•DO NOT: Contaminate the air used for combustion of your furnace with any kind of chemical or fumes. This could also cause
heat exchangers, metal vent systems or components to deteriorate.
NOTE: These chemicals or fumes are present in many products around the home, such as: water softener salts, any type of
household cleaning product, any type of laundry product, adhesives, paints, varnishes, paint strippers, waxes and plastics, etc.
During remodeling be sure the combustion air is fresh and uncontaminated. If these compounds are burned in your furnace,
the heat exchangers and metal vent system may deteriorate.
NOTE: The qualified installer or agency must use only factory-authorized replacement parts, kits, and accessories when mod-
ifying this product.
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.
SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installing and servicing heating equipment can be hazardous due to gas and electrical components. Only trained and qualified
personnel should install, repair, or service heating equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance functions such as cleaning or replacing air filters. All other operations
must be performed by trained service personnel. Observe safety precautions in this manual, on tags, and on labels attached to
the furnace, and other safety precautions that may apply.
Recognize safety information. This is the safety-alert symbol z_. 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. These words are used with the safety-alert symbol.
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 would result in minor
personal injury or product and property damage. NOTE is used to highlight suggestions which will result in enhanced instal-
lafion, reliability or operation.
WARNING: Do not keep combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable liquids or vapors around
your furnace.
WARNING: Fire Hazard! Failure to keep insulation clear of furnace could result in fire, personal injury, or
death.
BEFORE STARTING YOUR FURNACE
Examine the furnace installation to determine that:
1. All flue gas carrying areas external to the furnace (i.e. chimney, vent connector) are clear and free of obstructions.
2. The vent connector is in place, slopes upward and is physically sound without holes or excessive corrosion.
3. Thereturn-airductconnection(s)isphysicallysound,issealedtothefunlacecasing,andterlni-
uatesoutsidethespacecontainingthefurnace.
4. Thephysicalsupportofthetunlaceissoundwithoutsaggingcracks, gaps, etc. around the base.
5. There are no obvious signs of deterioration of the funlace.
6. The pilot and burner flames are in good adjustment (by comparison with pictorial sketches or
drawings of the main burner flame and, if applicable, the pilot burner flame).
STARTING YOUR FURNACE
Your furnace uses an automatic hot surface ignition system to light the burners each time the thermostat signals the furnace
m start. Follow these important safeguards:
• Never attempt to manually light the burners with a match or other source of flame.
• Read and follow the operating instructions on the inside of main furnace door, especially the item that reads as follows:
"Wait 5 minutes to clear out any gas. Then smell for gas, including near the floor. If you smell gas, STOP! Follow "B" in the
safety information above on this label. If you don't smell gas, go to the next step."
• Ifa suspected malfunction occurs with your gas control system, such as the burners do not light when they should, refer to the
shutdown procedures on the furnace, or in the next section, m turn off your system, then call your dealer as soon as possible.
WARNING: Should the gas supply fail to shut off or if overheating occurs, shut off the gas valve to the
furnace before shutting off the electrical supply, A failure to follow this warning could result in a fire or explo-
sion, and personal injury or death,
•CHECK AIR FILTER: Before attempting to start your furnace, be sure the furnace filter is clean and in place. (See the
maintenance section of this manual.) Do not run the furnace without a filter in place. Then proceed as follows:
STEPS FOR STARTING YOUR FURNACE
1. Set your room thermostat to the lowest temperature setting. (See Fig. 5.)
2. Close the external manual gas valve. (See Fig. 6.)
5
3. Turn OFF electrical supply to the furnace. (See Fig. 7.)
6
4. Remove the outer door by loosing the thumbscrew and pulling the door forward. (See Fig. 8.)
5. Turn the control switch to OFF and wait 5 minutes to clear out any gas. (See Fig. 9) Then smell for gas, including near the
floor. If you smell gas, STOP! Follow "B" on furnace label. If you don't smell gas, go to next step.
6. After waiting 5 minutes if you still smell gas, STOP! Follow the safety information on the cover of this manual. If you do
not smell gas, go to the next step.
7. Turn the control switch m ON (See Fig. 10.)

9. Turn ON the electrical supply to the furnace. (See Fig. 12.)
10. Open the external manual gas valve. (See Fig. 13.)
11. Set the room thermostat to a temperature slightly above the room temperature. This will automatically signal the furnace to
start. The inducer motor will start, and the hot surface ignitor will energize. When hot, the ignitor will have an orange glow.
12. Alter about 32 seconds, the gas valve permits gas to flow to the main burners where it is ignited. Hot flames begin m warm
the furnace's heat exchanger. Alter a time delay of approximately 25-45 sec the furnace blower is switched on.
NOTE: If the main burners fail to ignite, the furnace control system will go through 3 more ignition cycles. Then, if burners
fail to ignite, the system will lockout. If lockout occurs, or the blower does not come on--shut down your furnace and call
your dealer for service.
13. 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 consulnp-
tion on extremely cold days. 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 setting selected on the thermostat, the furnace will be autolnatically switched off.
Continuous Fan Operation-Some thermostats have a "FAN" switch with 2 selections: AUTO and ON. When thermostat is set
on AUTO, the furnace blower cycles on and oft. controlled by the thermostat. In ON position, the furnace blower runs continuously
except for a 42-62 sec delay at the "call for heat." Continuous fan keeps the temperature level in your home more evenly balanced.
It also continuously filters the indoor air.
SHUTTING DOWN YOUR FURNACE
Should you ever suspect a malfunction in your furnace, you will need to turn the furnace off. The following procedures must
be followed:
1. Set your room thermostat to the lowest temperature setting. (See Fig. 14.)
2. Close the external manual gas valve (See Fig. 6 on page 4.)
3. Turn OFF electrical power to your furnace. (See Fig. 15.)

PERFORMING ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
With proper maintenance and care, your furnace will operate economically and dependably. Basic maintenance, which can easily
be accomplished by someone who follows the directions, is found on this and the following pages. However, before beginning
maintenance, follow these safety precautions:
WARNING: Turn off electrical power supply to your furnace before removing the access doors to service
or perform maintenance. A failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.
CAUTION: Although special care has been taken to minimize sharp edges, be extremely careful when
handling parts or reaching into the furnace.
FILTERING OUT TROUBLE
CAUTION: 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 filter will cause excessive stress on the furnace, heat exchanger, and blower motor and can cause it to overheat and
aummafically shut down. The furnace filter should be checked every 4 weeks or so and cleaned or replaced 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 twice a year.
If your furnace filter needs replacing, be sure to use the same size and type of filter that was originally specified.
The air filter for the furnace may be located in a filter cabinet attached to the side or bottom of the furnace. If air filter has
been installed in another location, contact your dealer for instructions. To inspect, clean aud/or replace the air filter(s),
follow these steps:
1. Turn off the electrical supply to the furnace. (See Fig. 7.)
2. Remove filter cabinet door.
NOTE: It may be necessary to remove 1 thumbscrew.
3. Slide air filter out of filter cabinet. Keep dirty side up (if dirty) to avoid spilling dirt.
4. Inspect the filter. If torn, replace it.
NOTE: Ifa washable filter has been replaced with:
a) Factory specified disposable media filter- Do not cleam If dirty, replace only with media filter having the same part number
and size. Install with airflow direction arrow pointing towards blower.
b) Elecmmic air cleaner (EAC) - Refer to EAC Owner's Manual for maintenance information.
5. Wash filter (if dirty) in sink, bathtub, or outside with a garden hose. Always use cold tap water. A mild liquid detergent may
be used if necessary. Spray water through filter in the opposite direction of airflow. Allow filter to dry.
6. Reinstall clean air filter.
7. Replace filter cabinet door.
8. Turn on electrical supply to furnace (See Fig 12).
NOTE: If side return ducts are used, 2 filters may be required in some models.The procedure listed above may be used to remove
side filters.

Filters may be fiekl modified by, cutting filter material and support rods (3) in fillers. Alternate sizes and additional fillers may be ordered lrom your dealer.
CAUTION: Use care when cutting support rods in filters to protect against flying pieces and sharp rod
ends. Wear safety glasses, gloves, and appropriate protective clothing. Failure to follow this caution could
result in personal injury.
COMBUSTION AREA AND VENT SYSTEM
WARNING: If holes are found or if the vent pipe is obstructed or is not connected, toxic fumes can
escape into your home. DO NOT OPERATE YOUR FURNACE. Call your dealer for service. A failure to follow
this warning could result in personal injury or death.
WARNING: For proper and safe operation the furnace needs air for combustion and ventilation. Do not
block or obstruct air openings on the furnace, air opening to the area in which the furnace is installed, and the
space around the furnace.
Inspect the Colnbustion area and vent system before each heating season. An accumulation of dirt, soot, or rust can mean a
loss of efficiency and improper performance. Buildups on the main burners can cause faulty firing. This "delayed ignition" is
characterized by an alarmingly loud sound.
NOTE: If your furnace makes a loud noise when the main burners are ignited, shut down the furnace and call your servicing
dealer.
Use your flashlight and follow these steps for inspecting the combustion area and vent system of your furnace:
1. Turn off electrical supply to the furnace and remove the access door. (See Fig. 7 and 8.)
2. Carefully inspect the gas burner for dirt, rust, or scale (See Fig. 17.) Inspect the elbow, flue connection
area, and the vent pipe for rest.
17
ACAUTION: If dirt, rust, soot, or scale accumulations are found, call your servicing dealer. DO NOT
OPERATE THE FURNACE.
3. Inspect the vent pipe for a sag, holes, or a disconnection. A horizontal vent pipe must slope upward away from furnace. If
rusty joints or seams, or signs of water leakages are found, call your dealer for service.
4. Restore electrical power to the furnace. (See Fig. 12.)
5. Start the furnace and observe its operatiom If possible, watch the burner flames. Are they burning bright blue? If not or if you
suspect some other malfunction, call your servicing dealer.
6. Replace the access door. (See Fig. 11.)
BEFORE YOU REQUEST A "SERVICE CALL"
Before you call for service, check for several easily solved problems:
•Check for sufficient airflow. Check the air tilter for dirt. Check for blocked return-air or supply-air grilles. Be sure they are
open and unobstructed. If this isn't the cause of the problem, call your servicing dealer.
If your furnace isn't operating at all, check the following list for easily solved problems:
• Is your thermostat set above room temperature'? Is the HEAT mode selected'?
• Is the electrical power supply switch on? Is the blower access door firmly in place'? Are any fuses blown? (There is a fuse on the
furnace control.) Has a circuit breaker tripped?
• Is the manual shut-off valve in the gas supply pipe leading to the furnace open? Does the lever point in the same direction that
the pipe runs (open)? Or is it at a right angle to the pipe (closed)'?
NOTE: Before proceeding with the next checks, turn off the electrical power supply m the furnace. Remove access door.
• Is the switch on the gas valve turned to the ON position? If this or the preceding check shows an interruption in the gas supply,
make sure the gas has not been shut off for safety reasons. If nothing else seems m be wrong, follow the startup procedures found
on pages 4 and 5 of this booklet.
CAUTION: If for some reason the vent is blocked, the draft safeguard switch will shut off the furnace.
(See page 2 or 3 for switch location.)The switch will automatically reset after the furnace cools off. If the
furnace fails to operate, contact a qualified service agency.
• Check the lnauual resetlimit switches located on the ends of the burner enclosures (SeeFig. 2). If the _ruace has experienced
a high-temperature condition due to inadequate combustion air, these switches will shut off the furnace. Reset the switches by
pushing the button on the switch. If the switch trips a second time, turn off the furnace and call for service.
• If your furnace still fails to operate, call your servicing dealer for troubleshooting and repairs. Tell your dealer the model and
serial numbers for your furnace. (You should have them recorded on page 8 of this booklet.) By knowing exactly which furnace
you have, the dealer may be able to offer suggestions over the phone or save valuable time through knowledgeable preparation for
the service call.
REGULAR DEALER MAINTENANCE
In addition to the type of routine maintenance you might be willing to do, your furnace should be inspected regularly by a properly
trained service technician. A semiannual inspection (or annual inspection, at least) should include the following:
1. Inspection of all flue gas passages including the burners, heat exchanger, inducer, elbow, and vent pipe.
2. Inspection of all combustion and ventilation air passages and openings.
3. Close check of all gas pipes leading to and inside of your furnace.
