SECTION IX: INSTRUCTING THE OWNER

Assist owner with processing warranty cards and/or online registration. Review Owners Guide and provide a copy to the owner and guidance on proper operation and maintenance. Instruct the owner or the opera- tor how to start, stop and adjust temperature setting.

When applicable, instruct the owner that the compressor is equipped with a crankcase heater to prevent the migration of refrigerant to the compressor during the “OFF” cycle. The heater is energized only when the unit is not running. If the main switch is disconnected for long peri- ods of shut down, do not attempt to start the unit until 8 hours after the switch has been connected. This will allow sufficient time for all liquid refrigerant to be driven out of the compressor.

The installer should also instruct the owner on proper operation and maintenance of all other system components.

MAINTENANCE

1.Dirt should not be allowed to accumulate on the outdoor coils or other parts in the air circuit. Clean as often as necessary to keep the unit clean. Use a brush, vacuum cleaner attachment, or other suitable means.

2.The outdoor fan motor is permanently lubricated and does not require periodic oiling.

3.If the coil needs to be cleaned, use clean water to wash dust, dirt, and debris from outdoor condensing coil.

NOTICE

DO NOT use coil cleaners to clean outdoor condensing coil. cleaners containing HF-, hydroxides, chlorides, and sulfates can greatly reduce the lifetime of the aluminum condensing coil.

4.Refer to the furnace or air handler instructions for filter and blower motor maintenance.

5.The indoor coil and drain pan should be inspected and cleaned reg- ularly to prevent odors and assure proper drainage.

IT IS UNLAWFUL TO KNOWINGLY VENT, RELEASE OR DIS- CHARGE REFRIGERANT INTO THE OPEN AIR DURING REPAIR, SERVICE, MAINTENANCE OR THE FINAL DISPOSAL OF THIS UNIT.

WHEN THE SYSTEM IS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY AND THE OWNER HAS BEEN FULLY INSTRUCTED, SECURE THE OWNER’S APPROVAL.
