For Your Safety - Suburban AIRXCEL NT-30SP User's Information Manual

14. Avoid direct contact with the outlet registers or vents as
they will become hot during the heating cycle.
15. Do not install air boosters in the duct system. Such
devices will cause the furnace to cycle on limit and to
have erratic sail switch operation.
16. Clothing or other flammable material should not be
placed on or near the appliance.
17. Always follow the Operating Instructions. Do not deviate
from the step-by-step procedures.
18. When considering add-on rooms, porch or patio,
attention must be given to the venting of your furnace.
For your safety, do not terminate furnace vent inside
add-on rooms, screen porch or onto patios. Doing so
will result in products of combustion being vented into
the room or occupied areas.
19. In any installation in which the vent of this appliance can
be covered due to the construction of the RV or some
special feature of the RV such as slide out, pop-up etc.
always insure that the appliance cannot be operated
by setting the thermostat to the positive "OFF" position
and shutting off all electrical and gas supply to the
appliance. Never operate furnace with vent covered.
Your furnace should be inspected by a qualified service
agency yearly before turning the furnace on. Particular
attention should be given to the following items:
1. Inspect furnace installation and vent termination to be
sure furnace is properly secured in place, that vent
terminates to the atmosphere and that vent tubes
overlap properly. (See installation manual supplied
with furnace.)
2. Inspect chamber and venting to assure that these
components are physically sound, without holes or
excessive corrosion and that the installation and/
or reinstallation is in accordance with Suburban's
Installation Instructions. (Reference installation manual
supplied with furnace.)
WARNING
It is imperative that the products of combustion
be properly vented to atmosphere and that all
combustion air supplied to burner be drawn
from outside atmosphere.
3. Check the base on which furnace is mounted. Be sure it
is physically sound, void of any sagging, deterioration,
etc.
4. Inspect furnace, the venting, ducting and the gas piping
to furnace for obvious signs of deterioration. Correct
any defects at once.
5. Inspect combustion chamber for restrictions in exhaust
or intake. It is imperative that the flow of intake
combustion air and the flow of exhaust gases being
expelled to the outside atmosphere not be obstructed.
Any soot or loose debris should be blown out using
compressed air. (See Figure 3.)
6. Inspect all gaskets. If any gaskets show signs of
leakage or deterioration, replace them. Safe operation
of the furnace depends on all gaskets being tight.
7. Inspect return air inlet openings to the furnace. Remove
any restrictions to assure adequate air flow.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING

READ BEFORE OPERATING
WARNING
If you do not follow these instructions exactly,
a fire or explosion may result causing property
damage, personal injury or loss of life.
A. This appliance does not have a pilot. It is equipped with
an ignition device which automatically lights the burner.
Do not light the burner by hand.
B. BEFORE OPERATING smell all around the appliance
area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because
some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
Extinguish any open flame.
•
• Evacuate all persons from the vehicle.
Shut off the gas supply at the gas container or source.
•
• Do not touch any electric switch or use any phone or
radio in the vehicle.
• Do not start the vehicle's engine or electric generator.
Contact the nearest gas supplier or qualified service
•
technician for repairs.
If you cannot reach a gas supplier or qualified service
•
technician, contact the nearest fire department.
• Do not turn on the gas supply until the gas leak(s) has
been repaired.
C. Do not use this furnace if any part has been under
water. A flood damaged furnace is extremely
dangerous. Attempts to use the furnace can result in
fire or explosion. A qualified service agency should be
contacted to inspect the furnace and to replace all gas
controls, control system parts, electrical parts that have
been wet or the furnace if deemed necessary.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
