Introduction
Thank you for buying the ComfortPro auxiliary power unit and comfort system.

WARRANTY COVERAGE AND REGISTRATION


Your ComfortPro is covered by a 2 year/4000 hour warranty. Please read the warranty carefully.
Your dealer will have completed the warranty registration card, and delivered one copy to you,
and delivered one copy to Impco Ecotrans Technologies Inc. in order to register your
ComfortPro.
Make sure you have a copy of the completed and signed warranty registration card. If you
do not, contact your dealer immediately.
Important: There is no warranty coverage of the ComfortPro without registration!
Your ComfortPro is registered when the dealer sends the signed copy of the Warranty Card
Registration to Impco Ecotrans Technologies Inc.

SERVICING
Important: The warranty will be void if the ComfortPro is not serviced according to the
instructions in the ComfortPro Maintenance Schedule see page 43.

30-865-71 PAGE 1
Overview
The ComfortPro consists of an APU (auxiliary power unit), an HVAC (heating, ventilation (fan)
and air conditioning system) and a DCP (driver's control panel). The APU is a diesel powered
generator that runs using diesel fuel obtained from the truck's fuel tank. The APU provides
power to the ComfortPro HVAC and power outlet that are installed in the truck bunk.

ComfortPro Features KEY FEATURES


Provides heating or air conditioning to the truck bunk.
Provides power to run 115V appliances in the truck bunk.
Charges the truck battery. It is more efficient to charge the battery by running the
ComfortPro than by running the truck engine.
Warms the truck engine, by passing coolant that has been warmed by the APU into the engine.

LIMPING HOME FEATURE


In normal operations, the truck battery is charged by the truck engine or the APU,
whichever is running. Typically, the truck engine and APU do not run at the same time.
The exception to this occurs when the truck alternator is malfunctioning, so that the
running truck engine cannot charge the truck batteries.
In this case, the ComfortPro Battery Monitor feature will detect when the battery charge has
dropped below a specific level, and will automatically start the APU in order to charge the
battery, even though the truck engine may be running. The Battery Monitor feature thus
gives you the ability to "limp home" with a malfunctioning alternator. Remember to set up
the Battery Monitor feature, as described on page 39.

PAGE 2 30-865-71
Overview
ComfortPro Features COMFORTPRO OPTIONS
(cont.) SHORE POWER
The ComfortPro Shore Power option lets you plug your ComfortPro into standard 115VAC
electrical outlet (shore power) and use the HVAC without having to run the APU. This option
provides additional fuel savings.
For more information, contact your dealer.
MAIN ENGINE INTERLOCK
The APU is designed to be started when the truck engine is not running, that is, when you
are not driving. The main engine interlock option is available to prevent the APU from
operating when the truck engine is running. This option can be installed when the
ComfortPro is installed, or can be installed at a later date; contact your dealer.
When the main engine interlock option is installed, the only situation in which the APU
and truck engine can both be running is in order to limp home, as described on the
previous page.

NOTICE CONDENSER WINTER COVER


The winter cover protects the condenser from winter road debris such as salt and slush.
Remember to remove the winter cover
when you start using the air conditioning. To attach the cover, wrap it around the APU and secure with the hook-and-loop fasteners.
The air conditioning will not function
properly when the cover is in place.

Components
APU (Auxiliary Power Unit) The APU (Auxiliary Power Unit) is mounted on the frame rail of your truck. It consists of an
engine and belt driven generator. The engine draws fuel from your truck's fuel tank and
runs like a normal small diesel engine, independent of your truck's main engine.
The APU provides power to the CCU (see page 10). The APU is plumbed into your truck's
coolant system. In this way, when the APU is running, the APU provides heat to your truck
engine, and when the truck engine is running, the truck provides heat to the APU. The APU
is connected to the truck's batteries; it uses the batteries to start its engine and the APU
engine's alternator charges the batteries.
Simple maintenance and inspection such as checking oil level, belt tensions and general
cleanliness can be performed by removing the upper and lower access panels. Turn off the
APU, unscrew the handwheel bolts and carefully remove either access cover.

How ComfortPro Operates
The ComfortPro has two modes of operation: manual and automatic.

Manual Mode You start the APU from within the truck bunk using the On/Off button on the driver control
panel (DCP). Once the APU is running, you can start and stop the fan, heater and air
conditioning using the DCP. See page 19.
Once the heater or A/C is running, it will cycle (automatically turn on and off) in order to
keep the truck bunk at the temperature you specify. The HVAC will continue to cycle until
you turn it off. While the HVAC is cycling, the APU remains on and will only turn off when
you manually turn it off using the button on the DCP.
Note that in manual mode, the APU remains on until you turn it off. But in Comfort Monitor
mode (described below), the APU automatically turns off and on as required.
When the APU is running, power is supplied to the power outlet in the truck bunk (except
in high heat).
In manual mode, the APU will turn off automatically if the Maximum Run Time is reached.

30-865-71 PAGE 13
How ComfortPro Operates
The ComfortPro has several functions that will start it in automatic mode

Automatic Mode FEATURE DESCRIPTION


Comfort Monitor Comfort Monitor is intended to maintain the truck cabin temperature
(page 27) at a desired set point by cycling both the APU and HVAC on and off as
required. While operating in Comfort Monitor mode, the HVAC will
only operate at high output settings, i.e. either High Heat or High A/C.

MENU ITEMS AND PASSWORD PROTECTION


Comfort Monitor is one of the main items in the DCP/DCP2 menu
tree and may be password protected independently of the other main
menu items. Within the Comfort Monitor menu, three settings are
available:
ON/OFF: Allows the user to enable or disable the Comfort Monitor
feature.
Note: Comfort Monitor Mode and Manual APU operation are
mutually exclusive, i.e.
An ON setting enables CM mode & disables Manual APU operation.
An OFF setting disables CM mode & enables Manual APU operation.

SET DURATION: Allows the user to set the maximum session time
that the APU can remain in Comfort Monitor mode. The duration
timer may be set between 0.0 HRS to 24.0 HRS in increments of
0.5 HRS.
Note: A duration setting of 0.0 HRS will restore the earlier Comfort
Monitor functionality. In this configuration, Comfort Monitor cannot
be de-activated by the operator. Comfort Monitor can only be enabled
via the menu settings (typically subject to password protection).

PAGE 14 30-865-71
How ComfortPro Operates
Automatic Mode (cont.) FEATURE DESCRIPTION
Comfort Monitor Specifically: The operator cannot activate / de-activate Comfort
Cont. Monitor using the ON/OFF key (see below). The CM icon stays
(page 27) visible on the display.
When used with an engine interlock, Comfort Monitor operation
will automatically re-activate when the main engine is turned off.
The CM icon disappears while the main engine is running.
The operator has the ability to enter and exit manual mode.

SET TEMP:
Allows the user to set the desired ambient temperature in the
range from 18C (64F) to 30C (86F).

COMFORT MONITOR OPERATION

APU ON/OFF key


With Comfort Monitor enabled and its duration timer set to a non-
zero value in the menu, the APU ON/OFF key may be used to
activate / de-activate Comfort Monitor mode.

Duration Timer
The Comfort Monitor session duration timer begins counting
down from its set value each time that Comfort Monitor mode is
activated via the APU ON/OFF key. When the timer has elapsed,
Comfort Monitor mode will de-activate. The driver may re-activate

30-865-71 PAGE 15
How ComfortPro Operates
Automatic Mode (cont.) FEATURE DESCRIPTION
Comfort Monitor Comfort Monitor for a new session if desired by pressing the APU
Cont. ON/OFF key.
(page 27) Note: The intent is that the driver should de-activate Comfort
Monitor when leaving the truck for a period of time in which
comfort monitor is not required. If Comfort Monitor is not
manually de-activated, it will continue to operate until the
duration timer has expired.
Other Control Panel Keys
The MENU, ESC/RESET and ARROW keys may continue to be used
for accessing and navigating the menu. The balance of front panel
keys, including HVAC OFF, A/C, FAN, and HEAT, have no associated
functionality while the system operates in Comfort Monitor.
Additionally the ARROW Keys may not be used to adjust the
temperature set point.

APU Interlock
This applies only to APUs equipped with main engine interlocks. If
the APU has Comfort Monitor enabled, and the main engine interlock
activates to signal that the main engine has started and is running,
then Comfort Monitor will be de-activated. Additionally, Comfort
Monitor cannot be activated with an active engine interlock.
If desired, the driver may re-activate Comfort Monitor for a new
session by pressing the APU ON/OFF key, but only after the main
engine interlock has de-activated, i.e. the main engine has shut off.

PAGE 16 30-865-71
How ComfortPro Operates
Automatic Mode (cont.) FEATURE DESCRIPTION
Comfort Monitor Other Automatic Modes
Cont. If enabled in the menu, other automatic modes may become active
(page 27)
while the APU operates in Comfort Monitor mode. Activation of any
of the other automatic modes will temporarily override Comfort
Monitor, however APU operation will return to Comfort Monitor
mode if all automatic mode duration timers have expired but the
Comfort Monitor duration timer has not expired.

Timer At the specified time, the APU and HVAC automatically turn on.
(page 30) During the specified timer duration, the HVAC cycles on and off to
maintain the desired temperature. When the timer duration expires,
both the APU and HVAC turn off automatically and remain off.

Temp Start The APU and heater on the HVAC automatically turn on in order to
(page 34) prevent the APU engine and truck engine from getting too cold.
(Turning on the heater creates a load that makes the APU work
harder and therefore warm up faster). Both the APU and HVAC
turn off automatically after the specified time.

Battery Monitor The APU automatically turns on for 90 minutes in order to


(page 39) recharge the batteries. The HVAC does not turn on.

30-865-71 PAGE 17
How ComfortPro Operates
Automatic Mode (cont.) There are icons on the DCP that flash when the APU and HVAC are running. See page 11. If
you enter the truck bunk and APU or HVAC is on but you did not start it, you can assume it
has started in one of the automatic modes, as described above. On the DCP, one icon will
be flashing steadily: this is the icon for the mode that is currently operating.
Whenever the ComfortPro is running in an automatic mode, (except for Comfort Monitor
mode), if you then press the heat, A/C or fan buttons on the DCP, the ComfortPro will switch
to manual mode. The APU will not automatically turn off! This icon on the DCP will also
stop flashing. When the ComfortPro is operating in Comfort Monitor mode manual APU
operation is locked out.
AUTOMATIC MODE AND MINIMUM TIME OFF
All these automatic functions work on a "minimum time off": the ComfortPro must be off for
at least 10 minutes before the automatic function will turn it on again. For example, the
Timer function may be set to turn on the ComfortPro at 10:00 a.m. You have been running
the ComfortPro in manual mode. You turn off the ComfortPro at 9:55 a.m. The timer will
only turn on the ComfortPro again 10 minutes later, at 10:05 a.m.

Other Functions CLOCK


In order to use the Timer correctly, you must set the DCP clock. See page 26.
MAXIMUM RUN TIME
You can set the maximum time that the APU is allowed to continuously run in manual
mode. See page 37.
PASSWORD PROTECTION
You can add a password to the DCP, then you can protect one or more functions so that
only a person who knows the password can set the function. See page 23.
