SafetyRules

Your unit is built to provide many years of safe and de-
pendable service providing it is properly installed and

maintained. However, abuse and/or improper use can
shorten the life of the unit and create hazards for you, the
owner.

A. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission

recommends that users of gas-burning appliances
install carbon monoxide detectors. There can be

various sources of carbon monoxide in a building or
dwelling. The sources could be gas-fired clothes
dryers, gas cooking stoves, water heaters, furnaces,
gas-fired fireplaces, wood fireplaces, and several

other items. Carbon monoxide can cause serious
bodily injury and/or death. Therefore, to help alert

people of potentially dangerous carbon monoxide
levels, you should have carbon monoxide detectors

listed by a nationally recognized agency (e.g. Un-
derwriters Laboratories or International Approval

Services) installed and maintained inthe building or
dwelling (see Note below).

B. There can be numerous sources of fire or smoke in a

building or dwelling. Fire or smoke can cause seri-
ous bodily injury, death, and/or property damage.
Therefore, in order to alert people of potentially dan-
gerous fire or smoke, you should have fire and
smoke detectors listed by Underwriters Laborato-
ries installed and maintained in the building or dwell-

ing (see Note below).

Note: The manufacturer of your furnace does not test any

detectors and makes no representations regarding
any brand or type of detector.

C. To ensure safe and efficient operation of your unit,

you should do the the following:

Thoroughly read this manual and labels on the

unit. This will help you understand how your unit op-

erates and the hazards involved with gas and elec-
tricity.

2.

Do not use this unit if any part has been under

water. Immediately call a qualified service techni-

cian to inspect the unit and to replace any part of the
control system and any gas control which has been

under water.

3. Never obstruct the vent grilles, or any ducts that
provide air to the unit. Air must be provided for

proper combustion and ventilation of flue gases.

4. Familiarize yourself with the possible air starva-

tion signals. These are outlined in the Combustion
Air section.

10.

Check the combustion air supply. Some models
use air drawn from outside. Other models and other

appliances use combustion air from inside the struc-
ture. Air starvation signals are listed in section titled

"Combustion Air". If any of the signals are noticed,

perform a combustion air check as shown in section

titled "Combustion Air Checks" or call a service tech-

nician. If you add weather stripping, storm windows,
insulation, an additional fuel burning appliance, or
remodel the structure, a combustion air check

MUST be accomplished after the addition.
Maintain safety and service clearances from the

unit. These are listed on the Rating Plate on the unit

and in the "Installation Manual". Keep the unit area
clean and free of combustible materials at all times.

Never store gasoline, paint, aerosol cans, waxes,
bleaches, dry cleaning fluid or items such as paper

or rags near the unit.

Familiarize yourself with all controls. Make sure

you know how to shut off the gas and the electrical

power to the unit. If the unit isto be shut down for an

extended length of time (example; remodeling proj-
ect), turn off both the gas and the electrical power.

For safety, always turn them off before performing

service or maintenance on the unit.

Establish a regular service and maintenance

schedule. This will ensure efficient and safe opera-

tion of the unit. It is recommended that you have a
qualified service agency perform a complete check

on the unit before each heating season. See unit

Maintenance "Service Technician Checks".
Inspect insulation. Insulation is combustible. If

your furnace islocated inan attic or other space near

insulation, periodically inspect to insure space

around furnace is free and clear of insulating materi-
al. If furnace is newly installed, make a through

check around furnace. If adding insulation to a
space with a furnace, also check that furnace is free

and clear of insulating material.

Keep air openings clear. Do not block any air

openings on the furnace, openings connecting to
furnace area, and spaces around the furnace.
