SAFETY CONSIDERAT IONS
Recognize safety information. This is the safety--alert symbol
. When you see this symbol on the furnace and in instructions
or manuals, be alert to the potential for personal injury.
Understand the signal words: DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION. DANGER identifies the most serious hazards which will result in severe personal injury or death. WARNING signifies hazards which could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is used to identify unsafe practices which may result in minor personal injury or product and property damage. NOTE is used to highlight suggestions which will result in enhanced installation, reliability or operation.
To minimize the possibility of serious personal injury, fire, furnace damage, or improper operation; carefully follow these safety rules:
S Your gas furnace uses air from outside the home for
combustion and vents flue gas to the outdoors. It is not to be installed using indoor air for combustion. The vent pipe must terminate outside the structure and must not be obstructed in any way. The air--intake pipe must terminate outside the structure or in a well ventilated area that is isolated from the living space and the garage (e.g. well ventilated attic or crawlspace). Do not block or obstruct air openings on furnace or spaces around furnace.
S Do not cover the furnace, store trash or debris near it, or
in any way block the flow of fresh air to the unit.
S A furnace installed in an attic or other insulated space
must be kept free and clear of insulating material. Examine the furnace area when the furnace is installed or when insulation is added. Some materials may be combustible.
S This furnace contains SAFETY DEVICES which must
be MANUALLY RESET. If the furnace is left unattended for an extended period of time, have it checked periodically for proper operation. This precaution will prevent problems associated with no heat, such as frozen water pipes, etc. See “Before You Request a Service Call” section in this manual.

9. Open the external manual gas valve. (See Fig. 17.)
10. Set the room thermostat to a temperature slightly above the room temperature. This will automatically signal the furnace to start.
11. When the furnace receives the start signal, the inducer is started. When the pressure switch senses that there is suf-­ficient combustion air, the hot surface igniter is energized. After the hot surface igniter is heated for 17 seconds, the gas valve permits gas to flow to the main burners. After ignition and a time delay of about 30 sec, the furnace blower will start. Variable--capacity furnaces start at low speed until the control makes the necessary adjustments to operate the blower at either the low-- or high--heat speed.

NOTE: If the burners fail to ignite after 4 attempts, the furnace
control system will lock out. If lockout occurs, main burners fail to light, or blower does not come on, shut down the furnace and call your dealer for service.
12. Set your thermostat to the temperature that satisfies your comfort requirements. SUGGESTION: Setting the thermostat back a few degrees and compensating for the difference with warmer clothing can make a big difference in your fuel consumption. The few degrees at the top of your thermostat “comfort level” are the most costly degrees to obtain.
When the room temperature drops below the temperature selected on the thermostat, the furnace will switch on automatically. When the room temperature reaches the temperature selected on the thermostat, the furnace will be switched off automatically.
Some thermostats have a FAN mode with 2 selections: AUTO and ON. When set on AUTO, the furnace blower cycles on and off. In the ON mode, the furnace blower runs continuously. Continuous fan keeps the temperature level in your home more evenly balanced. It also permits the indoor air to be continuously filtered. ComfortFant, the blower speed can be increased or decreased if desired due to change of seasons, large gatherings in your home, etc. Simply change your FAN from ON to OFF for 1 to 3 seconds (or AUTO depending on your thermostat), and then return to ON. The blower will switch to the next higher speed. There are at least 3 speeds to choose from. If the blower is running on its highest speed, a request to change will direct the blower to return to its lowest speed.
Shutting Down Your Furnace
Should you ever need to shut down your furnace for service or maintenance, you will need to turn the furnace off. The following procedures must be followed:
4. Turn the switch on the gas control to the OFF position. (See Fig. 20 or 21.)

Filtering Out Trouble
!
CAUTION
UNIT PERFORMANCE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in product damage.
Never operate your furnace without a filter in place. Doing so may damage the furnace blower motor. An accumulation of dust and lint on internal parts of your furnace can cause a loss of efficiency.
A dirty air filter will cause a loss of airflow in your duct system. When excessive loss of airflow occurs, the furnace may cycle on its safety controls. If this condition is left unattended, the furnace will eventually lock out. It is recommended that the furnace air filter be checked every 3 or 4 weeks and cleaned if necessary.
If installed with factory--specified disposable media filter, check or replace filter before each heating and cooling season. Replace disposable media filter at least once a year.
The air filter is normally located in the blower compartment or in the factory--supplied filter cabinet attached to the side or bottom of the furnace casing. If air filter has been installed in another location, contact your dealer for instructions. To inspect, clean, and/or replace the air filter(s), follow these steps:
1. Turn off electrical supply to furnace. (See Fig. 19.)
