OPERATING YOUR UNIT
The operation of your system is controlled by the indoor tempera-
ture control (Thermostat). You simply adjust the thermostat and it
maintains the indoor temperature at the level you select. Most
thermostats of heating and cooling systems have 3 controls: a
temperature control selector, a FAN control, and a SYSTEM or
MODE control. Refer to your thermostat owner's manual for more
information.
To better protect your investment and to eliminate unnecessary
service calls, familiarize yourself with the following facts:
COOLING MODE
With the SYSTEM or MODE control set to COOL, your unit will
run in cooling mode until the indoor temperature is lowered to the
level you have selected, On extremely hot days, your unit will run
for longer periods at a time and have shorter "off" periods than on
moderate days.
GAS HEAT MODE
With the SYSTEM or MODE control of your indoor thermostat set
to HEAT, your unit will run in gas heating mode until the indoor
temperature is raised to the level you have selected. On cold days
and nights, your system will typically run for longer periods of
time and have shorter "off' periods than on moderate days. This is
the same as the COOLING MODE.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
This section discusses maintenance that should be performed on
your system. Most maintenance should be performed by your
dealer. You. as the owner, may wish to handle some minor
maintenance for your new unit.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE FOR THE EQUIPMENT
OWNER
Before proceeding with those things you might want to maintain
yourself, please carefully consider the following:
FIRE, EXPLOSION, ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury,
death and/or property damage.
TURN OFF ALL ELECTRICAL POWER TO YOUR UNIT
AND INSTALL LOCK-OUT TAG BEFORE SERVICING
OR PERFORMING MAINTENANCE.
CUT HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution could result in personal injury.
When removing access panels or performing maintenance
functions inside your unit, be aware of sharp sheet metal parts
and screws. Although special care is taken to keep sharp
edges to a minimum, be extremely careful when handling
parts or reaching into the unit. Wear safety glasses, gloves,
and appropriate protective clothing.
AIR FILTERS
The air filter(s) should be checked at least every 3 months and
changed or cleaned whenever it becomes dirty. Dirty filters
produce excessive stress on the blower motor and can cause the
motor to overheat and shut down. Table I indicates the correct
filter size for your unit. Refer to Fig. 6 to access the filters.
To replace or inspect filters (or accessory filter rack when
supplied):
1. Remove the filter access panel using a 5/16-in. nut driver.
2. Remove the filter(s) by pulling it out of the unit. If the filter(s)
is dirty, clean or replace with a new one.
When installing the new filter(s), note the direction of the airflow"
arrow's on the filter frame.
If you have difl'iculty locating your air filter(s) or have questions
concerning proper filter maintenance, contact your dealer for
instructions. When replacing filters, ahvays use the same size and
type of filter that was supplied, originally, by the installer.
