PRETRIP TEST CONSIDERATIONS
When performing a Pretrip Test, the following
issues should be considered.
• If running a Pretrip Test on a truck or trailer
loaded with dry cargo, insure that proper
airflow can occur around the load. If the
load restricts airflow, false test results may
occur. Also, TSR-3 units have high
refrigeration capacity which results in rapid
temperature changes. Sensitive dry cargo
may be damaged as a result.
• If running a Pretrip Test on a truck or trailer
that has just been washed down, the
extremely high humidity inside the truck or
trailer may result in false test results.
• If running a Pretrip Test on a truck or trailer
loaded with sensitive cargo, monitor the load
temperature during the test as normal
temperature control is suspended during a
Pretrip Test.
• Always perform Pretrip Tests with the truck
or trailer cargo doors closed to prevent false
test failures.
PERFORMING A PRETRIP TEST
If a Pretrip Test is initiated with the engine shut
down a Full Pretrip Test will be performed. If a
Pretrip Test is initiated with the engine or motor
running a Running Pretrip Test is performed.
• Before initiating a Pretrip Test, clear all
alarm codes.
• To stop a Pretrip Test at any time, turn the
unit off. Alarm Code 28 Pretrip Abort will
be set. Other alarms may also be set,
depending upon test in progress when the
test was terminated.
Pretrip Tests are initiated using the Pretrip
Menu. From the Standard Display, press the
MENU key. (Figure "Menu Key" page 29)
The Language Menu or Alarm Menu will
appear. Press the NEXT key as required to
display the Pretrip Menu. When the Pretrip
Menu is shown press the SELECT key.

If the unit is not running a Full Pretrip Test will
be initiated. If the unit is running in either
diesel or electric mode a Running Pretrip will
be performed.
Running Pretrip
If all alarms were not cleared a prompt appears
as shown. Exit the Pretrip Test, clear all alarms
and restart the Pretrip Test.
