DEFROST Properly defrost your transport refrigeration unit.
CLEAN THE EQUIPMENT Especially the interior: walls, roof and
floor.
When washing the vehicle, DO NOT point the high-pres-
sure water under the skin.

with refrigerant detectors that are located in the evapora-
tor section (these detectors are identified by a sticker).
Pay special attention to these electrical detectors when
cleaning, DO NOT spray water on them.
When washing the interior, DO NOT spray the fan with
detergent.

ment size in case of partial loading.
STRIP CURTAINS To limit the flow of cold air to the outside, use
strip curtains and make sure they are not too old and with a prop-
er length down to the floor.
PRE-COOL THE BODY When possible, pre-cool the body on
standby mode to reduce noise and CO
2
emissions. Do not leave
the vehicle unattended during pre-cooling.
