(located on the fan) controls the direction of operation (down for forward, up for reverse).
Stop the fan first before reversing the operation direction!
™ NOTE: During cooler temperatures, set your fan settings to "low," and set
the fan to turn clockwise to pull warm air from the ceiling back towards the
floor. In the summer, the fan should turn counterclockwise to keep air mov-
ing.
For additional information refer to the manufacturer's owner's manual.
Furnace
The furnace installed in your recreation vehicle is controlled by a 12-volt DC thermostat.
Depending on your model, there may be up to two thermostats enabling you to control the
temperature to your comfort level. The furnace requires both 12-volt power and propane
gas for full operation. Make sure you have sufficient power available before operating your
furnace.
A qualified RV technician should perform all furnace maintenance at least once a year (more
often depending on furnace usage). Never attempt to repair the furnace yourself.
Ducting and Return Air
All heat discharges, registers and return air grills must be free and clear of obstructions.
This includes all closeable registers that are intended to reduce airflow, do not shut it off
completely.
The furnace should be inspected periodically (monthly during the heat-
ing season) for presence of soot on the vent. Soot is formed whenever
combustion is incomplete. This is a visual warning that the furnace is op-
erating in an unsafe manner. If soot is observed on the vent, immediately
shut the furnace OFF and contact a qualified service agency. Operating
the furnace under this condition could lead to serious property damage,
personal injury or loss of life.
To ensure your personal safety, do not obstruct or alter the furnace in any
manner. Do not install screens over the vent for any reason. Screens will
become restricted and cause unsafe furnace operation. For your safety,
only the manufacturer's factory authorized parts should be used on your
furnace.
™ NOTE: For RV models with touch screens, the furnace controls may be in-
cluded on the selectable menu screens of the touch screen.
