checked for leaks before startup.
Leak checking is the responsibility of
the installing
connections should be checked for
leaks annually
Failure to leak check could result in
fire, explosion, or other hazardous
situations.
Make sure all gas supply lines have been
purged of air before turning on the electrical
power switch. Turn the gas valve to the on
position (see startup instructions). Turn the
main electrical power on and set the controls
to the heating mode of operation.

detected in 10 seconds, the ignition system
will recycle. If no flame is detected after 3
tries, ignition system will lockout.
Remove the call for heating. The main gas
valves should be extinguished.
The supply fans are controlled by the
ignition system. In the fan "Auto" mode the
fan comes on 45 seconds after the flame is
proved and goes off 120 seconds after the

This appliance contains a wire screen at the
vent outlet. Each heating season, prior to
placing the appliance
maintenance check that no debris or foreign
matter has accumulated in the vent outlet. A
good practice is to check for debris each
time the air filters are changed.
In the event the vent outlet becomes blocked
do not attempt to start the appliance in heat
mode until the entire vent opening is
cleared.
In the event the unit shut down because the
vent was blocked a qualified technician or
service agency should monitor the unit prior
to re-starting.
The gas burner and heat exchanger should
never require cleaning. If cleaning is
necessary, this indicates faulty operation of
the unit. Cleaning should only be done by a
qualified service agency and only after
consultation with
representative.
If induced draft blower/motor assembly has
to be replaced, care must be taken to provide
an airtight seal between the blower housing
and the burner box.
