WARNING
!
Unit may start automatically at any time even if the switch is

procedures: ensure the START/RUN-OFF switch is in the OFF
position, lockout/tagout the high voltage receptacle, and
lockout/tagout the negative battery connection.

Auto-Start
This unit is equipped with Auto-Start in Start-Stop and Continuous Operation.
The unit may start at any time. A buzzer will sound for five seconds before the
unit is started. When performing any check of the refrigeration unit (e.g.,
visually checking the belt, oil, or coolant), place unit in Inspect mode, unplug
the high voltage connector, and disconnect the starter solenoid connector.
Cooling System
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
coolant system; if cap must be removed, cover it with a rag and remove very
slowly in order to release the pressure without spray.
Refrigerant
The refrigerant contained in the refrigeration system of this unit 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) we recommend that you contact your nearest Carrier Transicold
authorized repair facility whenever service of the refrigerant system is
required.
Battery
This unit may be equipped with a lead-acid type battery. The battery normally
vents small amounts of flammable hydrogen gas. Do not smoke when
checking the battery. A battery explosion can cause serious physical harm
and/or blindness.
