Cautions, Warnings and Notices
Important: Environmental Concerns! Scientific research hasshown
that certainman-made chemicals can affectthe earth's naturallyoccurring
stratospheric ozone layer whenreleased to the atmosphere. In particular,
several of the identified chemicals that may affectthe ozone layer are
refrigerants that contain Chlorine, Fluorineand Carbon (CFCs) and those
containing Hydrogen, Chlorine, Fluorine andCarbon (HCFCs). Not all
refrigerants containing these compoundshave the same potential impact
to the environment.Trane advocatesthe responsible handling of all
refrigerants-including industry replacements forCFCs such as HCFCs and
HFCs.
Important: Responsible Refrigerant Practices!Trane believes that
responsible refrigerant practices are importantto the environment, our
customers, and the air conditioningindustry. All technicians who handle
refrigerants must be certified.The Federal CleanAir Act (Section 608) sets
forththe requirementsfor handling,reclaiming, recoveringand recyclingof
certain refrigerants and theequipment that is used in these service
procedures. Inaddition, some statesor municipalities mayhave additional
requirements thatmust also beadhered to forresponsible managementof
refrigerants. Know the applicable lawsand follow them.

Thermostat
Room thermostats are delicatetemperature sensing controls. Theirmain
function is to energizeand de-energize the heating or cooling circuit to
maintain the temperature settingyou select.
Manythermostats containa roomthermometer toindicate theapproximate
room temperature and atemperature scale at the adjustment indicator to
select the desired indoor airtemperature. In addition, most thermostats
have a selector mode switch with Heat, Offand Cool positions and a fan
switch with Onand Off positions.
When theswitch is positioned atOff your unitwill not operate ineither the
heat or cool modes. Ifthe selector switch is set at Heatthe unit will
automatically cycleon and offto maintain thedesired temperature setting.
The unit will also operateautomatically when the selector switch is
positioned at Cool.
The fanselector switch canbe used to operatethe indoor fancontinuously
by positioning it at On.When set to Autothe fan will only operate when
required during the heating orcooling cycles.
Toensure that the thermostat operates properly, it mustbe level and
positioned to avoid theinfluence of such external heat sources as lamps,
televisions or other heat producingappliances.
Air Filters
Filters are tobe used with this unit. Unitsship from the factory withfilters
installed.
It isvery important tok eepthe central ductsystem air filters clean.Be sure
to inspect them at leastonce each month when the system isin constant
operation. (Innew homes,check thefilters every weekfor thefirst 4 weeks.)
See Table 1for the required filter size(s).
If youhave disposabletype filters,replace themwith newfilters of thesame
type and size. Donot attempt to clean disposable filters.
Permanent type filters canbe cleaned by washing them with a mild
detergent and water.Ensure that the filters are thoroughly dry before
reinstalling them in the unit(or duct system).
It maybe necessaryto replace permanentfilters annuallyif washing failsto
clean the filter,be sure to use the same type and sizeas was originally

Heating System
Heating Cycle Operation
Yourunit's heating system hasa solid-state electronic ignitioncontrol that
lights thefurnace burnerseach timethe thermostatcalls forheat. Atthe end
of each heatingcycle the furnace burners are extinguished.This type of
system is called Direct SparkIgnition (DSI).
A normal heating cyclebegins when the air temperature drops below the
thermostat setting.The thermostat then energizes theheating electrical
circuit thatstarts andcontrols thefurnace burners.Shortly afterthe burners
ignite theindoor fanstarts and circulateswarm airthrough the conditioned
space.
When theair temperature risesto the thermostatsetting thethermostat de-
energizes the heating electricalcircuit, which in turn extinguishes the
burners.The indoor fan continues to circulate warm airuntil most of the
heat is removed fromthe unit's combustion chamber.
Safety Controls
• Your unit is equipped with anautomatic reset safety limit control to
prevent overheating.When this control opens, it shuts down the
heating electrical circuit until theunit cools down sufficiently.
Inadequate airflow (i.e., caused bydirty filters or defective fan motor)
maycause theunit tocycle onand offas thelimit tripsand automatically
resets. If you suspect thatthe unit is cycling on its limit control,
immediately contact a service personfor instructions.
• If flames from the burner are not properly drawninto the heat
exchanger, aFlame Rollout Protection Control will open causing the
furnace to shut off.The cause mustbe investigated by a qualified
service person.
• If installed, the condensate overflow switch willshut down the unit
before a drain pan overflowoccurs.
