MAINTAINING YOUR UNIT

All maintenance should be handled by skilled, experi enced personnel. Your dealer ean help you establish a stan dard procedure.
For your safety, keep the area around the unit clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline and other flamma ble liquids and vapors.
To assure proper functioning of the unit, the flow of com bustion and ventilating air must not be obstructed from reach ing the unit. Clearance of at least 3 ft on flue and condenser sides and 6 in. on all other sides is required.
Air Filter(s) — Air filter(s) should be checked at least
every 3 or 4 weeks and changed or cleaned whenever they become dirty. Table 1 indicates the correct filter size for
your unit. See Fig. 4 for filter access door location. To replace or inspect filters:
1. On 48DJD,DJE units, lift open the filter access door and lift and pull the filter track until it falls toward you. On 48LJD,LJE units, remove screws on filter access panel and remove panel. Lift up filter track and pull track un til it falls toward you. If the 48LJD,LJE unit has a field­installed accessory filter access door, follow instructions above for 48DJD,DJE units.
2. Remove the left filter by pulling outward from the track.
3. Slide the right filter over to the left and then remove. When installing filters, note the direction of airflow ar
rows on the filter frame. NOTE: It is recommended that filters be field installed out
side of the unit on horizontal economizer/two-position damper applications. Otherwise, the economizer/two-position damper will have to be partially removed to access the filters. The area of the field-installed filters should be equal to the area of the factory-installed filters as shown in Table 1.
If you have difficulty in locating your air filter, or if you
have questions concerning proper filter maintenance, con tact your dealer for instructions. When replacing your unit filters, always use the same size and type of filter that was originally supplied by the installer.
Units with outdoor air capability have a cleanable filter
for the outdoor air. This filter should be checked annually
and cleaned as necessary with steam or hot water and a mild detergent. Do not use disposable filters in place of cleanable filters.

A WARNING

Never operate your unit without filters in place. Fail ure to heed this warning may result in damage to the blower motor and/or compressor. An accumulation of dust and lint on internal parts of your unit can cause loss of efficiency and, in some cases, fire.

Heat Exchanger — To ensure dependable and effi
cient heating operation, the heat exchanger should be checked by a qualified maintenance person before each heating sea son, and cleaned when necessary. This checkout should not be attempted by anyone not having the required expertise and equipment to do the job properly. Checking and/or clean ing the heat exchanger involves removing the gas controls assembly and the flue collector box cover and, when com pleted, reinstalling the gas controls assembly for proper op eration. Also, the flue collector box cover must be replaced correctly so that a proper seal is maintained. Contact your dealer for the required periodic maintenance.
Fans, Belts, and Fan Motor — Periodically check
the condition of the fan wheels and housings, belt tension and fan motor shaft bearings. No lubrication of condenser or evaporator fan bearings or motors is required or recom mended.
Evaporator and Condenser Coils — Cleaning of
the coils should be done by qualified service personnel. Con tact your dealer for the required annual maintenance.
Condensate Drain — The drain pan and condensate
drain line should be checked and cleaned at the same time
the cooling coils are checked by your dealer.
Compressor — All compressors are factory shipped
with a normal charge of the correct type of refrigeration­grade oil in them and should not require additional oil.

Condenser Fan

A WARNING

Do not poke sticks, screwdrivers, or any other object into revolving fan blades. Severe bodily injury may re sult.
The fan must be kept free of all obstructions to ensure proper cooling. Contact your dealer for any required ser vice.
Electrical Controls and Wiring — Electrical con
trols are difficult to check without proper instrumentation; therefore, if there are any discrepancies in the operating cy cle, contact your dealer and request service.
Combustion Area and Vent System — The com
bustion area and vent system should be visually inspected before each heating season. The normal accumulation of dirt, soot, rust, and scale can result in loss of efficiency and improper performance if allowed to build up.

A CAUTION

If your unit makes any unusual or especially loud noises during heating, shut down the heating section and call your dealer.
See Fig. 4 and 5 and proceed as follows to inspect the
combustion area and power-venting system of your unit.

BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE,
CHECK FOR SEVERAL EASILY SOLVED
PROBLEMS
If insufficient heating or cooling is suspected: ( ) Check for sufficient airflow. Check the air filter for
dirt. Check for blocked return- or supply-air grilles. Be sure they are open and unobstructed. If these checks do not re veal the cause, call your servicing dealer.
If your unit isn’t operating at all, check the following list
for easy solutions:
( ) Check to be sure that your thermostat temperature se lector is set above the indoor temperature during the heat ing season, or below the indoor temperature during the cooling
season. Be sure the SYSTEM switch is in the proper HEAT
or COOL position and not in the OFF position.
( ) Is the electrical supply switch ON? Are any fuses blown,
or has the circuit breaker tripped?
( ) During the heating season, check the external manual
shutoff valve. Is this lever parallel with the pipe, indicating
that the valve is open? Or is the lever at the right angle,
indicating that the valve is closed? If closed, has the gas
been shut off for safety reasons? Otherwise, you may open
the valve and follow the start-up procedures listed in this
manual.
NOTE: Before proceeding with the next check, turn OFF
the electrical power supply to the unit. Remove the control
access door.
( ) During the heating season, check the control dial on the gas valve. Is it in the ON position? If it is not, be sure it has not been turned off for the purpose of safety. If noth ing else seems to be amiss, follow the start-up procedures in this manual.
( ) If your unit still fails to operate, eall your servicing dealer for troubleshooting and repairs. Specify the model and serial numbers of your unit. (Record them in this man ual in the space provided.) If the dealer knows exactly which unit you have, he may be able to offer suggestions over the phone, or save valuable time through knowledgeable prep aration for the service call.

IN CASE OF TROUBLE

If, after performing the above, unit performance is un
satisfactory, shut off the unit and call your dealer.
