IMPORTANT: If you are operating the chiller for the first time since installation, you should perform an Auto Tune after two hours of nor- mal operation. You should perform the Auto Tune peri- odically to ensure that the control correctly calculates how much heat and cooling should be applied to main- tain the process setpoint.

See PERFORMING AN AUTO TUNE.

Before starting the chiller, verify that the system has been installed correctly for your application. See the INSTALLATION section. If Passcode Protection has been enabled, you must enter the correct passcode before you can change or enter any of the operating parameters, including the setpoint.
