SAFETY
Your Carrier Transicold refrigeration unit has been designed with thesafety of the operator in mind. During normal operation, all movingparts are fully enclosed to help prevent injury. During all pre--tripinspections, daily inspections, and problem troubleshooting, youmay be exposed to moving parts; please stay clear of these movingparts when the unit is in operation and when the main power switchis in the Run (On) position.
The evaporator and condenser are made of finned tubes. The finscan cause injury on contact with skin. It is recommended to wearprotective gloves during all handling operations.
During operation, certain components such as the exhaust pipe,discharge outlet, and cooling circuit radiator can become extremelyhot. During routine service operations, wear protective gloves.
WARNING : When the buzzer sounds the unit will start30 seconds later.
AUTO START/STOP (OPTION FOR ELECTROMECHANICAL)
Your refrigeration unit is equipped with Auto--Start/Stop, a valuablefuel--saving feature. When the unit is set for Auto--Start/Stopoperation it may start at any time and without warning. Whenperforming any check of the refrigeration unit (e.g. checking belttension, or the oil level), make sure that the main power switch is inthe Stop position.
To ensure your unit is fitted with the START/STOP system, checkfor the presence of switch 16 (see page 25).
ENGINE COOLANT
The engine, as with all diesel engines, is equipped with apressurized cooling system. Under normal operating conditions, thecoolant in the engine and radiator is under high pressure and is veryhot. Contact with hot coolant can cause severe burns. Do notremove the cap from a hot radiator; if the cap must be removed, doso very slowly in order to release the pressure without spraying.

PRE-TRIP INSPECTION
The pre--trip inspection should be performed before picking up anyload. This inspection is essential to anticipate and help minimize thepossibility of “over--the--road” problems. These checks take only afew minutes.
1. Place the unit’s main power switch to the Stop position.
2. Fuel -- Drain any water and impurities from the sump of the re-frigeration unit fuel tank by opening the drain--cock located onthe bottom of the tank. Close the valve when only pure fuelemerges. Check the fuel level in the tank, ensuring that the fuelsupply is adequate for unit operation. Refuel if necessary.
3. Belts -- Check the belt tension by depressing the belt with yourthumb, near the center of the longest free run of each belt.Under moderate pressure each belt should deflect approxima-tely 6 mm to 13 mm (1/4 inch to 1/2 inch). If the belts deflectmore than this they should be tightened (loose belts may slip,generating heat and reducing belt life). If the belts are too tightthey should be loosened; tight belts can reduce bearing life.
4. Battery -- On units equipped with serviceable batteries, thelevel of the electrolyte in each of the cells should be checked.If the level is low, distilled water should be added to the correctlevel. Most units, however, are equipped with low or mainte-nance--free batteries; these should be inspected to ensure thatthe connections are clean and tight, and the battery hold--downshould be checked for tightness.
GB

MICROPROCESSOR CONTROLLER
5. Engine Oil -- The engine oil should be checked last, since oilhas to drain out of the block and into the oil pan to obtain acorrect reading. Remove the dip--stick (1), wipe it clean andre-insert it fully into the engine block. Once again, remove thedip--stick and observe the oil level; it should be somewherebetween the ”full” and ”add” marks. If it is below the add mark,add oil until the level is correct.
1
6. Coolant level -- Visually inspect the coolant level in thecoolantbottle (located on the upper left-hand side of the unit).
7. Over--all Unit inspection -- Visually inspect the entire unit forleaks, loose bolts, frayed, loose, or broken wires, etc. Theradiator and condenser coils of the unit should be free of dirt,bugs, cardboard, or any other debris that may obstruct airflowacross the coils. The evaporator (located inside the body)should be free of debris also, especially stretch--wrap, whichis often used during transport to prevent cargo from shifting.
8. Truck body -- The body should be inspected prior to loading.Check the door and vent seals for damage and wear. Inspectthe entire interior and exterior of the body to detect any dama-ge, including the inner and outer skins of the body. Damage tothe insulation may compromise the unit’s ability to maintain theproduct temperature by increasing the amount of heat gain inthe box.
9. Pretrip -- Initiate a pretrip by pressing the PRETRIP Key.

TEMPERATURE REGULATION
In Road mode (Engine operation)
- Down to --12�C, the box temperature is regulated in low-speedheat and low-speed cool; under --12�C, a safety cut-out preventsany possibility of heating: this means that as soon as the set-pointtemperature has been reached the unit will operate in low speedcool.
- The continuous operation of the fans even during temperatureregulation ensures a precise, uniform temperature of the cargotransported.
In Standby mode
- Temperature regulation is obtained by the unit cycling off when theset-point has been reached.

Too little belt tension cause slippage and excessive belt wear. Toomuch tension shortens belt and bearing life. Belt deflection shouldbe equal to belt thickness.
Performance Parts belts are canvas--surfaced, smooth andsynchronous.
Properly adjusted belts give long lasting and efficient service (referto maintenance schedule).
Important: During intervention on twin mounted belts, replaceIMPERATIVELY both belts and make sure they both originate fromthe same package.
(Example: replacing belts, ref. 1).

PRODUCT LOADING
Proper air circulation in the truck body, air that can move around andthrough the load, is a critical element in maintaining product qualityduring transport. If air cannot circulate completely around the load,hot spots or top--freeze can occur.
The use of pallets is highly recommended. Pallets, when loaded soair can flow freely through the pallets to return to the evaporator,help protect the product from heat passing through the floor of thetrailer. When using pallets, it is important to refrain from stackingextra boxes on the floor at the rear of the trailer, because this will cutoff the airflow.
Product stacking is another important factor in protecting theproduct. Products that generate heat, fruits and vegetables forexample, should be stacked so the air can flow through the productto remove the heat; this is called “air stacking” the product. Productsthat do not create heat, meats and frozen products, should bestacked tightly in the center of the trailer. All products should be keptaway from the sidewalls of the body, allowing air to flow between thebody and the load; this prevents heat filtering through the walls fromaffecting the product.
It is important to check the temperature of the product being loadedto ensure that it is at the correct temperature for transport. Therefrigeration unit is designed to maintain the temperature of theproduct at the temperature at which it was loaded; it was notdesigned to cool a warm product.
OPTIONS FOR INSULATED BODIES
- Mobile partition
The mobile partition must be placed at a minimum distance of4000 mm from the evaporator.
- Ducting of evaporator air outlet. Ventilation ducts mustnever be covered.
GB
49
PRODUCT LOADING
SOME ADVICE
Before loading
- Pre--cool the inside of the insulated body by lowering thetemperature for about 15 minutes.
- Remove the humidity inside the body by defrosting manually. Thiscan be done only when the inside temperature is 3�C or less.
When loading
- This is to be carried out with the unit stopped.
- It is recommended to open doors as little as possible to avoid theintake of hot air and humidity.
- Select the temperature using the thermostat in accordance withthe goods transported.
- Check the internal temperature of the goods being loaded (usinga probe thermometer).
- Take care not to obstruct the air intakes on the evaporator sectionand the ventilation ducts.
- Leave a free space of about:� 6 to 8 cm between load and frontwall,� 20 cm between the top of the load and the roof,� between the floor and the load (gratings, pallets).
- Do not forget to close the rear ventilation flaps.
- Before closing the doors, check your load once more and see thatnobody is shut inside the trailor.
