make a slight sound as the air passes through it and
is cleaned. In some applications, you may notice this
sound coming from the return air vent(s). If desired, this
sound level can be reduced with minimal impact on air
cleaning efficiency by reducing the power setting of the
FIELD CHARGER in the SET-UP mode (see pages
9-10).
