NOTE: If the furnace burner has any residuals
of metal protectant or lubricants used
during manufacture of the furnace, it
may smoke slightly when the furnace is
used for the first time and may set off
your smoke alarm.
We recommend that you provide
adequate ventilation when using the
furnace for the first time to avoid a
nuisance smoke alarm.
We do not recommend removing the
smoke alarm battery.
