WARNING
Electrical shock hazard. Compressor must be
grounded. Do not operate without protective
coverover terminals. Disconnect power before
removing protective cover. Discharge capacitors
before servicing unit. Failure to follow these
precautions could cause electrical shock resulting
in injury or death.
Each compressor is energized by a corresponding
compressor contactor.

IMPORTANT
Some scroll compressors have an internal vacuum
protector that will unload scrolls when suction
pressure goes below 20 psig. A hissing sound
will be heard when the compressor is running
unloaded. Protector will reset when low pressure
in system rises above 40 psig. DO NOT REPLACE
COMPRESSOR.
