10 - Is pressure switch closed? Obstructed flue will
cause unit to shut off at pressure switch. Check flue
and outlet for blockages.
11 - Are flame rollout switches tripped? If flame rollout
switches are tripped, call the service technician for
inspection.
Heating Sequence Of Operation (follow steps below)
1 - When thermostat calls for heat, combustion air
blower starts.
2 - Combustion air pressure switch proves blower
operation. Switch is factory-set and requires no
adjustment.
3 - After a 15-second prepurge, the hot surface ignitor
energizes.
4 - After a 20-second ignitor warm-up period, the gas
valve solenoid opens. A 4-second trial for ignition
period begins.
5 - Gas is ignited, flame sensor proves the flame, and
the combustion process continues.
6 - If flame is not detected after first ignition trial, the
ignition control will repeat steps 3 and 4 four
more times before locking out the gas valve
("WATCHGUARD" flame failure mode). The ignition
control will then automatically repeat steps 1 through
6 after 60 minutes.
7 - To interrupt the 60-minute "WATCHGUARD" period,
move thermostat from "Heat" to "OFF" then back to
"Heat." Heating sequence then restarts at step 1.

Furnace should operate at least 5 minutes before check-
ing gas flow. Determine time in seconds for two revolu-
tions of gas through the meter. (Two revolutions assures a
more accurate time.) Divide by two and compare to time in
TABLE 8. Remove temporary gas meter if installed.
NOTE - To obtain accurate reading, shut off all other gas
appliances connected to meter.Supply Pressure Mea-
surement
On multiple unit installations, each unit should be checked
separately, with and without units operating. Supply pres-
sure must fall within range listed in TABLE 9.
Check Manifold Pressure
1 - Remove the threaded plug from the outlet side of
the gas valve and install a field-provided barbed
fitting. Connect measuring device "+" connection to
barbed fitting to measure manifold pressure.

Start unit and allow 5 minutes for unit to reach
steady state.
2- After allowing unit to stabilize for 5 minutes, record
manifold pressure and compare to value given in
TABLE 9. Make manifold adjustment if necessary
3 - Shut unit off and remove manometer as soon as an
accurate reading has been obtained.
4 - Restart unit and check for any gas leaks. Seal any
leaks if found.
For safety, connect a shut-off valve between the
manometer and the gas tap to permit shut off of gas
pressure to the manometer.

Furnace should operate minimum 15 minutes with correct
manifold pressure and gas flow rate before checking com-
bustion. Take combustion sample beyond the flue outlet

High Altitude

Units may be installed at altitudes up to 7,500 ft. above
sea level. See Table 9 for de-rate manifold values. Units
installed at altitude of 4501 - 7,500 feet require a pressure
switch change which can be ordered separately. Table 11
lists pressure switch requirements at high altitude. The
combustion air pressure switch is factory-set and requires
no adjustment.
