IMPORTANT
FACTS
Your furnace
must have adequate
airflow
for efficient
combustion
and safe ventilation.
Do not enclose
it in
an airtight
room or "seal"
it behind
solid doors.
To minimize
the possibility
of serious
personal
injury,
fire, furnace
damage,
or improper
operation,
carefully
follow
these
safety
rules:
Donot
store or use gasoline or other flam-
mable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of
this or any other appliance,
• Do not cover the furnace, store trash or debris near
it, or in any way block the flow of fresh air to the unit.
° Combustion
air must be clean and not contaminated
with chlorine or fluorine. These compounds are present
in many products around the home, such as: water soft-
ener salts, laundry bleaches, detergents,
adhesives,
paints, varnishes, paint strippers, waxes, and plastics.
Make sure the combustion
air for your furnace does
not contain any of these compounds.
During remodel-
ing be sure the combustion
air is fresh and uncontam-
inated. If air with vapors of these compounds
is burned
in your furnace, the heat exchangers
and metal vent
system may deteriorate.
NOTE: Do not use this furnace if any part has been
under water, hmnediately
call a qualified service tech-
nician to inspect the furnace and to replace any part of
the control system, electrical components,
and any oil
control which has been under water.
NOTE: The qualified installer or agency must use only
factory-authorized
replacement
parts, kits, and acces-
sories when servicing this product.
The furnace burner control has a safety device which
must be manually reset. If the furnace is left unattended
fbr an extended period of time, have it checked period-
ically for proper operation. This precaution will prevent
problems associated with no heat, such as frozen water
pipes, etc.
