The operation of your unit is controlled by the indoor temperature
control (thermostat). You simply adjust the thermostat and it maintains
the indoor temperature at the level you select. Most thermostats of
heating and cooling systems have 3 controls: a temperature control
selector, a FAN control, and a SYSTEM or MODE control. Refer to your
thermostat owner's manual for more information.
To better protect your investment and to eliminate unnecessary service
calls, familiarize yourself with the following facts:
Cooling Mode
With the SYSTEM control set to COOL, your unit will run in cooling
mode until the indoor temperature is lowered to the level you have
selected. On extremely hot days, your unit will run for longer periods at
A210171
a time and have shorter "off" periods than on moderate days.
Gas Heat Mode
With the SYSTEM or MODE control of your indoor thermostat set to
HEAT, your unit will run in heating mode until room temperature is
raised to the level you have selected. On cold days and nights, your
system will typically run for longer periods of time and have shorter
"off" periods than on moderate days.

All routine maintenance should be handled by skilled, experienced
personnel. Your dealer can help you establish a standard procedure.
For your safety, keep the unit area clear and free of combustible
materials, gasoline, and other flammable liquids and vapors.
To assure proper functioning of the unit, flow of condenser air must not
