1.2 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Your Carrier Transicold refrigeration unit has been
designed with the safety of the operator in mind. Dur-
ing normal operation, all moving parts are fully en-
closed to help prevent injury. During all pre-trip inspec-
tions, 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
and when the unit Start/Run-Off switch is in the
START/RUN position.
CAUTION
Under no circumstances should anyone at-
tempt to repair the Logic or Display
Boards. Should a problem develop with
these components, contact your nearest
Carrier Transicold dealer for replacement.
CAUTION
Under no circumstances should a techni-
cian electrically probe the processor at any
point, other than the connector terminals
where the harness attaches. Microproces-
sor components operate at different volt-
age levels and at extremely low current
levels. Improper use of voltmeters, jumper
wires, continuity testers, etc. could perma-
nently damage the processor.
CAUTION
Most electronic components are suscepti-
ble to damage caused by electrical static
discharge (ESD). In certain cases, the hu-
man body can have enough static electrici-
ty to cause resultant damage to the com-
ponents by touch. This is especially true of
the integrated circuits found on the
truck/trailer microprocessor.
Auto-Start
Your refrigeration unit is equipped with Auto-Start in
both Start-Stop and Continuous Run Operation. The
unit may start at any time when the Start/Run-Off
Switch (SROS) is in the Start/Run position. A buzzer
will sound for 5 seconds before the unit is started.
When performing any check of the refrigeration unit
(e.g., checking the belts, checking the oil), make cer-
tain that the SROS is in the OFF position.
Engine Coolant
The engine is equipped with a pressurized cooling
system, including a pressurized coolant bottle. Under
normal operating conditions, the coolant in the engine
and radiator is under high pressure and is very hot.
Contact with hot coolant can cause severe burns. Do
not remove the cap from a hot radiator or bottle. If the
cap must be removed, cover it with a rag and remove
it very slowly in order to release the pressure without
spray.
Refrigerant
The refrigerant contained in the refrigeration system of
your unit can cause frostbite, severe burns, or blind-
ness 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 your unit requires service
of the refrigeration system you contact your nearest
Carrier Transicold authorized repair facility for service.
Battery
This unit is equipped with a lead-acid type battery. The
battery normally vents small amounts of flammable
hydrogen gas. Do not smoke when checking the bat-
tery. A battery explosion can cause serious physical
harm and/or blindness.
1.3 SPECIFIC WARNING AND CAUTION
STATEMENTS
To help identify the label hazards on the unit and ex-
plain the level of awareness each one carries, an ex-
planation is given with the appropriate consequences:
DANGER - warns against an immediate hazard which
WILL result in severe personal injury or death.
WARNING - warns against hazards or unsafe condi-
tions which COULD result in severe personal injury or
death.
CAUTION - warns against potential hazard or unsafe
practice which could result in minor personal injury, or
product or property damage.
The following statements are specifically applicable to
this refrigeration unit and appear elsewhere in this
manual. These recommended precautions must be
understood and applied during operation and mainte-
nance of the equipment covered herein.

62-61753-21
1-4
WARNING
LogiCOLD microprocessor equipped units
may start automatically at any time the
START/RUN-OFF switch (SROS) is not in
the OFF position. Also, the unit may be fit-
ted with two way communication equip-
ment that will allow stating of the unit from
a remote location even though the SROS is
in the off position.
WARNING
Be aware of HIGH VOLTAGE supplied at
the power plug or from the generator.
When performing service or maintenance
procedures: ensure any two way commu-
nication is disabled in accordance with the
manufacturers instruction, ensure the
START/RUN-OFF switch is in the OFF posi-
tion and, whenever practical, disconnect
the high voltage source and disconnect the
negative battery connection. NEVER dis-
assemble the generator: HIGH MAGNETIC
FIELD INSIDE! This field can interfere with
cardiac implants such as pacemakers and
defibrillators.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should ether or
any other starting aids be used to start en-
gine.
WARNING
Ensure the power plug is clean and dry be-
fore connecting to any electrical out-
let/receptacle. Do not connect to any elec-
trical outlet without checking that it meets
the 380/3/50 and 16 Amp electrical re-
quirements of the unit.
WARNING
Always place SROS in the OFF position
and turn off the high voltage power supply
before disconnecting the high voltage
power plug from the unit.
WARNING
If the unit is in Standby Operation and
powered, voltage will be applied to high
voltage components (i.e. the fan motor
contactor) and those components will op-
erate (i.e. the fan blades will turn) when
those components are energized using
component test mode.
WARNING
Do not remove the cap from a hot radiator;
if the cap must be removed, do so very
slowly in order to release the pressure
without spray.
WARNING
Inspect battery cables for signs of wear,
abrasion or damage at every Pretrip in-
spection and replace if necessary. Also
check battery cable routing to ensure that
clamps are secure and that cables are not
pinched or chafing against any compo-
nents.
WARNING
Use the required protective eye wear and
clothing when working with solvents.
WARNING
Beware of moving poly V-Belt and belt
driven components.
WARNING
When working with belts, beware of pinch
points.
WARNING
The +5.0 VDC (terminal B) is common be-
tween the Compressor Discharge Pressure
Transducer, the Compressor Suction Pres-
sure Transducer, and the RPM sensor. If
this circuit is shorted to ground (due to one
of the mentioned components being defec-
tive, or a worn wire) the MessageCenter will
show
Suction Pressure: -1 bar (-14.7 psig)
Discharge Pressure: 0 bar/psig
Engine RPM: 0.
WARNING
Before removal of the compressor, relieve
the internal pressure by very carefully
loosening the couplings to break the seal.

WARNING
Do not use a nitrogen cylinder without
a pressure regulator. Cylinder pressure
is approximately 159.9 bar (2350 psig).
Do not use oxygen in or near a refrigerant
system as an explosion may occur. (See
Figure 8-19)
WARNING
High voltage (dielectric) testing must not
be performed on the machine without first
observing NEMA rules. The insulation of
this generator winding may be safely
checked by using a megohm meter. A high
reading indicates good insulation.
WARNING
Generators of this type should not be
"flashed". Operation with external voltage
source or momentary shorting of leads will
damage the generator and may cause inju-
ry.
CAUTION
Under no circumstances should anyone at-
tempt to repair the Logic or Display
Boards. Should a problem develop with
these components, contact your near-
est Carrier Transicold dealer for replace-
ment.
CAUTION
Service Mode MUST be used whenever re-
moving refrigerant charge, refrigerant leak
checking or evacuating.
CAUTION
The display and MessageCenter may be-
have differently during the software load-
ing process, depending on the version of
software currently in the controller. DO
NOT INTERRUPT THE SOFTWARE IN-
STALLATION PROCESS ONCE IT HAS
STARTED.
CAUTION
Unit uses R-404A OR R-452A and POE oil.
The use of inert gas brazing procedures is
mandatory for all Carrier Transicold refrig-
eration units; otherwise compressor failure
will occur. For more information Refer to
Technical Procedure 98-60068-00 Inert Gas
Brazing
CAUTION
When changing oil filter, the new filter
should be primed (partially filled)
with clean oil if possible. If the filter is
not primed, the engine may operate for
a period with no oil supplied to the bear-
ings.
CAUTION
Use only monopropylene glycol anti-freeze
as glycol by itself will damage the cooling
system. Always add pre-mixed 50/50 anti-
freeze and water to radiator/engine. Never
exceed more than a 60% concentration of
anti-freeze. Use a low silicate anti-freeze.
CAUTION
The mica shim must be used during disas-
sembly of the generator from the engine.
Never attempt to remove the rotor from the
stator. Leave the shim in place until the
generator is re-installed on the engine.
CAUTION
NEVER POUR COLD WATER INTO A HOT
ENGINE, however hot water can always be
added to a cold engine.
CAUTION
Only a refrigerant drum containing R-404A
or R-452A should be connected to this re-
frigeration unit in order to pressurize the
system. However, dry nitrogen may be
used to increase pressure. Any other gas
or vapor will contaminate the system and
require additional purging and evacuation.

1.4 SPECIFIC R-452A REFRIGERANT WARNING
AND CAUTION
WARNING
R-452A is an A1 non-flammable refrigerant
blend; however certain of its constituents
are considered A2L midly flammable.
For this raison, it is imperative that the sys-
tem of a vector unit utilizing R-452A refrig-
erant be reclaim to a sufficient vaccum to
ensure all residual refrigerant is removed
from the system
Follow the R-452A refrigerant reclaim / re-
covery procedure before performing any
“Hot work” including but not limited to
brazing or welding on a unit that has been
charged with R-452A, to prevent flare up of
residual A2L refrigerant constituents
Refrigerant must be reclaimed until equip-
ment gauge indicates 20 inHG (-0.6bar) of
vacuum.
Refer to Section 8.5.2Removing The R-
452A Refrigerant Charge
Refer to the Service Bulletin SB06-16 for
additional information
CAUTION
As distinct of R404A refrigerant, R-452A
has slidding properties more important and
not negligeable between vapour state and
liquid state.
For a given temperature, the liquid state
pressure value and the vapour state pres-
sure value, of the R-452A refrigerant are
differents.
Refer to section 10 for Temperature pres-
sure chart
