SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Recognize safety information. This is the safety-alert symbol A'_
When you see this symbol on the furnace and in instructions or
manuals, be alert to the potential for personal injury.
Understand the signal words: DANGER, WARNING, and
CAUTION. DANGER identifies the most serious hazards which
will result in severe personal injury or death. WARNING signifies
hazards which could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION
is used to identify unsafe practices which may result in minor
personal injury or product and property damage. NOTE is used to
highlight suggestions which will result in enhanced installation,
reliability or operation.
To minimize the possibility of serious personal injury, fire, furnace
damage, or improper operation; carefully follow these safety
rules:
• Your gas furnace uses air from outside the home for combustion
and vents flue gas to the outdoors. It is not to be installed using
indoor air for combustion. The vent pipe must terminate outside
the structure and must not be obstructed in any way. The
air-intake pipe must terminate outside the structure or in a well
ventilated area that is isolated from the living space and the
garage (e.g. well ventilated attic or crawlspace). Do not block or
obstruct air openings on furnace or spaces around furnace.
• Keep the area around your furnace clear and free of combustible
materials, gasoline, and other flammable liquids and vapors.
