SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
FLAME SENSOR (QUALIFIED SERVICER ONLY)
Under some conditions, the fuel or air supply can cre-
ate a nearly invisible coating on the flame sensor. This
coating acts as an insulator causing a drop in the flame
sense signal. If the flame sense signal drops too low the
furnace will not sense flame and will lock out. The flame
sensor should be carefully cleaned by a qualified servicer
using emery cloth or steel wool. Following cleaning, the
flame sense signal should be as indicated in the Speci-
fications Sheet.
FLUE PASSAGES (QUALIFIED SERVICER ONLY)
The heat exchanger flue passageways should be in-
spected at the beginning of each heating season.
