Furnace - Jayco COVE 2002 Owner's Manual

FURNACE

Preventive maintenance and safety checks should be performed by a qualified technician once a
year, or more, depending on the use of the furnace. Failure to properly maintain the furnace may
void the furnace warranty and can result in unsafe furnace operation. Preventive maintenance is
NOT covered under the warranty. Power should be disconnected before servicing.
NOTE: To increase motor life, the furnace should be wired directly to the battery.
I
WARNING: If the user of this appliance fails to maintain it in the condition in which
it was shipped from the factory or if the appliance is not used solely for its intended
purpose or if appliance is not maintained in accordance with the instructions in this
manual, then the risk of a fire and/or the production of carbon monoxide exists which
can cause personal injury, property damage or loss of life.
#
CAUTION: Label all wires before disconnecting for servicing. Proper polarity must be
observed so the furnace motor will run with the proper direction of rotation to insure correct
air delivery.
#
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors
can cause improper and dangerous furnace operation.
You, as the owner/user, should insect the furnace monthly during the heating season for presence of
soot on vent. Operating the furnace under this condition could lead to serious property damage,
personal injury or loss of life. If soot is observed on the vent, immediately shut furnace down and
contact a qualified service agency.
Listed below are several safety related items that you should follow during the heating season to
assure continued safe operation of the furnace.
1. Inspect furnace venting. Venting must be free of obstructions, void of soot and properly
terminated to the atmosphere. (Refer to installation manual.)
I
WARNING: Do not install screens over the vent for any reason. Screens will become
restricted and cause unsafe furnace operation. Accessories are being marketed for
RV products which the manufacturer does not recommend. For your safety, only
factor authorized parts are to be used on your furnace.
2. Periodically inspect the vent for obstructions or presence of soot. Soot is formed whenever
combustion is incomplete. This is your visual warning that the furnace is operating in an
unsafe manner. If soot is present, immediately shut furnace down and contact your dealer or
a qualified service person.
