Start-Stop Operation
Select Start-Stop mode to save fuel with automatic cycling
Start-Stop reduces fuel or power consumption by automatically shutting down and restarting the refrigeration system based on compartment temperature, battery charge condition, and engine coolant temperature (Engine Operation only). The unit turns off near setpoint and restarts when certain conditions are met.
With the system powered up (START/RUN-OFF switch in START/RUN position) or in PC mode, press the START-STOP/CONTINUOUS key until "START/STOP" is highlighted.
The message "START/STOP MODE SELECTED" will display in the MessageCenter for 10 seconds.
The operation indication in the status bar will no longer be highlighted. The unit is now in Start-Stop Operation.
In Electric Operation, if battery condition is the only reason the unit needs to operate, the compressor will stop but the battery charger will remain energized.
If "START-STOP LOCKED" displays in the MessageCenter when the key is pressed, the Start-Stop/Continuous key is locked out. Refer to Section 5.2.3 for Configuration information.
If the unit fails to start after three start attempts, alarm 00031 FAILED TO START - AUTO MODE will activate.
If the unit shuts down three consecutive times without running a minimum of 15 minutes between shutdowns, alarm 00030 FAILED TO RUN MINIMUM TIME will activate. The shutdown counter clears after the unit has run for 15 minutes.
