WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or
maintenance can cause personal injury, loss of life, or
damage to property.
Installation and service must be performed by a licensed
professional installer (or equivalent) or a service agency.
IMPORTANT
This unit must be matched with an indoor coil as
specified in Lennox Product Specification bulletin. Coils
previously charged with HCFC-22 must be flushed.
WARNING
Electric Shock Hazard. Can cause injury or
death.
