Inspection and Service Schedules
To ensure that your Thermo King unit operates reliably and economically over its full life, and to avoid limiting its warranty cover, the appropriate inspection and service schedule must be followed. Inspection and Service intervals are determined by the number of unit operating hours and by the age of the unit. Examples are shown in the table below. Your Dealer will prepare a schedule to suit your specific needs.
| Operating Hours per Year | 1000 | 2000 | 3000 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Inspection | 6 months/ 500 hours | ||
| Inspection | 12 months/ 1000 hours (+ preventative maintenance) | 6 months/ 1000 hours | 4 months/ 1000 hours |

Service Record
Each inspection and service performed should be recorded on the Service Record Sheet found at the back of this manual.
Preventative Maintenance
Refer to the previous page for checks that should be carried out
daily/weekly on the unit. Please work with your Dealer in order to
create a maintenance schedule which fits your needs.
Thermo King has extended the limited warranty on new units from
3,000 total hours to a maximum of 4,000 compressor run hours within
the 2 year warranty period.
This limited warranty is
dependent on the owner and/ or operator adhering to the preventative
maintenance schedule as advised by your Thermo King Dealer.
