Outdoor Unit – Owner’s Information
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Trane outdoor unit. Your outdoor unit is de­signed to work with a matched indoor unit creating a system that delivers years of depend­able service and performance.
Proper Maintenance*
Your system requires maintenance and repair by a properly trained service technician. “Do‑it‑yourself” repairs on an in‑warranty unit may void your warranty.
Other than performing the simple main tenance recommended below, you should not attempt to make any adjustments or repairs to your system. Your dealer can assist you with questions or problems.
1) Replace the air filter(s)
A clean filter saves you money by helping ensure top system efficiency.
When replacing your filter(s), always use the same size and type that was originally supplied or consult with your dealer for recommendations. Be sure to replace it with the arrows pointing in the direction of the airflow.
Where disposable filters are used, they must be replaced every month with the same size as originally supplied. Clean or replace your filter twice a month during seasons when the unit runs more often.
Ask your dealer where the filter is located in your system and how to service it.
2) Maintain free outdoor coil airflow
Efficient operation of your system depends on the free flow of air over outdoor unit’s coil.
Do not plant flowers or shrubbery right next to the unit. Also, make sure that nothing is stacked against the sides of the unit or draped over it.
Buildup of snow and ice can restrict airflow. As soon as possible after accumulation, clean snow from the area around the outdoor unit.
3) Clean the finish
To keep your system looking new for years, clean the enamel finish with soap and water. For stubborn grease spots, use a household detergent. Do not use lacquer thinner or other synthetic solvents as they may damage the finish.
4) Call your dealer for additional routine maintenance
Your system should be inspected at least once per year by a properly trained service technician.
Ask your dealer about economical service or preventative maintenance agreements that cover seasonal inspections. Optional extended warranties are also available.

CAUTIONS
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, maintenance, or use can cause explosion, fire, electrical shock, or other conditions which may cause personal injury or property damage. Consult a qualified installer or service agency for information or assistance.
If heating system is not operational during the cold weather months, provisions must be taken to prevent freeze-up of all water pipes and water receptacles. This is very important during times of vacancy.

Condensate drains should be checked and cleaned periodically to assure condensate can drain freely from coil to drain. If condensate cannot drain freely, water damage could occur.

Beginning on January 1, 2010, R‑22 refrigerant will no longer be used as a manufacturer‑installed refriger‑ ant as required by federal regulation. Following this date, depending on the availability of any remaining R‑22 equipment, outdoor unit replacement may require that the entire system be R‑410A compatible. Indoor system components and possibly connecting line sets would need to be replaced in order to be compatible with outdoor units containing R‑410A refrigerant. Expenses associated with replacing system components that are not R‑410A compatible will not be covered by the terms and conditions of the limited warranty.
The limited warranty period begins when installation is complete and the outdoor unit start‑up procedure has been properly completed, verified by installer’s invoice or similar document. If installation completion and start‑up date cannot be verified by installer’s invoice or similar document, this limited warranty coverage begins six (6) months after the date of manufacture based on the outdoor unit serial number.
This limited warranty does not apply if the outdoor unit was purchased direct (i.e. from internet websites or auctions) on an uninstalled basis. Additionally, this limited warranty will not apply unless the outdoor unit is installed and applied: (1) by a licensed or qualified HVAC technician (2) in accordance with the manufac‑ turer’s recommendations in its Installer’s Guide (3) in compliance with all industry standards, national, state, and local codes.
This limited warranty does not cover your outdoor unit if it is damaged while in your possession; including, but not limited to (1) damage caused by unreasonable use of the outdoor unit , (2) damage from failure to properly maintain the outdoor unit as set forth in the Owner’s Information document, (3) damage that is not considered a manufacturing defect, such as but not limited to acts of God, malfunctions or failures resulting from fire, water, storms, lightning, earthquake, theft, riot, misuse, abuse, increased utility usage costs, or (4) performance problems due to improper selection / equipment match, installation, or application.
This limited warranty applies to product installed on or after 5/1/2009.
THE LIMITED WARRANTY AND LIABILITY SET FORTH HEREIN ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WAR‑ RANTIES AND LIABILITIES, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN NEGLIGENCE, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN LAW OR IN FACT, INCLUDING BUT NOT SPECIFICALLY LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR USE, AND IN NO EVENT SHALL WARRANTOR BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. WARRANTOR’S MAXIMUM LIABILITY UNDER THIS WARRANTY SHALL BE LIMITED SOLELY TO THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE EQUIPMENT UNDER WARRANTY SHOWN TO BE DEFECTIVE.
Some states and provinces do not allow limitations on how long an implied limited warranty lasts or do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
