SYSTEM OPERATION
INFORMATION
Advice to the Customer
1. Keep the filter clean. Your system
will operate more efficiently and
provide better conditioned air.
2. Arrange your furniture and
drapes so that the supply and
return air registers and grilles are
unobstructed.
3. Close doors and windows. This
will reduce the cooling load on
your system for a more
economical operation.
4. Avoid excessive use of exhaust
fans.
5. Window shades and awnings will
reduce the cooling load.
6. Do not permit the heat generated
by television, lamps or radios to
influence the thermostat
operation.
7. Except for the mounting platform,
keep all combustible articles
2

hree feet from the unit and
t
exhaust system.
8. Unless you plan to remove
panels to service the unit, do not
disconnect the main power to
your unit. This is a safety
precaution for the protection of
he compressor. Otherwise, use
t
the thermostat switches to shut
the system off.
9. For extended periods of
inoperation, set the thermostat
system switch in the “OFF”
position and fan switch in the
AUTO” position.
“
10. Do not allow the unit to become a
play stand for children.
THERMOSTAT OPERATION
We find most air conditioning units
are installed with a single stage
heating and cooling thermostat which
includes a manual heat/cool system
switch and a manual auto/on fan
switch.
For cooling, position the system
switch to
“Auto.” If constant fan operation is
desired, place the fan switch in the
“On” position.
When heating is desired, position the
system switch to “HEAT” and place the
fan switch in the “Auto” position.
During the heating season, the
operation of the warm air furnace is
automatic. Your installing dealer has
provided a wall mounted thermostat
which is sensitive to the change in the
temperature of the air moving around
the thermostat. When the temperature
of the air within the heated space
surrounding the thermostat decreases,
the thermostat switch functions to
initiate the ignition sequence and open
the gas valve.
“Cool” and the fan switch to
he spark ignitor located on the main
T
burner tray will safely ignite the gas
(natural or LP) leaving the main burner
ports. After approximately 30 seconds
of burner operation, the blower control
will start the blower. Warm air should
now gently circulate from the supply
diffusers throughout the dwelling and
return to the furnace through return air
rille(s).
g
When the temperature of the
circulating air reaches the temperature
setting of the thermostat, the gas valve
will reclose, the heat exchanger will
cool, and the blower will shut off after
90 seconds.
In the cooling mode, the compressor
and circulation air motor are energized
upon a call for cooling. When the
thermostat is satisfied or turned to the
“OFF” position, the compressor is deenergized, but the circulation air blower
continues to operate for approximately
60 seconds to extract the residual
cooling left in the cooling coil.
We suggest that you experiment with
constant air circulation during the
heating and cooling cycles. To achieve
this style of operation, place the fan
switch on the thermostat subbase to
the “on” position. You may enjoy the
comfort associated with the continuous
air movement, constant air filtration,
and the near even temperature from
floor to ceiling.
With continuous air circulation, some
condensation on the cooling coil can
reevaporate at the end of each cycle
and cause a buildup of humidity prior
to the next cooling cycle.
SELECTION OF ROOM
TEMPERATURE
It is most important to select the
omfort temperature you desire for
c
either heating or cooling by use of the
thermostat temperature selector.
DO NOT PLAY WITH THE
THERMOSTAT. SET IT AND FORGET
IT.
If the temperature selection procedure
is new to you, ask your installing
contractor to familiarize you with the
operation of the thermostat.

5. Circulation air blower is deenergized after 60 seconds.
GENERAL INFORMATION COOLING
1. If your outdoor unit is equipped
with an optional external manual
high pressure switch reset
button, have your servicing
contractor familiarize you with its
location. Many models have
compressors equipped with
internal pressure relief valves
using an automatic reset feature
eliminating the need for an
external control. This high
pressure switch or the relief valve
will open under excessive high
pressures to protect the
compressor. Some models with
internal relief valves will require
power interruption prior to
resetting itself. The high
refrigerant pressure may be due
to a temporary condition, so if
your unit is equipped with a reset
button, you may reset it as
required. However, if the problem
persists, refer to Item 3, and/or
refer the problem to your
servicing contractor.
2. If the condenser coil is allowed to
become restricted by dirt, lint,
paper, grass clippings, leaves,
tc., the system efficiency will
e
suffer and abnormally high
refrigerant operating pressures
will result. To correct this
condition, be sure to first cut off
power to the unit and then clean
such material from the condenser
coil and cabinet. Using a garden
hose with a nozzle can be
ffective in cleaning the
e
condenser coil, but the water
should be sprayed from the
inside to outside of the coil in the
opposite direction from the
normal airflow. Disconnect the
main power before washing the
coil.
3. If you know or suspect that the
compressor s not working, you
should place the thermostat
system switch on the thermostat
subbase to the “Off” position.
This will stop the operation of the
compressor/condenser unit.
4. If you suspect that a cooling
problem has developed with your
system and before you advise
you servicing contractor, we
suggest you check the following
service hints.

ACCUMULATIONS ARE PRESENT,
DO NOT OPERATE THIS
FURNACE. INSPECT THE HEAT
EXCHANGERS FOR LEAKS.
LEAKS CAN CAUSE TOXIC
FUMES TO ENTER THE HOME
AND CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH.
4. Inspect the exhaust area inside
and outside the appliance
including the exhaust transition
piece and the exhaust hood. Be
sure that the exhaust transition
piece (inside the appliance) and
the hood are in place and are
physically sound, without holes
or excessive corrosion. If these
components have deteriorated,
have a qualified service
professional replace them using
factory specified or approved
replacement parts only.
5. Be sure that the return air duct
connections are physically sound
and are sealed to the unit.
6. Look for obvious signs of
deterioration of the unit.
7. If the unit is free of the above
conditions, replace all access
doors, except furnace access
anel, and restore electrical
p
power to the unit.
8. Make sure control box cover is in
place. Start the furnace and
observe its operation. Watch the
burner flames to see if they are
bright blue. If a suspected
alfunction is observed, or the
m
burner flames are not bright blue,
apply appropriate service.
EXAMINATION OF
INSTALLATION
1. The combustion air inlets and
combustion air outlets must be
clear and free of obstructions.
2. The return and supply duct
connections should be physically
sound and sealed where they
connect to the unit.
3. Check for obvious signs of
deterioration of the unit.
4. CONDENSATE DRAIN — Check
annually and, if necessary, clean
drain pan and drain line. See
Figures 1 and 2 for location of
drain lines. In winter, keep drain
and trap dry or protect against
freeze-up.
5. The blower compartment and
motor should be inspected and
cleaned periodically by your
qualified installer, service agency
or the gas supplier to prevent the
possibility of overheating due to
an accumulation of dust and dirt
on the windings or on the motor
exterior. And, as suggested
elsewhere in these instructions,
the air filters should be kept
clean because dirty filters can
restrict airflow and the motor
depends upon sufficient air
flowing across and through it to
keep from overheating.
6. Perform the examination
annually to insure proper
operation.
FILTER MAINTENANCE
Have your qualified installer, service
agency or the gas supplier instruct
you on how to access your filters for
regular maintenance.

1. Keep air filters clean. There are
several types of material used in
air filters and there are many
possible locations for air filters.
Consult with your contractor as to
the locations of the filters and
type of material in use.
2. How To Clean:
Glass Fiber (Throwaway) —
This is a disposable type of filter.
Inspect monthly and replace
when necessary. A new home or
building will normally require
more frequent attention to the
filters.
Aluminum Mesh — Wash with
detergent and water. Air dry
thoroughly and renew the coating
in compliance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Plastic Impregnated Fiber —
Wash with detergent and water
or vacuum clean, then reinstall.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate
