There is nothing ompli ated about operating and maintaining your Thermo
King unit, but a few minutes studying this manual will be time well spent.
Performing pre-trip he ks and enroute inspe tions on a regular basis will
minimize operating problems. A regular maintenan e program will also help
to keep your unit in top operating ondition. If fa tory re ommended
pro edures are followed, you will find that you have pur hased the most
effi ient and dependable temperature ontrol system available.
All servi e requirements, major and minor, should be handled by a Thermo
King dealer for four very important reasons:
• They are equipped with the fa tory re ommended tools to perform all
servi e fun tions.
• They have fa tory trained and ertified te hni ians.
• They have genuine Thermo King repla ement parts.
• The warranty on your new unit is valid only when the repair and
repla ement of omponent parts is performed by an authorized Thermo
King dealer.
