UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution
may result in reduced unit
component life.
Never operate your furnace
without the air filters in place.

tion.
4. If filter is dirty, it must be re-
placed. If your furnace air filter
needs to be replaced, be sure to
use the same size and type of fil-
ter that was originally supplied.
