Propane Furnaces Only

WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
To avoid death, personal injury or property
damage due to explosion or fire, install a gas
detecting warning device. Since the odor-
ant in propane gas can be reduced by iron
oxide (rust), a gas detecting warning device
is the only reliable method to detect pro-
pane gas leaks.
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
If the gas furnace is installed in a basement,
an excavated area or a confined space, it is
strongly recommended to contact a propane
supplier to install a gas detecting warning
device in case of a gas leak.
• Since propane gas is heavier than air, any
leaking gas can settle in any low areas or
confined spaces.
• Propane gas odorant may fade, making
the gas undetectable except with a warn-
ing device.
An undetected gas leak will create a danger
of explosion or fire. If the presence of gas is
suspected, follow the instructions on the
cover of this manual. Failure to do so could
result in SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR
DEATH.
II. Operation

Thermostat

There are many types and styles of thermostats but the op-
eration is usually similar. BE SURE TO BECOME FAMIL-
IAR WITH YOUR THERMOSTAT. The simplest type of ther-
mostat only starts and stops the furnace to maintain the
proper room temperature. The most widely used types will
control both heating and cooling functions and will have a
Fan Switch with Auto and ON settings. On Auto, the Circu-
lating Air Blower will cycle on/off with the furnace but if
switched to ON it will run constantly whether or not the fur-
nace is on.
In addition there are thermostats that automatically switch
from Heating to Cooling and with night setbacks. The night
set-back, or multiple set-back type, will lower the tempera-
ture at night or during the day when no one is at home.

General Information

This furnace is equipped with an electronic ignition device
which lights the burners. It also has an induced draft blower
to draw combustion air into the heat exchanger.
Keep both doors in place except for inspection and mainte-
nance. An interlock switch prevents furnace operation if the
blower door is not in place.
Do not use this furnace if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified servicer to inspect the furnace
and to replace any part of the control system and any gas
control which has been under water.
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
To avoid death, personal injury or property
damage do not remove any internal com-
partment covers. Electrical components are
contained in both compartments. Contact a
qualified servicer at once if an abnormal
condition is noticed.
