INTRODUCTION
This guide has been prepared for the operator of Carrier Transicold’s
NeosTM 100S battery driven refrigeration units with Cab Command
controller. It contains basic instructions for the daily operation of the
refrigeration unit as well as safety information, and other information that
will help to deliver the load in the best possible condition. Please take the
time to read the information contained in this booklet and refer to it
whenever there is a question about the operation of this Carrier
Transicold truck refrigeration unit.
This refrigeration unit has been engineered to provide long, trouble-free
performance when it is properly operated and maintained. A
comprehensive maintenance program will help to ensure that the unit
continues to operate reliably. Such a maintenance program will also help
to control operating costs, increase the unit’s working life, and improve
performance.
This guide is intended as an introduction to the unit and to provide general
assistance when needed. More comprehensive information can be found
in the Operation and Service Manual for this unit, which can be obtained
from a Carrier Transicold dealer.
When having a unit serviced, be sure to specify genuine Carrier
Transicold replacement parts for the highest quality and best reliability.
At Carrier Transicold, we are continually working to improve the products
that we build for our customers. As a result, specifications may change
without notice.

UNIT IDENTIFICATION
Each unit is identified by a nameplate attached to the frame of the unit.
The nameplate identifies the complete model number of the unit, the
serial number and some other information.
If a problem occurs, please refer to the information on this plate, and
make a note of the model and serial number before calling for assistance.
This information will be needed when contacting a technician so that they
may properly assist you.
The complete nameplate is fixed on the frame and the Serial Number is
fixed on the pod.

SAFETY
WARNING
!
Use proper Lockout/Tagout procedures before inspect-
ing/servicing this unit. All unit inspection/servicing
must be performed by properly trained personnel only.
This Carrier Transicold refrigeration unit has been designed with the
safety of the operator in mind. During normal operation, all moving parts
are fully enclosed to help prevent injury. During all pre-trip inspections,
daily inspections, and problem troubleshooting, you may be exposed to
moving parts; please stay clear of all moving parts when the unit is in
operation.
WARNING
!
Beware of unannounced starting of the fans caused by
the thermostat and the start/stop cycling of the unit.
Refrigerants
The refrigerant contained in the unit refrigeration system can cause
frostbite, severe burns, or blindness when in direct contact with the skin or
eyes. For this reason, and because of legislation regarding the handling
of refrigerants during system service, we recommend that whenever the
unit requires service of the refrigeration system you contact the nearest
Carrier Transicold authorized repair facility for service.
WARNING
!
Inspect battery cables for signs of wear, abrasion or
damage at every pre trip inspection and replace if neces-
sary. Also check battery cable routing to ensure that
clamps are secure and that cables are not pinched or
chafing against any components.

UNIT OPERATION
The Neos 100S is an all-electrical unit, powered by the vehicle battery
(alternator).
After starting up the refrigeration unit by pressing the ON key, the
microprocessor manages the unit regulation according to the box
temperature needed.
The unit automatically shuts down when the engine is switched off with
the ignition key.
The unit can be completely shut down manually by pressing the OFF key
on the Cab Command.
Standby Mode
The Neos 100S is powered by a standby module reducing the 230 VAC
into 12 Vdc. The power network connection is detected by the standby
module which automatically starts up the unit in standby mode.
If the ignition key is switched ON while the unit is connected to the power
network, or if the standby plug is connected while the unit is running, a
buzzer alarm will sound indicating the double power supply and the unit
stops.
Temperature Control
As soon as the set point temperature has been reached, temperature
control is obtained by shutdown and start-up of the electro-magnetic
clutch.
The condenser and evaporator fans cut out during regulation. When
transporting fragile loads such as fresh meat, vegetables and cheese, it is
possible to program the microprocessor to obtain continuous ventilation
by the evaporator during regulation.
Defrost
Defrost operation is fully automatic but can be manually controlled.
• Defrost cycles are fully controlled by the integrated microprocessor.
• During the defrost cycle, the evaporator fan shuts down. The con-
denser fan is controlled by the microprocessor.
• Defrost cycle termination is controlled by a defrost thermostat.
• During the defrost cycle, the cab command display indicates "dF".
